Chrysler's Ram truck division is taking direct aim at hunters with a unique feature on its new line of Outdoorsman pickup trucks - a gun closet. Called the The Mopar RamBox Holster, its a rack that can hold two rifles or shotguns inside one of the lockable, watertight compartments located on either side of the pickup bed. A $205 option - on top of the $1895 price of the RamBox feature itself - the rack can be rotated to hold six fishing poles for those who prefer quieter trips into the great outdoors. The Outdoorsman starts at $28,350 and includes standard features like scratch-resistant bumpers, puncture-resistant tires, and a towing package. Buyers can order the trimline on most Ram models, including heavy duty and long wheelbase versions.

How do you open it in the dark?
In my ‘77 Ford Supercab, that wasn’t a problem.
Well I was not talking about one of them new fangled fancy type pickups
Mine has a 3 digit combination lock. I keep it set to a certain combination then roll the tumblers by touch. I’ve practiced and can have my pistol in hand in just under 1.5 second from the time I open the console lid.
You can get them with a key lock, but I didn’t think that would be wise since the best place for the key would be on the keyring which would be locked into the ignition.
I have the digital key pad and set a combination pattern that I can remember without looking.
Sounds like you are an aware person and did the same thing I did, plan ahead to make sure you can get your weapon quickly.
Well, in the 49 International, and the 56 Jeepster, the 2-60 air conditioner requires you to not wear your hat, due to the heat.
