Tail Gate Net
I am looking to ditch the heavy as$ tail gate for a tail gate net. Not just them flimsy ass ones that get stretched out and sag, but one that is made out of a kind of webbing that will hold multiple pounds if need be if any of you have any advice on where to find one please let me know.

not many people run them, the only one thats decent is called the turbo net... they use an actual metal frame to back their structure up... the rest all suck... the vynil cant hold a load at all, and thye all stretch.....
i have seen some that are made out of the same material as tow straps, but they are hard to find and cost around $100
here is somethingelse to think about: i have done a lot of research on this subject net or gate... the tailgate is not that heavy at all... and the tailgate net doesnt increase gas mileage in any real world tests or even on paper, any gain is negligible if any..... also nets cannot support a load.....

I was under the impression they went out of style in the 80's with 8inch roll bars and Smile Face light covers.
However, Pronet or Pro Net makes a nice net that fits what you need. They are about $50 and a google search will list hundreds of places to buy from. The only problem might be fitment, as I recall they seemed to be sold by dimentions not application.
