I bought mine at Tractor Supply so long ago (bought it for a new 1999 F350) that I can't recall the brand. And I repainted it, so there's no logo to be found. Because my trucks have all been shortbeds I needed a box that would rise no higher than the bedrails. This one has served that purpose very well and is in its fourth truck. When I got the superglide they weren't sure the box would allow clearance for the rotation of the hitch head. After exhaustive measurements said it would work, they marked the truck bed, set the hitch in place, set the box in place, then tried it before drilling any holes. The handle clears by a bit more than an inch. And that's enough.

Sailer, I have to disagree with your statement that a box in the truck is no longer needed. Mebbeso for weekenders and vacationers but not for us fulltimers. Aint no way all that "stuff" in that box is going to fit in the Montana. No way, no how.
