    I use my utility trailer for stuff like loose dirt/rock, but the truck gets pretty much everything else. If I have something too tall to put under the tonneau, I can either flip a section of it out of the way, or pop it off in less than 10 minutes.

    Brian, Sean, cute kids guys. My son and first kid was born august 11th, so seeing your pics makes me look forward to it all. You just don't know wha you are missing until they are actually here huh...

    As for my bed, I picked up a couple of 251cf gas cylinders today and my 170 pound Great Dane rides/slobbers back there, but anything that could gouge or dent the bedliner goes in my trailer,.. Princess truck... Ha

    I use the bed for anything and everything. It was supposed to be my “farm truck” but I fell in love with it, and basically became my daily. :D

    Eta - not sure I’d recommend 1600 lb loads in the bed.
