Putco 16-20 Toyota Tacoma - 6ft (Standard Bed) Venture TEC Rack

Tacoma owners with the longer 6-foot standard bed have more cargo real estate to work with, and the Putco Venture TEC rack takes full advantage of it. Sized specifically for the 2016-2022 Toyota Tacoma's 6-foot 2-inch bed, this rack gives you a raised platform for hauling gear that would otherwise eat up your bed space -- rooftop tents, recovery equipment, extra lighting, or work tools.

The rack itself is made from 6061 T6 aluminum, which keeps the overall weight manageable. The real draw is the patent-pending TEC channel system running along the rack structure. These channels accept Putco's growing lineup of modular accessories, including molle panels, gear mounts, tent mounts, tables, and grab handles, all sold separately. You bolt on what you need and reconfigure when the job changes.

Installation uses stake pocket brackets that slot into the Tacoma's factory stake pockets. No drilling, no permanent changes to the bed. That is a big deal if you want to keep the truck looking stock or plan to remove the rack seasonally. The design also leaves enough room for a tonneau cover to sit beneath the rack, so you do not have to sacrifice bed protection for overhead cargo space.

For those without stake pockets, Putco offers alternative mounting solutions. The Venture TEC system is designed to adapt to different truck configurations, so there is usually a way to make it work regardless of your specific setup.
