    Sorry for the delay in replying, and thank you everyone.



    logansryche - 20-30mpg? That's insane. What kind of setup do you have? I'm getting about 17. Also, there is a tiny tiny cooler for something (maybe the a/c I thought) in front of the bottom right corner of the radiator.
    ThatTubaDude - I hadn't thought about airbags. What would be the difference between that and add a leaf other than being adjustable?
    sawmilleng- Thank you very much for bringing that up. It's 1500lbs here in CA, so I was probably going over that even with my 4x8. Will have to look into brakes not only to comply, but for safety. Also, I like the idea of going through it myself. Not only will feel better, but will get to know the truck a lot more.
    matador - I was thinking the truck should be ok with the weight too. The farthest I haul significant weight is *usually* 10 miles.
    Metalbestos- What about a sign with "Giraffe Recycling" on the side, and some stuffed animals hanging from it?
    spinroch - Should I return with the truck too?
    badkarma506 - I have looked at those for my old toyota. Was consdering one of those, but also clamping 1x6s on the sides to create walls.
    matador - I like the sides you made, and I also would like something easily removeable. Was thinking more like (if I don't get a lumber rack) of having steel bars fashioned for the posts.
