It's like a raping. I cannot believe how much new boxes cost. I've always had a box in the bed. But this last time, I just couldn't justify spending $350+ on a box. So, I didn't.

I searched Craigslist for a few weeks looking for a box, but they were stoopid expensive as well.

I finally went to an Army/Navy supply store and bought an ammo box and painted in flat black to match my spray in liner. It's semi-camoflauged, seals against the weather and it's big enough to hold essential items.

Keep an eye on sears. They run special sales on tool boxes that include truck boxes.
