    weather guard are good boxes, the only problem that i have seen with them is the shocks will wear out after use, but they are good and strong

    Thats what I have in the crewcab. It is going on 10 years old now and we bought it brand new. I think it is a prety damn high quality box. It is deffinately showing its age, but I am prety hard on most of my **** so I'd say its held up great. The shocks to wear out but that just means you have to burn an extra calorie to lift the lid yourself. Wha... The buttons to open the top are a ***** to push in, in fact I cannot open the box at all when I am in the bed of the truck because I cant get enough leverage to push the button all the way down. I have an aluminum one and the annodizing started to peel away and the metal corode about 2 or 3 years ago, but I'm from the coast so you might not have that problem.

    not to be a dick, but annodizing doesn't peel. It was probably a clear coat.

    yea, the website says its clear coated. i think it'll last me awhile, i usually take good care of my stuff. those small gas shocks always wear out sometime, no matter what they are on.

    wetherguard seems to have a better latch setup to me. they might be a litle thicker aluminum, but the latches are worth it. weatherguard, rki, and knapp (parent co. to weatherguard i think) are the way to go.

    roeson and koenig or how ever you spell it are what i like. my dad has had then on his trucks for years, and the latest one, is ten or so years old, and still works fine, but as stated it isnt as shiny any more.
    He who dies with the most **** wins, after seeing your collection you are in the lead no doubt!

    rki = rawson koenig. As an added bonus for most of us, as far as I can tell, it is a Texan company.
