Thanks Josh! Great review! For everyone watching/reading to be clear that the ammo cans ARE NOT weatherproof and we really try to make sure people know this. The drawers, however, ARE weatherproof. We have made some improvements over the past year which has improved the ammo cans weatherproof nature, but still not 110%. We want to be completely transparent on this topic so noone is bummed. We also don't claim the drawers to be waterproof like tupperwear. But anything falling from the sky or car wash will not get into the drawers. But if you back into a lake... your drawers will fill with water. That's just the nature of how the drawers slide into the drawer cavity. Thanks again Josh! 5 stars on your channel!

I like this but I just can't sacrifice so much of the bed depth for it.

I've had mine for a year now. Absolutely awesome .

I pretty much live in my truck 5 days a week for work and just found out about this system! This looks great for my line of work. Time to start saving the benjamins

Great work Josh! I picked up a difference between your vid and Decked's vid - The tie down rails screw into the steel ladder frame of the system, not just the plastic surface. Yes, they're limited, but think more like refrigerator and less like a cooler and beach chairs. The tie downs are rated for 500 pounds. Thanks for the vid!

Thanks for a very good pro/con review, real world good review. Rarely do you see an honest review on anything. Nothing is perfect but its nice to see an actual owner review. Thanks for taking the time to do it. I subscribed for you dude.

Great review brother. You nailed many of the simple common sense questions that the average joe truck owner would ask. I'm sure I'm not the only one that appreciates all that you put into making this video. Thank you again for your effort. Thumbs up!!!!

Three years for me now. No leaks, no problems with rollers, latches, nothing. Very pleased with the product.

What a great review! I have a 2020 TRD PRO. Decked system on the way!

Thinking about getting a truck canopy with a decked system as well for my ranger. Thanks for the review! Love your raptor!

Fantastic video, Josh! I just ordered one a week ago and am waiting for it to arrive and saw this video which just further cemented in my mind that I made the right decision.

Just came across this video in a search. I've been weighing options for storage options with a tonneau cover. Good review and you gained a sub.

SUPER helpful. Thank you so much for this video!

Best review of the decked system I’ve seen so far, well done 👍🏻

Nice honest review (and without irritating music). I was going to build a set but think I am going to pull the trigger and get these instead. I have seen several others that don't utilize the space in front and behind the wheel wells which is obviously not efficient.

Great questions and your vids are well done and fun as well as informative. Thanks for the info and putting in the time to build these vids.

Ordered my system last week for my 2020 RAM 1500 Built To Serve, LoneStar.

Great review! Thanks for posting.

Nice review ... I’m strongly considering this product for my truck ...

great review i appreciate the compromising issues that may present themselves/// I have a thule rack for bikes but iguess i can use the decked rails for hauling... thanks again

This would be awesome for my f150 that has a high back fiberglass cap on it. I'm definately checking on this

Haha.. I laughed pretty hard from seeing you jump up and down..

Phenomenal review! Im lusting after this system pretty bad. The only thing that's stopping my purchase is the transferability to my next pick up truck in the next year or so. In other words once you make this investment it's pretty much custom fit for that truck, and would not necessarily transfer to your next vehicle, as opposed to other generic toolboxes which are easily transferred from vehicle to vehicle.

Great review video. Thank you.

Great review. Thanks man!

Best enticing video to buy by far!! Thank you!

Great review Josh, thnx for taking the time. If you see this and feel up to it do a vid running it through a car wash to see how it does on being waterproof. I figure that would be a good rep of how it would be driving through a rain storm. I agree It would be nice if the tie down system was a bit more robust seeing its supposed to be able to hold 2K of weight on it.

Great review. Definitely helped me with my decision.

Honest review, like it 👍

Fantastic review. Thank you

Great review.

