I have a 2002 Ford F150 shortbed truck and I was wondering how a toolbox would look on it.Would it make the bed look too short, like miniature?There is pictures of it in my gallery, tell me what you guys think.Oh, I didn't know if this was the right board to post this on, tell me if it's not or whatever.

 

I have a toolbox in the bed of my truck. It isn't visable from the sides. Its ok but my quad won't fit with the tailgate up now.

 

Yeh, but is your truck a shortbed?

 

I have a flareside shortbed and when I bought it it had one of those over the bed rail tool boxes and it did make the bed look much too short almost unuseable so I sold it to my neighbor to put in his stepside Chevy and picked up a small storage box that is not visible from outside of the bed at Wally World. Its enough to fit what I need to fit into it and easy to move around. It is secured to the bed by a cable and padlock.

 

I don't really have anything to store in a toolbox, I just like trucks with toolboxes. I'll probably save my money, not get a toolbox, get a lift for the truck, probably some speakers,maybe some new tires, and maybe some new rims. I was probably going to do all that anyway, but I'll have some extra cash now that I'm not buying a toolbox.

 

^ yeah good idea...if you don't need a toolbox...don't get one and spend it on some cool stuff..

 

It's not that I don't need one, I just don't need one real bad.The stuff I could put in a toolbox I could put under the back seat or whatever or in the glove box.

 

I got my toolbox only because it was $20. Bought it off a friend. But yeah, if you don't really have a use for one then don't get one.
