Wood for a bed floor

Anyone know of a better deal than 275 shipped for the wood floor in pine for a short fleetside truck?

Re: Wood for a bed floor

Know any wood workers in your area? I just made a new floor for my stepside using only my table saw with a dado blade. Very easy to do.

I chose to use pressure treated decking boards for mine so total cost is about $35 dollars plus my time.

Re: Wood for a bed floor

I went through Brothers and got a set for about 250 less than a full price. It was still MAR-K products. I was very happy and satisfied, but did pay some shipping on it and understand why. I was glad I purchased the wood with holes already cut in it. MAR-K always has deals and shipping seems to be free allot on their adds, so I recommend them as well. To sum it up just keep looking and shopping till the right deal meets what you want to pay. GoodLuck on your searching.

Robert Noe not sure of his board name has it in Kingsport and it is in Oak probably for about 25-50 more than what you would be paying for pine. Just a thought?

Re: Wood for a bed floor

I don't know how long you can wait, but Mar-K had a deal earlier this year with 10% off and free shipping. It was a real good deal for me since all the good stuff is on the other side of the Mississippi from here. Maybe it will come around again...
