re: custom bed with storage
Back in October i asked for suggestions on a custom wood bed with storage and had a few replies but ended up with this. Under the seating on top stores my battery, starter relay, small toolbox, 3 folding chairs, and some cleaning supplies. Next on the list is to install the led lighting and the tailgate switch so when the gate goes down the lights go on. Padded vinyl trim down the sides in the center and finish all edges than take it all apart and apply five coats of clear lacquer, wet sand and buff and reassemble. Hear is a few pics as where i stand for now.

Re: custom bed with storage
Looks like a mini stepside in there. As long as you don't have to haul anything big you'll be OK. Of course I'm sure you thought of that.
