I'm sold on the box itself. I only have one question. Whats the space under the box and the truck bed? is it enough to slide a 6' ladder under my 6'4" bed and still be able to close the tail gate and not have it lay on an angle on top of the tail gate?
But it’s an option, so for some it may be a great benefit. Especially if you have a full load behind the box in the bed. A landscaper or gardener that is carrying yard equipment for example. They may just take out what they need but still want to get to other tools stored in the box.
What about sun fade over time? I haven't seen 1 advertisement on this box that says anything about whether it does or does not. Just curious, because the old plastic ones would. Will the warranty cover that if it does?
The ladder is not always necessary and the ladder does utilize the box storage space. It would have been nicer if RAM put a shoe/boot hole step in the side of the bumper that allowed you to jump into the bed.
Here's my problem. I know several guys who have the decked bed slide boxes. They all sag. In Southern Arizona, when it's 115+ in the shade the plastic will sag. Needless to say all the guys that had em ran a year then pulled it out. As we had 100 plus days consecutive that were well over 100 degrees. If I load that box with a couple hundred pounds how well is it going to hold up? Cool ideas, but not for anywhere it gets hot.
Have had one of these for three years about. Only complaints are the silver side handles and Decked logo are aluminum and corroded under the paint causing it to peel off and look like crap. The lid does take some effort to close on both ends (slamming it down) and the push buttons to open it get pretty stiff.
Seems nice, but that single lock seems like a security vulnerability. I'm not sure if it is just me, but I think I would've preferred a spot(s) to lock it down with padlocks instead.
I have a 2019 F-150 with the bed drawer system. There is 17.5" space in front that I want to install the crossover box in. Before I pay this amount for the crossover, I need to know that it will fit. When I look online it appears that these decked crossovers are not the same even though they appear to be. There can be up to 3" difference in sizes. The problem is that they don't all specify the important measurement that I am needing to confirm its depth front to back. Is there a service number with the decked company that I can call and discuss this to make sure I'm getting the correct model for my truck? Thanks!

How is the fit against the horizontal truck bed rail? Does it overlap that edge of the bed? The lid looks a bit close to the glass when open.
Ladder seems pointless…takes up space in the box.

If you’re short, if your truck is lifted, if your bed is full.. lots of use cases for this
You can get it without the ladder.
That ladder was what made me wana buy it

This box will be grey in one year of Florida sun

It’s a legit lifetime warranty. No other company is honoring that on a truck tool box. Weather guard’s limited life time warranty is a joke.
Can you buy the ladder separately?

Can the ladder be mounted on the driver's side? It'd be much more convenient in my opinion
No

Is there a mount to frame option? Mightve encountered a little bit of salt...
Have the locks been tested by The Lock Picking Lawyer? If not you probably want to consult him.
My uws box has been great at a fourth the price so I’m ok with that 👍🏻
I changed out their clamp system. Those J hooks they give you are a joke
The price is a bit steep. I have the Decked sliding bed draw system and it’s only a $300 price difference.
But it takes up so much bed space. Way too deep if you want to set a pallet in there.
what if it rains
@@Protoolreviews No, rain falling on me when loading it
@@infdox9051 lol!!!!!
👍👍👍👍
Tool boxes seem so dated to me, they look like such a hassle. I rather get a ridged Tonneau cover and get pelican boxes .
Until you need to put a pallet of something taller than the bed in the back...
@@sputnik9708 that’s why you have a tonneau cover .
mast
sorry ill keep my weatherguard
How come? Trying to decide between the 2 for a new truck.
@@brianb6407 too small inside. the plastic needs reinforcement like in the first min of the video
