Well new to me anyway. It's a 95 Chevy k3500 4x4 4-door. Now I can haul my bees, some helpers and my loader wherever I want.
Here is a before the conversion picture.

Cool! I want, I want, I want one too!
Of course I gues I could take the bed off my extended cab 4X4 and put on a flatbed. The flat bed is definitely better for hauling bee hives, bales or straw and hay, and other large bulky items. I could get at least 40 bales of hay on that flatbed and can only fit 24 on my PU.
Man, that's certainly uptown! I love the new truck, great set up Dallas! How many pallets/boxes can you stack?

Thanks guys, It is the same bed I had put on my other truck which was only a half ton. It will hold 24 hives on pallets single stacked and 48 doubled up like most around here do. It has only a 8x8 bed, think of what I could do with a 14' bed. :)
Lookin good Dallas, almost like you know what your doing LOL JK,,
like the Jefferson's theme song, MOVING ON UP!!!!!!!! Want be long he will be showing off his new "Kenworth" ;) , good going man!!!!!!
Crew Cab, cool. Nice looking truck.

Nice everybody gotta have one. What could you do with 14 ft bed 2 pallets high, 2 wide, very 3 foot = 64 hives that is 4way pallets. Can get 3 high if single story hives. Anyway that's how I figure how many I can load when shopping for trailers. Incase it'll help someone. I like the cab room plenty for help and bee stuff that don't need to get wet. I want our next truck to have a extended cab too. Maybe not a crew cab but something and that 4x4 is the bomb as my kids say you gonna like that. I did more than I thought on our first that was 4x4.
Looks like a good hauler.
