So last week I was on a long drive through heavy snow. Stopped to let the dog out and noticed that my tailgate and lights were covered in snow (I have already cleaned off the tail lights in this photo).
I was shocked to see how much snow had been sucked inside my box ( I have a vinyl box cover installed that is velcro sealed on the sides and fits tight to the tailgate with rubber weather stripping). The snow was coming up through the small gap between the bottom of the tailgate and the edge of the truck bed. Got all of my stuff covered in snow. Lucky I found it when I was still in an area below freezing as I was able to brush the snow off my stuff but if I had gotten to my destination where it was above freezing then all the snow would have melted and soaked my stuff.
