We Test the ECOTRIC 1000 LBS Truck Bed Rack: Worth It?

When we unpacked the ECOTRIC truck bed rack (which arrived in two separate packages as noted), we were immediately impressed by its robust construction. The adjustable height range of 58″-69″ makes it versatile for different truck models, while the 1000-pound weight capacity certainly promises heavy-duty performance.

The powder-coated finish has held up well against scratches and weather exposure. While the price point is higher than universal options, we found the perfect fit and integration with our Polaris ATV more than justified the investment.
