    Yeah, it was. So fortunate to avoid a collision.

    And nope to the extender! That's why I want to get one! Hence the creation of this thread. :D

    Haha oh yeah! I had an extender on my last tuck and would keep stuff like groceries in the place between the tail gate and the extender all the time. And if those crates were bungeed to the extender in that spot, it's my opinion your crates wouldn't go anywhere.

    Very! But still cheaper than a bed extender isn't it? I like some of the cheap ideas on here for dividers or cargo storage.

    IMG_2466.jpg IMG_2468.jpg 4 milk crates without the extender in place. I'm going to get the ratcheting cargo bar from Home Depot this weekend so I can keep the Rtic 65 in the back by the tailgate. It won't fit with the new style OEM/AMP bed extender. This new style is about useless for what I had wanted it to do. My previous pix was two milk crates with the extender and tailgate closed

    I really like my Amp Research bed extender. I use it in the "In" position all the time, except when hauling a dirt bike. It makes Costco trips with cases of beer etc :homer:a pleasure.

    I offered 150$ plus shipping (34.90$) = $184.90 total. Seller indicated that is an open box with content intact (fingers crossed)...
    Still waiting for shipping confirmation.
    A lot of sellers there offering the AMP, just be patient until find a good deal.
