It's nice to have out on the trails. Yesterday we were out on some really muddy logging trails and it was really convenient to wipe your hands off, seeing as we were out pulling tow straps through the mud all day lol. It's also pretty handy if your working on your truck and get all greasy. Really just makes things a bit easier to keep clean.

If you do that sort of thing a lot I can see where it would come in handy, I can't stand sliding my hand up or down a nasty chain/strap. Actually gives me a good idea for the ole farm truck. bolted right on the dash, thanks!

I like the box you have there, but I have to ask. What is your approx. square footage of usable cargo space now? I'm dealing with trying to find a smaller box for my subs and this looks like it'd be useful.

That depends, I'm assuming you want to know how much space there is without the tool box? I've actually been considering building a slightly smaller box by getting rid of the 45 degree face and having the sub right on the end near the tailgate. But for how much space I have, I'll take measurements later and let you know.

Yes, without the toolbox, haha. Basically, I'm just wondering if the box you built takes up as much, more, or less space than the one I currently have.

Alright, it looks like I've got about 7.5sq-ft of usable cargo space without the tool box haha.

Bought my self a new sub, Kicker CVR12! And I went ahead and built a new enclosure for it. The new one takes up less space in the cargo area so I could fit a bigger tool box haha.




And I finally got my CB Antenna, a 4ft FireStik

I've got the same sub, what do you think of it so far? (I actually have two of 'em)
