I've had the SwingOut since 2016 and it still looks like new. Very handy, lockable and easily removable.

Have another ready to put on my 2020 3500 when it gets here. May put one on each side.

Seems like a lot of these designs could be made from plywood, stained and sealed with a few coats of varnish. Should last years if made right

agreed, there are lots of ways to come up with something. I am not handy enough to make it look as well polished as the Chevy example though.

the "DECKED" system is really nice too, and you can make a DIY version too but it doesn't look as finished as the Decked system.

So I read the post title and my mind immediately went to storage on top of the spare tire under the bed.[emoji1787][emoji1787][emoji1787]Other than the cartel, I couldn't think of a good reason but to each their own! Lol. Dont judge me.

I have sought something like this for years! My 2011 was available from the factory with RAMBOXES (I think) but mine doesn't have them. Finding a 6-4 box with RAMBOXES is virtually impossible in the used market. Entire system was listed under p/n 82209778, and has been superceded in the latest catalogs by 82215517 for the 5-7 bed and by 82215518 for the 6-4 bed. Both look a lot like the "Decked" system we've all seen already, and they're priced around 12 to $1400. Very attractive to my sense of "looks" but I don't want to give up any vertical in my bed. I also want to preserve the 48" minimum between the wheelwells. So, for me, still no solution, but if anybody finds a real nice 6-4 RAMBOX bed in bright red...........

I actually really like my setup. Not what the PO started with, but it’s the closest thing I’ve found that didn’t require me to drill holes in the bed!

TruXedo Deuce Hybrid Truck Bed Tonneau Cover | 745901 | https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0026Y9CMU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_7rGHEbDJJXGW2

TruXedo TL - TonneauMate | 1117416 Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001VF2UWO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_6sGHEb3R2TDGW

Lockable Toolbox, easy access, and great customer service!

Great setup but pricey when added all up.

oh yeah--- I'm a cheap SOB so $1000 solutions aren't what I'm after. The swing out box is nice, but not as long as I was looking for.

The only reason I bought it was a December sale... I’m with you guys. Got a great deal on the box from a local shop here.

That's definitely a set up that I'm considering at some point. You've had it for over a year now? Everything holding up fine?

I’ve Truly enjoyed it. The toolbox has taken a beating, and still looks amazing, and is 100% waterproof.

The cover has a lifetime warranty on all parts. I do get some leakage at the rear corners, but outside of that, It’s been great. That’s why I recommend it over and over.
