Who has a Pickup with the Flat tray ala Aus style?

Post by graham1 »

Tinus has planted a bloody seed in my head that I cant get out now - a Patrol pickup, but with a flat tray on the back. We were just chatting about the bakkies the other day, and I said I just dont really like the look of the bakkies, then he mentioned the flat tray possibility. A bit of scrolling through google images, and the ones with the shortened flat trays have caught my eye big time! So basically no overhang past the back wheels, I think that looks so cool.

So anyway, does anyone have flat tray patrols here? and if so, chuck some pics up, as well as any thoughts, comments etc.

Its not like Im going out tomorrow to get one, but its definitely caught my interest!

Haha. I wish I had never seen the photos! There’s just something about that shortened tray that makes them look awesome.

Is this what you have in mind?

I am also very keen to someday do a tray on a Patrol bakkie.

Photo also stolen of the internet.
