Another Ranger aero bed topper, (with ???)
So I've read a lot of the aero bed topper posts, (of course) and I'm going to give one a try.
goals:
1. Aerodynamic
2. Lockable for storage of gear/items.
3. Not horrifically ugly.
4. Durable in Wisconsin freezing/thawing winters
1 and 2 I can manage alright. :P Constuction materials will be marine painted plywood, (eventually fiberglassed if I think it is warranted, and/or I'm inspired for a second design).
I've had multiple ideas, but I'm leaning toward a lightweight, solid, one-piece shell that from a locked position slides to the rear and lifts up. I've been mulling this over a LONG time, but I'd still like to hear any advice/ideas.
On the subject of aeromodding, yes yes, I know there're LOTS of things that are possible, but does anyone know if the fender wells on this model truck are removable? (Bought this truck in 2005 before the gas hikes and economy drag.)
