First Post
Hey everyone,
First post here and I have to say I like the site. I just picked up my scab this past Monday and the accessories have already started. I have some step bars that should be here next week and I think I will be getting some more dress up stuff here shortly. My wife wants me to get a truck box but I can't decide on which one to get. We would only use it to store a suitcase or two when we go on a road trip. It won't actually be used for tools. I did see at my local Pep Boys a plastic Delta box that they have on sale for $70.00. Anyone have any experience with these and is it a good deal. I realize the metal boxes are alot sturdier but if this plastic one could store light stuff and not sag it would probably be on the truck. Any inputs?
Thanks
Mark

Hey Mark, welcome to FTE! As far as a box for your truck, it's probably not a bad deal for the money, but my concern would be that it takes away open space from the bed. That's why I got a roll-up tonneau; to have dry storage and still get full availability of the bed.
But, if your WIFE is telling you what to get, then definitely LISTEN to her!! Now, get her thinking about cat-back dual exhausts!
