Bed Storage & Cargo Control

I know that we need more space to accomodate some of our supplies and cargo like materials for hunting, emergency on the road equipments and the like. The idea is we need an 10 foot bed to carry all this stuff. So for you guys what are the best bed storage & cargo control option that you can have on your truck?

For pickup bed storage, "Highway Products" boxes I found to be the best. A long time RV'er and friend recommended them to me. He had the large bed-box, and said "one could easily put four bags of golf clubs in there"! lol

After considerable looking, I also bought the bedrail level storage box. Yes, it is fairly expensive, but it is extremely well made, and has a very good locking mechanism. I only carried one bag of golf clubs in it, but I also put some of our folding chairs in it as well., and a "lot" of other various stuff.

Depending upon how much additional storage you need, Highway Products also has a tailgate storage box. Below is a website for your review. Their boxes are truck brand specific, for fit reasons.

I bought a used 2x2x5 Knaack Job Box, commonly used for storing tools on construction sites. I had it painted to match the truck and will bolt it to the frame...so far it holds all of my tools but the compressor.
