OK guys I have a decision to make on the next step for my truck build.
I bought the truck in my sig to be used as a service truck for the towing part of my biz. I had planned on putting a flatbed on it since I do use a gooseneck trailer quite often. Recently I have found myself leaning towards a utility/service body on the truck. Both have pros as well as cons. With the utility body I will lose the gooseneck towability, but I will gain the full deck of a flatbed. I won't have near the tool and supplies storage with the flatbed that I would have with the service body, could be overcame though with some add on underbed boxes from Tractor Supply. With the service body I will have ample storage for tools, welder, air compressor, straps and the like. I am sure that there are other things that I am forgetting here.
I respect ya'lls opinions. Help a brother out. What do ya'll think?
