The tonners were built for heavy hauling jobs. Most that I have seen have been pretty rough. I have a couple beds around here, but in the rust belt a good one would be even harder to find. What year tonner just so we know what he's looking for. On drives through out of the way places I NEVER stop scanning the driveways and side yards for utility trailers made from truck beds. I have found three good ones that way. One of them was a craigslist find in dry wheat country.
