Decked for Tacoma, Colorado and other mid-sizes trucks

[OverlandHiker]

This is an entertaining intro to the Decked drawer system for mid-sized trucks.

@mtnhabitoverland on here is one of the reps out here for the Decked systems.

Looks pretty cool for small trucks, I'd like to see them in person.

WHOA! I love that thing! Certainly not cheap!

Two guys I work with have them in their full size work trucks. Both bought them at Northern Tool with a discount coupon (Northern is always running discounts). They both "SAY" their final price was under $1k (but they both "SAY" a lot of things). I will vouch that the boxes/drawers are well built and stand up to a bunch of abuse.

How are they for someone without a topper? Water tight?

So far, so good! I’ve had them in rain and snow and they’re bone dry.

I found a way to modify the ammo can lids so they can’t be removed by passers by.

With the tailgate up, the retaining rod can’t be removed.

I was really tempted to get one of these, and still like the idea. By the end of this year we will be living full-time in an Airstream, so my truck will essentially become my garage. For now, I've settled on a bed box, though.

That's a great simple and cheap idea for security!

I have these in my Tacoma without a topper. I've never had water get into the drawers or the ammo cans. I've run in rain, snow, and car washes, and have never had any sign of water infiltration.

I did 3 days on the White Rim Trail last month and got a little bit of dust in them, but nothing serious.

The drawers are tough, they roll VERY easily and latch firmly open and closed.

I recommend these if you're looking to be able to carry tools, recovery gear, (I have my camp kitchen in one drawer) and other stuff while not having boxes rattle around your bed. The other thing I like is that I can use all my bed space because the system covers the wheel well humps. A sheet of plywood or drywall lays flat.

I've even slept on them - corner to corner is almost 7 feet of flat space.

I'm very happy with them and with the way the company has treated me.
