Doesn’t Sergio know he needs to clear this stuff with Baraq and Ron Bloom before releasing it to market?

I can buy a gun rack for my Ford.

[equalitybeforethelaw]

Doesn’t seem to be a smart place to keep a rifle. How in the hell are you gonna be able to shoot traffic signs with the damn thing in the rear? Silly engineers.

I guess it’d be useful, but a total of $2000+ for what amounts to just a couple of toolboxes impinging into the truck bed? Doesn’t strike me as good value.

Only an anti-American fool would by a government built truck.

Jeep used to have a pretty good gun mount...

[Pan_Yan]

Nice. Added waterproof storage on the sides at the cost of bed space. Might as well get an SUV. At least then you’ll have an extra seat.

[Grampa Dave]

This little/lockable trunk apparently costs $2000 as an extra.

This considerably larger/lockable trunk is standard on the Honda Ridgelines.

It doesn't look strong enough. A good service bed has STRONG locks, heavy gage steel and is alarmed. That's cause if you have a service bay, you probably own 30-50k worth of quality tools.

I don't want something that can be easily pried open, or cut open with truck mounted air tools. But, a good service bed is not very pretty.

Hell, for no extra cost, my 2010 Hyundai Santa Fe has enough storage under the rear cargo area to carry a Mossberg 500 (pistol grip, 18.5" barrel), a 28" barrel and original stock for same, a Ruger 10/22 with scope in soft case, a Winchester model 94 (carbine in gun sock), an SKS with TAPCO stock (removed the adjustable stock part of it), several boxes of ammo, targets, and a Springfield XD 40 subcompact in original box. Granted, it was tight, but it all fit and the lid closed.

Unfortunately, I recently lost all these weapons in a freak boating accident...

I've never liked the idea of leaving guns in unattended vehicles. Breaking into and stealing my car is one thing. Getting my gun at the same time would be more than I could bear.
Once criminals recognize what these gun compartments contain, they'll just increasingly target these vehicles.

This thread has just added to the FreeRepublic "bang list" (firearms interest list) by adding the keyword "banglist".

Any time a firearms-related thread is created on FreeRepublic, please be sure to add the "banglist" keyword to it so that interested FReepers don't miss it. Just a suggestion.

Friday fun thread.

[Still Thinking]

Hmmmm, hold two rifles or shotguns in a lockable, watertight compartment. Geniuses!! All this time all we needed to take our guns in the truck was a lockable, watertight compartment...oh, wait...

[wardaddy]

I've owned all the big trucks for 35 years

No question Dodge Cummins is the best diesel power

torque and acceleration and gas mileage

my 2007 Dodge Mega Cab 2500 got 21 mpg overall

and to doubters I can prove it...i photoed the onboard computer for Thomases

by contrast my 2009 Ford 250 diesel got around 12 mpg and burned thru a 4000 dollar fuel filter (burn off epa shite) in only 40,000 miles and was slow as crap without a chip upgrade

Ford and GMC have more styling no doubt...piped leather and all that

but give me a Dodge Cummins anyday

don't need no stinkin chip btw

[lookout88]

Obama gay motors going butch

[ATOMIC_PUNK]

I like the idea of a concealed gun box like a waterfroof underbed box custom built to the frame of the vehicle you may have to get under the truck to get into it but its a totaly defensive move to have a hidden box anyway ...Be Prepared at all times

[houeto]

When I was a lot younger, Dodge came out with a promotion for their Texas version pick-up truck. It came with a back window gun rack and a brand new Winchester lever-action 30-30.
