If i were you i'd go with the Delta because of the name. Both are built good but i've always heard of Delta lasting longer from guys i know. They always abuse them as they work well drilling. We don't have delta boxes on our trucks. we just pickup whatevers cheapest. My grandpa owns a construction company. Just my $0.02

I would say the opposite, but for the same reasons... I just have always thought Weatherguards lasted longer and were higher quality.

Although they're both great brands of tool boxes...

I'm sure you'll be pleased with either one, but me, I'd go w/ the Weatherguard.

I think you made the right choice. I have a black Weatherguard on my truck and I love it. It's strong enough that I can stand on it to wash/wax the truck and it doesn't flex. Rap on it and it even sounds tough compared to some of the cheaper brands. I paid $400 for mine a couple years ago. It's kind of high in the back window, but I can use my side mirrors well enough for backing up anyplace. I've had mine for about 3 years now and it's still strong as ever and doesn't leak a bit.

I've had leaks with Delta's. No leaks ever since switching to Weatherguard. The Weatherguard seems more sturdy as well, the lids haven't bowed and the hinges and latches have lasted without a problem.
