I have a UWS made one for each of my trucks http://www.uwsta.com/



For my black Tacoma I got a black powder coated box, had the inside of it Line-X'd.

finding a tool box that will fit under the cover will be a little difficult. i had a protec chest and wanted to put a tonneau cover over the top but the lid would hit the covers rails when you tried to open it. so i ended up removing the tool box and i just use the cover now.



ive seen a couple guys with crappy plastic boxes under theirs but i didnt like that.

I picked one up from Tractor Supply Co that is made by Dee Zee. Its pretty short though(Chest type) and fits between my tire wells since anything wider would hit the cover rails.

I reallly like the low profile box made by Tuffy Security but its spendy at $600 for the size that it is.

Well I took back the one I got since it really just didnt fit.

Im looking at the low profile front box by Tuffy. does anybody make one for less that $600?

I've wanted to add a box since 2001 but then you can fit NADA in the bed.
Why they didn't go with a 6' bed is a daily question for me.
Our truck came with a cover and I switched to a cap.
I use a tool tote and a rubberized duffel bag