So bottom line is, if you could carry it on a flat bed pickup..your good to go with this!! Which is most stuff..wood, lumber, pipes, etc..just lay it, and strap it down. Smaller stuff under 5' you can put directly in the drawers. That just my opinion of course. I have been looking for a system like this to carry my guns to and from the range in. I need to find out the "exact" size of the drawers first however. Also I would like to find a supplier of "large cut it yourself foam blocks" that would fit in there snuggly. Or I can leave them cased and in the drawers, if the drawers are big enough. Thanks for the video bro! Nice work!! 😁👍

I've been on the fence about Decked...your video sold me. Thanks! Also, I noticed you didn't have a pair of bolt cutters...those are the "Master Key" to all that is locked.

Great review, Josh!!

Very good review thanks!

Great video and helpful. Right on!

If you live in western Arizona, they become brittle in the heat. Decked has responded, but the replacement part doesn't fit, because It's not heat warped. Trying to get top part replaced. We'll see. It works great, no issues with drawers but it WILL become brittle

I liked your review. I've had my Decked system in my Tundra for several years as well, and I don't regret the decision to purchase it one bit. I didn't go with the trax system to this point as I use the track/tie down system along the bed rails that is standard in the Toyota - I use it to keep a water jerry can, and a 2200w Honda Generator from moving around most of the time. I have two of the DBox's, but I purchased the smaller Crossbox, and I actually prefer the smaller box as I can compartmentalize like equipment (one is fly fishing specific) and it is lighter to move around. If I recall correctly at the beginning of the instructions it has you drill holes in the "dimples" at the bottom of the ammo box for drainage - so they were not meant to be waterproof. I have a Leer shell and also use the system as a sleep platform. With the 6.5' bed, I can actually have one of the "lower" cots with a sleeping pad already set up for no hassle camps, and I can store stuff between the cot and the top of the Decked system. The biggest plus to this system is "out of sight, out of mind" - and the black blends in with the spray in bed liner so you don't really "see what you are seeing..."

@@andresenriquezjr5558 The Decked system uses the four corner tie downs as its anchoring points, but I still have the sliding "anchor" points in the tracks which run along the sides of the truck bed (or can be moved to the front track). I've used them to anchor a variety of things, and have never had a problem - even over long periods driving over rough/off-road terrain. I guess if I really needed to utilize the corner tie downs the Decked system can be easily removed in about 15-20 minutes then re-installed. Decked has the tie down system that is supposed to screw down into the platform and apparently serves as a pretty good anchoring system, but I have not seen the need to get them yet.

I’ll be getting that for my Raptor... I wish they make one with a slide out top...

Sold... Thanks man.

I might consider getting this, but only if they can do customizations - such as a Shorter length version for Trucks that want to keep their Truck Boxes - Also allow the option for 1 large drawer instead of 2 separate drawers. It would be far more accommodating this way for all kinds of applications and purposes... Just a friendly suggestion.

I bought an air lift first. Once I install that, I'm ordering decked system with cargo slide. It'll work well with my system one ladder rack system. Contractor trying to get rid of his trailer

I wish Decked built a system for trucks with a gooseneck system.

The company instructional video clearly state the 4 corner "ammo cases" are not waterproof, only the drawers are.

If something inside the drawers move a bit where they prevent the drawer from coming out, like my kitchen drawers for metal spatulas, how can it be remedied? I totally agree about the tie-downs needing to be much more heavy duty. Great video BTW. Thanks.

This is a great idea. If the underside of the deck (ceiling of the drawers) were smooth this wouldn't happen. But, yes, if you have unstable items in the drawers, they will inevitably shift and catch. I notice this most with fishing poles. I've broken the tips off a couple rods by collapsing them and tossing them in a drawer.

I have the need!!! And want!! Awesome vid man. Not sure if you are getting paid by them but you should.

What’s great is if you are brand buyer you can pull this out and place in your next truck. You can pull this out and store in the garage in no time if you need to put your motorcycles in. Game on.

Great review Josh. I have been contemplating purchasing this for my truck and your video has pushed me over the edge. Personally, I would use the drawer system way more than the full capacity/volume of the truck bed when empty. As you mentioned, you get around 10" or so of depth with the Decked system installed. Seems like a solid unit and watching you jump up and down rigorously not only made me laugh but shows how tough the unit is two years after install. Great video and thanks for sharing!

