It would look tuff, but your gas mileage would suck, and your center of gravity (in two planes) would be seriously affected.
I always have wanted to put a conferr type rack over the rear axle and on top of the bed sides, to carry a spare and gas cans. Then I'd still have the full bed for everything else.

shell?
Hix have you ever thought of a shell? you can get some really cool ones a Cnavas back looks sweet! then a rack on there looks TOUGH. I think it would look good just on the top of the truck too! As for the gas milage I only noticed about 1-2 mpgs with my rack off versus on, I just got it back on, and I love it! Besides 2 mpgs can be made up with a mile or two an hour decrease not that big a deal really!
