Truck Vault

Looking at a Truck Vault for my F-150, just curious if anyone has any real world experience with them. Not cheap; so other than YouTube videos I’m hoping to find someone who is actually using one. Thanks in advance.

Got 2, one for my PU, and a second for an SUV. Love them. I got the offset magnum for the PU; one drawer is wider than the other, and both are tall enough to place scoped rifles upright. In a pickup length I can keep all of my varmint / predator hunting gear available and locked up. I also have a locking tailgate for additional security. I got the Allweather coating ( but I have a tonneau cover too ). You really can park a small ATV on top of it.
Downside - hauling regular PU stuff is more problematic. You probably won't be hauling much mulch or gravel in your truck bed. . But, I love mine. Well worth the money.

If you are considering options, Decked is not bad. Maybe not as sturdy, and limited options on depth of drawer, but much less costly. Mine just works, and has room for everything I need to carry. Basically water ‘tight’ although humidity/light dust can get in.

Looks exactly like what you have pictured. Not waterproof so you'll need a topper or tonneau cover. I also have an ARE topper. Be aware that you will lose about 6"-8" of space between the top of the Truck Vault and the topper shell. With tinted windows in the topper you can't see that there's anything in the bed with the tailgate closed. I have the Simplex locks, so you can use combination or key for quick unlocking/locking. I am also looking to get a Truck Slide to mount on top of the Truck Vault to make loading even easier. Complete peace of mind when travelling with high value items.

I was going to go with offset magnum, but reverted back to the standard; I wasn't sure if I really needed the extra width of the larger draw and liked the look of the standard better. Are you glad you chose the offset and would you choose that again?

Yep - I'm very happy with the offset drawers & magnum heights - wouldn't change anything. I have considered getting a topper ( like Chief_Rick ) but haven't decided yet. So, for right now, still the tonneau cover.
