    Utes with camping pods - Pics only, please

    Hi all.

    Welcome to the Ute/Trayback Section.

    I've started this thread because there's a few of us that now own ex Telstra 'podded' trucks, and trucks (Utes) with pods added onto them.

    I ask you nicely, not to comment on the pics you see, as there are plenty of other threads to respond.

    None of us 'own' this thread, but would like to see it remain pictures only.

    Thanks in anticipation.

    Take care out there.
