Pick Up Truck Swimming Pool
What it is: A pool made from a pickup truck bed
What You’ll Need: A pool liner
Estimated Cost to Make: $20
Paddling pools are great, but they often pop or get misshapen. If you happen to be the proud owner of a pickup truck, then consider investing in some pool liner. In no time at all, you could have a sturdy metal pool right there in your truck bed that can hold the whole family. Of course, you can’t let the kids get too crazy or they might get a bruise or two, but it’s a wonderful idea. There are even companies out there that sell liners, especially for trucks. It’s a great way to customize your Ford for the summer!

Have pool, will travel. I was worried when I did not see your post at the usual time. You will see that reflected in a verse coming later this week. Have a great holiday weekend, and no diving in the pool!

I think you may have underestimated the cost. Sure $20 for pool liner but how much for the truck ?
