    yeah the gray was the last one we did today and I really like it. We will offer a bunch of colors for sure, thanks for the feedback.

    The drawer is about 150lbs, which most of that are the two pairs of sliders, they are 500lb rated.

    Are you planned on doing one size? I haven't read much into your system beyond watching your youtube video. Is this a one size fits all sort of deal? Or would you have different options for someone like me with a more narrow vehicle? No way I could fit your current drawer system in the back of my 4Runner, with the fridge next to it.

    So we have a 5 foot bed option, 6 foot bed option, and then our second product will be for SUVs to fit in the back cargo area of like a 4runner. The difference with this is that it can be like a Chuck box going in and out of your vehicle and not being a permanent installation like most systems. It would give you room for the fridge as well as a whole kitchen set up and storage

    We created a new floating drawer design that hides the main bottom sliders, changes the water storage solution, and is powered off of whatever power tool batteries you own. If you’ve got Dewalt, Maikita, Milwaukee or whatever you can plug them in to power the drawer on your trips. The aluminum comes today and the aluminum composite panels are being cut by a sign shop in Modesto next week. Once we nail this version and get it ready for Overland Expo West, then will start putting out drawings for SUVs

    Dude, this is so cool that this is popping off for you man. You were born for this type of thing. I remember sitting on 3N21 last year having a conversation about that exact subject. That you should be at these expos and shows selling merch... Pretty cool that it's going to be YOUR merch.

    Funny thing is... This guy was all about talking about how needs his truck to be versatile so he can do "man things" with it.

    All the while @Papadave418 probably does more shit, in 6 months, with his truck than that dip shit tool bag will do with his truck in his entire life.

    I like the grey, and like a blue, but maybe a bit lighter than shown.

    A brushed aluminum would be cool, and I would prefer color wise, but don’t think I would pay extra for that. Also wonder if the plastic would actually be better because it would not dent the same or would give a little. Also think that it might have less rattle from equipment.

    I think that the Lost Coast and Mojave Road would be great trips. I’ve spent a lot of time in the Mojave, and driven across that road at several locations but never had a 4WD to travel the road.
    You headed there with Overland Bound it TW people?
