Toolbox

I've had a Husky brand in the past and I was not impressed. The lid leaked, and snow - forget it. I've also had 2 Weatherguards on 2 different trucks. They are about 3 times the price, but they last. With truck boxes, you do indeed get what you pay for.

Before I bought my first weatherguard, I asked a superintendent for a large contractor in the area what he thought of their weatherguard boxes. He told me when they used other brands, they would go through at least 2 boxes per truck (5 years or so). With the Weatherguards, they go through 2 trucks per box.

Spend the money and keep it forever.

I've got a Weatherguard. They are made by Knaack. The best money can buy IMO.

+1 They're not cheap, but construction, locks, and clear coat finish are excellent.
Get a carpet remnant and cut-to-fit to put in the bottom to keep things from sliding around.

I have a large job box, think it was called a gang box on here. Never tried it in my truck though, a question for those that have. Mine is pretty deep (30") and the lid is fairly heavy, it seems like it would be impossible to reach the bottom of it when it is in the truck bed?
Also seems like it would be hard to get the lid open without actually getting into the truck bed? Anyone that has done it before?
