A truck rack with a platform mounts over a pickup bed and within a pickup canopy, leaving a generally unobstructed view through the pickup rear window. The platform is supported above the cab rear window in its store position but lowered on one end for loading as the other end pivots on a frame. To minimize valuable space within the canopy above the window, the platform locates in store position between upper frame members. In a preferred embodiment, the rack is supported in a supplemental frame that pivots on a primary frame forward in the truck bed. When released from a lock position, the rack moves longitudinally, forward and rearward in the truck bed, in the supplemental frame for ease of loading. The platform is supported in the supplemental frame by a wheel extending from each of the platform and the supplemental frame received in a corresponding channel in each of the platform and supplemental frame, respectively, such that the platform is supported by a wheels forward on the platform and rearward on the supplemental frame at all relative positions of the platform in the supplemental frame.
