If you are reading this article then it seems clear that you do drive a truck commonly referred to as a Ute here in Australia. It is the perfect vehicle for those of us who are tradesmen by profession and who have accumulated many tools over the years as well as essential machinery. We need to drive such a truck so that we can get to the hard-to-reach jobs and we also need a vehicle that can carry everything that we need for a full day’s work. If you are contemplating whether or not to install a canopy on your vehicle then it’s probably because you’re running out of space fast.
Investing in a Ute canopy is probably one of the smartest decisions that you’re going to make this year and there is a reason why there are literally thousands of them installed every single year all across the country. If you do not have such a thing installed then all you have to use is the floor space of the tub on your vehicle and nothing more. If you need a little bit of a push because you’re sitting on the fence when it comes to spending your money on a canopy then hopefully the following reasons why it makes perfect sense will help you to make the changes to your vehicle.
- You get more space – It has been mentioned before but it is certainly worth mentioning again. The canopy just creates so much more space for you and you’re only restricted to its size. You can make essential changes like installing additional shelves and drawers where you can keep all of your tools and other building accessories that you need to do your job properly. If you are just relying on the tub that comes with your vehicle then it’s going to make life very difficult for you indeed.
- So many more storage options – If you’re not familiar with the amount of internal storage that you can get then you should know that your canopy comes with toolboxes, under-body boxes, storage drawers and so much more. You need to be able to get your tools as quickly as possible and to find the right tool for the job, and so adding a canopy will basically transform your current truck into a workstation that is available to you wherever you are and wherever you have driven to.
- It is highly customisable – Just don’t look at your canopy and think that what you see is all that it can do. You can customise it to suit the particular job that you do every single day and you can actually get made-to-order canopies that will change how you do your work. It is entirely possible to have a purpose-built canopy and this is money wisely invested.
Hopefully, these three reasons will help you to make a more informed decision and also make the right one for your particular job every day.
