Around here it seems to be a 3 spoke wheel of trash. Dealers-Users-Fences. Meth head or junkie steals some chit Fence pays him 10 cents of retail Dude visits the dealer for more dope.
I've read in the court news some guys take up two positions on the wheel. Dealer and fence. What exactly the fence does I am not sure but it doesn't get sold anywhere near where it came from at that level. They busted a semi load of stolen stuff half way across Canada from out here.

Why not set up a booby trap that sprays the thugs with pepper spray when the break int your tool box. Or use a job site tool box bolted into the bed of your pickup bed.

Thanks for the info guys, sounds good.
Just ordered one, $1326 grand total and that includes shipping.
I've been meaning to upgrade for several years but never found anything(sturdy) with the right dimensions to fit over my L tank.
The Highway box should be a perfect fit. Might have to scoot the tank back and inch or two but that's not a huge deal.
I know this is a dumb question, but why not park the truck inside a locked shed/garage?

Stop your fuucking whining Sam. Everybody knows drugs are a "victimless" crime. (for those in Rio Linda, the whistle icon is the smart assed one) Clyde
The liberal mind is an endless black hole of stupidity.

I was whining again this afternoon to my dad after I discovered a few more missing items.
He said well if you thought that stuff was so valuable then you should have had a better toolbox.
Kinda pizzed me off as I buy most all my own tools to do work on his farm. It ain't my show.
Deep breathes....
Redneck, my 2 car garage here in town is full of chit. My pickup won't fit, That and the garage doesn't have a floor drain. Plus I'm not sure how much longer we'll live here so I'm hesitant to invest in a building in the backyard,

I hate gull-wing boxes. Too short and weak to put heavy stuff over the side into/out of them, without climbing into the back of the truck. And if I climb up there, I want a full-length door.....

I agree. That same outfit makes a box with one lid. That's what I've got. I won't ever buy another gullwing. Haven't had one since I discovered the full length lids.

Richard, insurance would be a wash.
But I did stop by the pawn shop this afternoon and the owner said the police had some pictures of stuff that might possibly be mine.
Went to the city police station and the person with the pics was over in Williston but they'd have 'em tomorrow.
Don, I'm not tossing rail road ties up on the fricken tool box!
I like in the winter time. Open the lid and all the snow ends up on the other side that you don't open as often.

All this hate on the GullWing is getting me really pissed off.

I've drooled over their website. Some of their one off custom utility beds are fuggin unreal. I would love this. Not that I really need it(we could put it to use) but more than anything it'd be uber great to pull up to the bar and park right out front. Fill it up with ho's on the way home.....

I was wondering why all the hate.

Son, I went through times where I had to use them Harbor Freight tools too, so I feel for you. I was just thinkin' about that the other day as I was usin' a Snap On 5/8" to beat on something with.
