UWS is garbage. Mine has been a POS since I bought it new and I'm only in it 5x's a week. Weatherguard is expensive but it's incredible how much better built they are.
speak for yourself, my last one was awesome for 8 years. yes, weatherguard is the best, but it's overkill for anyone thats not a contractor. Mine stores small tools for use here and there and it's perfect for that. i dont need that big bulky mfr for what im doing
UWS are far from garbage and are perfect at that price point. I've never heard a single person slight them until you.

2 of my buddies have had problems with theirs. Crooked logo, lid doesn’t shut all the way, etc. The bar for the latch on mine is crooked and I can’t do anything about it because it’s welded on there. O well, it’s on my new truck so I’ll just continue to deal with it

So I assume the outside is Line-X'd already? Who's gonna see it?
I've had a RKI on 3 trucks for 20+ years, while the outside doesn't
shine, the inside holds shite as well as always.

no. and its not about who sees it. its to prevent rust, scratches, dings, etc

I’m on my 3rd UWS box. First 2 were fine and the one I have now is OK with 1 aggravating issue. I have to insert the key into the lock at just the right angle and hold my mouth just right in order to unlock that mfer.

weatherguard is the best
I'd buy an RKI steel over anything

Sounds like you know what you want baw, do it to it if you have the cash and the desire.
I will say though, I've had a UWS box on my truck for 4 years now and don't have the first sign of rust. Inside or out

Putting bedliner on the inside will just cause it to remain forever dirty. There's no way you'd be able to wipe up spills
I bought a stall mat from TSC and cut it to fit. Works great.

I cut drain holes with a step bit in my current one with the intention of washing it out periodically. Haven't ever washed it
