Truck survey

Hey all, I'm looking at starting up a truck accessory company to make it easier to carry gear in a truck bed. Part of the research is a survey on how you use your bed now:

If you have a truck and can take a couple minutes to answer some questions for me it'd be a big help. The survey is mobile friendly and you don't need to type anything.

Thanks in advance for the help.

I don't have a truck but I took it anyway. I answered no to "do you own a truck?"

I'm super interested in what you have in mind. My biggest gripe is that I don't have a way to secure the bed at times. I'd like some sort of a lockable hard cover that is easily removable for times when I need to transport larger items like bikes, etc. Yes, i know there are a few different options available, but I haven't seen anything yet that really trips my trigger.

I did the whole thing. then it asked what state it was so I lied and said washington (closest state to me)

if you wanted only american responses then sorry (and say it at the beginning)

basically all I need is a truck bed with good places to tie down a tarp. I have one of those boxes that sits on the side of the box so there is room for surfboards and skis underneath it still. It is nice to have for keeping stuff dry and secure.

I did the survey, even though the truck I use the most is an f450 ;]

prius is stupid. if I needed to drive around town I would buy a little diesel. But I have a bike and a bus pass so I have no use for a city vehicle.
