    New cab window protector

    Well, I finally broke down and bought a cab (window) protector. Too many close calls with tossing stuff in the back, not to mention shifting loads. Ive been looking around for one for a while and they can be pricey! I landed this for 274.00 with free shipping and the proper brackets for my F250. It is made by Pro Guard and seems to have some pretty good reviews. Ill keep you guys posted after the install

    looks like the cage on a bobcat! I have a toolbox behind my cab, and mostly use the bed for tools and dollys etc. I haul stuff in it too, like firewood and some scrap, but that toolbox keeps it well away from the cab

    Lol! Yep, knowing my luck it is. Its for the third brake light. I just noticed that every picture I take, my 3 year old manages to get some part of his body in it.

    I have a backflip folding bed cover it is great, when it is down it is aluminum and can't be cut when the tailgate is locked the bed is secure like tonight I have stuff locked in my bed for a drop off early tomorrow morning. When you need to it folds up giving 100% of the bed to use and it folds up to the back window giving you protection. It was $600 not $200 though...
