re: Experience with the "Decked" truck bed storage system?

Pros-1) each drawer holds 200 lbs of gear. They are lockable. Fairly weather resistant. You can order foam inserts and custom cutout for gear. 2) it’s is a sturdy unit. I put my quad on top of it.
Cons- 1) EXPENSIVE. 2) Takes up a lot of space in the bed of the truck. I have a back flip tonneau cover and I have 8” of space. Which I can fold up the tonneau cover and you can put 2000 lbs on top of it. 3) I don’t like track system or the hold downs. Great concept. But it’s junk. I fabricated some plates and installed 4 holding points with some 1/2” hardware. Now I can yank on that ratchet strap.
I’ve had mine for over 4 years. It protects my tools and gear. I like that you can lock the drawers and the tailgate and it is pretty secure. It is designed more for the contractor. Go from job site to job site. It adds some weight to the back end and makes the truck ride a little smoother over these rough arse roads in Louisiana.
Am I happy with it. Yes, for the most part. Would I recommended it. Yes, but you better think about how you intend to use it. I think if I would have put a topper on the back it would make it much easier to recommend.
I hope this helps
