re: DECKED Drawer System: Thoughts?

I have one in a single cab Tacoma. It holds all the stuff that would normally clutter up my interior. I mainly use it during hunting season to hold all my gear. For a contractor like yourself, it would be invaluable. I usually take mine out during the summer so I can haul coolers, chainsaws, and firewood that I wouldn’t want visible (coolers/chainsaws) that would be easy targets for thieves. It takes up so much depth in my bed that it’s more of a hindrance when hunting season is over. The initial installation takes a few hours, mounting brackets and setting it up to be level, but taking it out and putting back in is quick. I also have a topper that I’ve never installed, but it along with the decked system would be awesome. I bought mine new, open box for like $650 a couple years ago and have no regrets. Full price for my use would’ve been a hard pill to swallow. I’ve never had any water intrusion issues in the drawers either. If you decided on down the road that it doesn’t work for you..they hold their value and are easy to sell.

Only downside that I hear people talk about is that the drawers don’t slide all the way out and you have to reach deep for whatever is way back. Never been a problem for me, it’s just how it’s designed so it can hold all the weight. You can load it down heavy in the drawers and on top. It’s tough as nails.
