    I put my order in for a 2021 Tundra TRD Pro Lunar Rock. I am now looking at decked truck bed systems. Any ideas/suggestions? Thank you in advance.

    Decked is an approved vendor here. You might check if there is a sale going on now.

    I had a Decked on my last truck and loved it. It is a solid piece of kit. Two things to consider that I learned after installing it:

    1) It is heavy. I think the one I has was over 200lbs (F150 shortbox). That’s a lot of weight even before you fill it.
    2) Loading and unloading stuff from the top can be a pain as the deck is about 11” higher.

    I ended up selling mine after 5-6 months. I have a bad back and loading things into the truck gave me the pains. With the tailgate down, you cannot just drop things onto the tailgate and slide them into the bed. You have to extend your arms out to reach over the tailgate and put them on top of the Decked system. It’s very bad ergonomics. Not Decked’s fault, just the nature of the beast.

    If those two things are not issues for you, go for it. I loved having all my gear in the drawers instead of a truck box.