Hi Josh Great job on the explanation of each feature. Really enjoyed your video. Wanted to ask I have 2022 Toyota Tundra with a Hard Tri Fold cover. Can this still be install with the DECKED drawer system?

Awesome video😂😎

I just worry about side of the road sales and hauling stuff that’s deeper than the bed sides. I want to build some drawers but still test haul some furniture to see how it lays on the now raised Toyota truck bed

or ammo. Don't keep any ammo in the ammo box. I almost bought one of these, glad I didn't. Good review! I can see big issues in a down pour, or snow. This happens all the time in my climate. Thanks for taking the time.

I added small rubber tubing around the ammo boxes with about 1/4" gap to prevent vacuum lock and it'll survive standing water. Cost about $4. Wish it were 1/2 in wider so I could add frontrunner worlfpack storage box inside of them. The toolboxes are nice, however. On a side note... the Decked system is NOT resistant to find dust/sand as when Overlanding. The toolboxes are, of course.

nice raptor

Also...would placing a fibreglass topper onto the bed create any issues? Was thinking that would be the perfect camping setup.

Those ammo box lids should be on hinges, I could see those getting lost or kids taking them and throwing them somewhere.

I like the looks of this system. Couple quick Qs: Are the drawers big enough for golf clubs? What about the temperature inside the drawer when the truck is left outside in the sun? I'm betting it gets pretty warm inside with that "black box!"

I'd hope that you can get them without the ammo pocket parts would make more use of the rest of it

I installed one in my 2016 Ram 1500 3 years. Great product and yes water tight. The most I loaded on the unit 1000 LBs no problem. Rifles, tow straps, compressor. A Cases were not dry. Key note do not over tighten the turn buckles/tie down hooks!

Can you fit a children's stoller into the drawer system? I know the dimensions are a bit small but I was curious about one of those umbrella strollers

I’ve recently purchased and installed a Decked storage system after watching many reviews. None of them mentioned any problems with the ammo box lids, but there seems to be a design flaw with them. Mine only have tabs on two of the four sides and blow off when going thru the car wash. Anybody else had this problem?

Ok decked gen 2 make the other compartments waterproof and I'll buy 2 and tracks more HD

The truck cap does it come for the RAM Rebel 2021? It doesn’t have a RAM Box. It has a Crew cab.

Can you still reach the bed light switch? I have a topper and use it for camping and would like to be able to turn the lights on and off from inside the topper.

What would be the best way to prevent rust from forming, when drilling into a metal bed? Would coating the holes in heavy grease do the trick?

What is not noted: the drawers do not come out the full way and leave lots of space inaccessible. Feels like you get a 40” drawer instead of 72”.

I finally took my Decked box out because of this. It’s beyond frustrating trying to get something out from the rest of the drawer that won’t slide out.

I'm still on the fence. I often haul ice chests and wakeboards in the bed of my truck. I can't figure out how to lock them up with this system without putting a cap on (which I hate).

What kind of ramps do you using for loading the quad on top of the decked system?

I am getting one and putting a topper on top. throw in a air mattress and a sleeping bag and im home sweet home

I'm sold. Been looking for a while. And made in the US.

Does it take glock mags?... just kidding, great review. Thinking about getting one of these for 6.5" bed. Thanks for the information.

So I watched your video - very very good review. I hope you are still around after 3 years for this question / observation. Has the lose of the length of about 33% of your bed impacted you? I just got my system installed, and while I understand why the drawers can only come out about 2/3 of the way, I did not realize this when I got the system. So as I am organizing the drawers I am trying to figure out how to use the 1/3 that does not come out and really is not easily accessible. Am I missing something or did you experience the same thing?

Do the ammo cases have drains in the bottom to drain any water that does get in or do you have to wipe them out?

Question, If you need to tie down your load “ ATV “ or other heavy stuff, how do you use your factory bed tie downs when the decked and camo area is covering your access? Im not seeing how to use my factory tie downs in my bed once the Decked is installed. I can order and use the tie down rails from Decked, but would like to use my tie downs.

Can you still install a shell over that system to keep everything dry & add extra storage on top? I think you can. Nice system of storage. Very versatile.
