McCoys has some galvanized water troughs on sale and they're suggesting using them as raised beds .
I've used plastic barrel liners and troughs for years .

Anybody ever use these metal versions for veggie gardening ?

Pros/cons ?

Just provide good drainage.

Have not used them but seems like they could get pretty hot.

They won't get to hot. Take the drain plug out to allow drainage.
