You've got a truck, you need a tool box, ... but which one?
OK, not everyone with a truck needs a truck tool box. You know who they are, they get a truck because it's cool but if they get a flat tire, they're lost. They don't USE their truck, they just want to be seen driving one. If you fit that category, there isn't much here that you'll find interesting. On the other hand...
Let's see if you need a truck tool box. Here's a checklist:
You drive a full size, mid size or mini pickup, SUV or RV, flat bed, full size van or semi tractor
You have a lot of tools, you know how to use them, you feel lost without them and you need a place to keep them secure
When something breaks or needs to be built, everyone looks at you
You spend a lot of time working and relaxing outdoors and you load your truck with a lot of gear for camping or hunting
If two or more apply to you, this is your site. We'll wade through the many tool boxes and narrow the choices down until we find the right one for you. Ready? Great, ... grab some coffee, roll up your sleeves, let's get started.
What are you going to put into your tool box?
Yes, they're called truck TOOL boxes, but you can carry a lot of things besides tools and most people do. Pickup trucks don't always have enough room in the cab for things like camping and hunting gear, and some things you want to keep out of the cab under any circumstances, like paint, chemicals and gasoline. If you have long handled tools you'll need a different box than if you just carry hand and power tools. Do you work directly out of the tool box or do you take a smaller box out to the job site and store that in your truck box? All of these things will affect your choices.
What other factors affect tool box choice?
How secure do you need the box to be? Does it have to withstand bolt cutters and pry bars or simply keep things out of sight? What kind of weather do you typically see? Will you be lifting the lid a lot or once a day or even less and does it have to stay up on its own or is a simple hinge ok? Will the box be permanently mounted or do you want to remove it occasionally or frequently? Is access from the side necessary or will you get in the truck bed first? Starting to get complicated isn't it? No problem, no matter what you need, one of our tool boxes should do the trick..
