Truck Bed Kitchen

[EP34FR]

Any pics or product links for truck bed kitchens?

Looking for something somewhat low-profile to fit into a pickup truck bed with a tonneau cover. Preferably something that could be removable, and that would wither pull or swing out far enough so that the tailgate wouldn't be in the way.

Most everything I see out there is fairly tall, meant to fit in the back of a Jeep or SUV.

There are several camp kitchens, chuck boxes, etc. (both built and bought) in the Kitchen, Cooking, and Recipes forum

I looked there, but really didn't see anything.

Found something on Drifta's website (https://www.drifta.com.au/product/drifta-pull-out-with-return-dpor/), but alas, they don't ship anything that large to the US :(

Contact HIVE at one time they were offering a slide out like you see in most off road teardrops

Email Drifta and get with Luke or Scott great guys and they will work with you on the shipping. They use DHL and it will be pricy but the product is worth it.

This fits under my bed cover and it works off the tailgate on the poles. I built it as a scout 25 years ago, its held up pretty good so far

Thanks for the suggestions. I drew up plans to make my own version of a Drifta DPOR. I'll let ya know how it turns out.

I’d be interested to see what you work out. Looking to do a similar thing for my Tacoma, under a tonneau. Maybe half of the bed that can slide out for the kitchen, and pull out when not camping. I’ve thought about using 80/20 as it’s like a big LEGO or erector set, and it’s lighter than wood. First photo is inspiration and the second photo my engineer friend just laughed at. :)

Any suggestions for a kitchen kit for an open bed truck setup? I like the looks of the King Charles Chuck Box from Trail Kitchens but don't know if it's waterproof.

That setup is sweet. It might be worth shipping over. They might not do it but there are shippers that will. Only question is what it is worth to you.

We did the same. Our poles would slide underneath for storage and to act as a way to carry the box with 2 people. Ours were quite large.

I know this is a bit old, but I have the King Charles and it’s definitely not waterproof.

I’ve thought about taking my drawer version and adding an external box (for those who don’t use a tonneau cover) that would make it more weather resistant
