Good Job, Soldier

It takes one helluva determined troop to come up with a Battlefield Improvisation like that to earn the title UNIT REDNECK

Great minds think alike, I just ran across your thread in the midst of setting my Deuce for a Concert. I was out shopping for a small liner to create a pool in the back.

My biggest concern is will the water stay in the pool for the 10 mile drive.

That is my most recent tallbike. Her name is "lickety split" due to the curves and the girls frames in a scissor position......and the gears I guess.

No......No it will not. I mean some will, sure it will be wet back there but not full. Believe me every time I hit the brakes even fairly gently it flooded the cab floor with all the splashing and sloshing. your best bet is to fill it someplace closer or refill it when you get there.

Yep, adding this to the list of uses. I'm totally going to do this!!

I put a pool in the back of my deuce last weekend for the syracuse nationals. do a search for "syracuse nationals" and it will come up i had 17 inches of water in the back and cruzing around the show. next year im thinking i need a water slide

This is a job for for a GL supplied Trailer Mounted Water Purification Unit... then you can just grab any-old water and make it clean enough to swim or bathe in.

hmmmm... add an M149.......

Deuce-Load of Water....

Just crunched the numbers...

Deuce bed volume (approx. 8' x 12' x 15") x water @ 62.416#/cu.ft. =

JUST UNDER 7500# ! ! ! (within the on-road limits for an M35.)

If you wait until the load FREEZES, then you won't have any problem with it SLOSHING out of the bed, but it would be too hard to swim in.... not to mention TOO DANG COLD!!!

Just put this on my "to do" list when I get my truck!! Man, I can't wait!!

If you had a dump bed and let it freeze you could have some serious fun. *whistles*

 

[Flyingvan911]

Coat the bed with bed liner and put seals around the tailgate. I portable pool that's ready all the time. You could statr a portable pool party business.

Where you live, i doubt it would ever freeze.

It got bad in Dallas this past winter for about 4-5 days. I dont want to drive in that again with stupid people.

This was one of the pics from last weekend

Well, I'm wishing for cool weather. So would a hot tub slide in the bed.... with it being taller and narrower it might not slosh around so much...
