Who can build me one of these

I tell you what I really want is an OEM side access toolbox. Basically, use the wasted space below the bed, in front of the wheel on each side, to make a small dry box.

Ford and Chevy both did that over 40 years ago.

2 questions. How have I not seen that before? And more importantly, why did they stop?

I've seen a couple homebrew versions on older (but not that old) pickups, one very well done, and one pretty crude. I'm half tempted to do it (very well done, of course) on whatever truck I end up with next.

Wonder why they don't do it anymore?

you can find the side access panel in some Titans and tundras now.

I'm gonna have to give this some thought. Don't know how long my truck will last with over 200XXXX miles, but it sure would come in handy.
