FLEXBED Mods for Football Season

[orrrnicholas]

This week I installed the Builtright Bedside Rack System Molle Panel. The rack system made it easy to mount my 28" TV next to the outlet in the bed. By using a google chromecast device (plugged into the TV's USB outlet) I am able to cast my YouTube TV account to the TV. I have a mobile hotspot that both the chromecast and casting device are connected to. The mount folds perfectly so the TV is flush to the wall and it is the perfect height that my trifold tonneau cover does not interfere with anything.

I plan on making bonfires in the backyard and using the setup to watch the games or do some sort of tailgating. Overall the setup took about 30 mins of work and is very easy to remove if needed. What do you think?

After reading the title, I was definitely expecting a finger (paper) football setup in the bed.

I'm still impressed.

Next mod is a tailgate cooler, right?

Nice. But the screen is too small to watch a game!

Beats a Cell Phone screen!

Needs some "cush tush seats" for the cheerleaders to sit on!

How will you power the monitor?

I have the luxury package which includes the power outlet in the bed. Works like a charm!

Super nice, getting ready here but not sure for what. Added 12v power to cubby. Used to power new $199.00 12v freezer fridge with Blue Etti back up.

That tailgate cooler looks great. Looks like it’ll hold a couple foot long subs and a six-pack.

I agree. It's pretty cool and I think the drain plug just drains from the middle? Been a while since I have been on those forums after cancelling my order

I think the new Lightning has something cool like that too in it's "frunk" lol.

Where there is a will, there is a way. They do make aftermarket ones for some trucks.

I really like the simple painted bed with the Maverick mat. The TV setup is pretty slick, but so will that tailgate be come winter. I almost busted my head last Jan. I put the tailgate liner on, but I think yours would be awesome with a clear spray liner over the paint, if such a thing exists.

Thanks for sharing the bedside rack. That looks really useful.

The TV removes from the mount with 2 screws. I keep a torque wrench in the cubby if I need to remove it: takes about 1 minute to unmount. I’m sure I’ll remove it come winter time
