CARGO LIKE A PRO
STEEL CARGO BED
- More cargo bed volume than any competitor, from 62.9 to 89.1 cu. ft.†
- High-strength, roll-formed steel bed gives the truck bed excellent durability
- 12 standard cargo tie-downs – rated up to 500 lbs. per corner†
- Rear and side task LED lighting
- Available 120V electrical outlet in the bed
CARBON-FIBER COMPOSITE BED
- Carbon-fiber composite material provides excellent scratch, dent and corrosion resistance
- This carbon-fiber composite bed naturally resists corrosion, helping the bed withstand weathering to maintain a premium appearance
- CarbonProTM removes roughly 100 lbs. from the overall vehicle mass (when compared to the steel bed with a spray-in liner) — making it remarkably light
- CarbonPro increases the already-generous cargo volume of Sierra Limited’s steel bed by 1 cu. ft.
- CarbonPro features three molded-in sections for wheels and two additional tie-downs (14 total) to ease the loading and securing of dirt bikes and ATVs
