Again... thanks for posting this, shelty.67. I feel anyone can drop tank or pull bed if they want.... but when you factor in roadside situations or heavy tonneau covers and lowered trucks, it can be a semi-stressful situation. I see myself doing this mod. That way, if there is stuff in the bed, I can simply move items out the way and get to work. I think GM should make this idea standard. New ideas happen everyday. And it would be a industry first, i think. Sounds good!!! patent bed with fuel door. Kool!!! I need to call my agent!!! I love do-it-yourselfers!!!!!
