I picked up the standard basket at Cabela's (www.cabelas.com) for $50, but it was only 19" wide so I had to modify to the width of my snowblower. I was better off just building it from scratch because I had to change out the 2"x2" tounge to a heavier gauge to accomodate the weight on top of extending it. But I have used it to move a recliner, christmas tree, snowblower, my brothers office furniture and just about anything else. The best part is, I don't have to remove that bulky third row seat all the time. Best investment I put on my truck so far!

I couldn't picture all the 101 different ways i use my X because there isn't enough web server space for all the pictures. After all is called a sport UTILITY vehicle. I favorite might be of the one time I picked up 100 helium filled balloons for a party. That was one light load, but completely filled X.

My first attempt at inserting an image (from my gallery):



Oh well, that didn't work, I guess I have to do some reading of the "how to's."

Looking at the pictures I don't think I'm using my Expy properly. I use mine as your basic one person commuter vehicle.
