My 2 pictures way up in this thread have loose weight in the bed which some warned about. I really appreciate the concern.

The type of head on collision that would bring this weight from the bed through the green box and into me in the cab would surely drive the steering wheel into my chops first. It would be a closed-casket funeral for sure.

(Sometimes, I use firewood for some winter weight.)
