Truck off-road question
Remember the video a few months ago with the super Chevy off-road truck (with JR)? If you do, let me ask some questions.
This truck bed has a rail system, as do all 900 truck, that allows easy attachment of accessory items.
So, what would an off-roader really appreciate in added accessory items that could be easily adapted to the truck rails.
I have come up with a hi-lift jack attachment, fuel/water can holders, a spare tire mount attachment (both vertical and horizontal), possibly even some type of cot setup with folding cots and a tent attachment.
Anyone think of anything else? (Yes it is work related...just maybe GM is starting to look seriously at the off-road truck market, small as it might be.)
Now, if there was a PTO device that was powered by the engine that created 120 volts, what attachments, other than compressors and a refrigerator full of beer would be items that people might want?

Re: Truck off-road question
Are these maybe ideas for the H3T?
Maybe a soft-back type attachment? I dunno what other powered items I'd want. I like the ideas you have so far though!

Lot's of sockets, both interior and exterior, so I can charge all my crap at the same time and run fun toys while camping.

Re: Truck off-road question
I don't remember a video, but have some ideas:
A propane tank mount (a ring w/quick release to hold the bottom).
Fold-out awning (for being outside in the rain, built one on the rack for my hummer and love it winter and summer)
Lockable storage container
The usualy mounts (mtn bike, kayaks, skiis, etc)
2" receiver to lock down the multi-mount winch
Beer bottle opener
That's it for attachments...for PTO items, I'd recommend a sawzall, extension lights, electric blanket (seems dorky, but the best female-friendly investment I've ever made), lots of outlets for sure, that's about all I can think of right now...

Re: Truck off-road question
Why a blender of course. I've got 29 Buffett CDs and I need Margaritas.
