Let's see your bed management system

I have a Roll N Lock Cargo Manager, it was included free as a promotional with my Roll N Lock Tonneau cover. It is a movable bed divider that can be positioned every 3 inch along the length of the truck bed. Works great!

Yep, I use a 2x6 also. I sprayed mine with bed liner coating and also made moveable pieces that prevent items from sliding side by side.

Just curious which spray you used. That looks relatively smooth which I'm looking for. I'm assuming most of that cans spray that smooth vs rough roll-on?

I used Herculiner in a spray can. It’s a tad more expensive but it goes on thicker & doesn’t run as easy as the Rustoleum I’ve used before.

Couple 2 x 6’s have always worked for me! The grooves in the bed and tailgate hold things nicely in place when driving. That and some good toolboxes that lock together works perfectly. Oh and the multi pro tailgate is absolutely amazing. Makes the whole bed so much more accessible!

OMG, I didn't know we were allowed to put tools in a truck any more??

Been in construction over 40 years here.

Which tonneau do you have/do you like it?

Haha that’s what trucks are for isn’t it?! nicest work truck I’ve ever had that’s for sure!

the tonneau cover is the gm branded one by REV. It’s very nice! Lots of different configurations that it folds into including right up and out of the way for bigger items in the bed. It’s not totally waterproof but good enough for me. And very secure to keep tools secure.

Thanks for the idea!!... finally got around to making mine... here’s a pic of it installed. I have the little divider piece but didn’t take a pic of that.

Logo is a nice touch. How did you manage to do that? Very cool!

Thanks! I work for a large format printing company and I snuck it on with a job and had it CNC’d and then pinned it to the 2 x 6 before coating... shhhhhh

Looks great! I like the added detail.

I purchased the GM net for the front area of my box. What I like about that is when I’m placing longer items in the box, like lumber or ladders and such, the net is flexible enough to just stretch forward against the box. It also contains a pocket that I store my tie down straps & jumper cables in. With the 2x6 up front, I was always having to crawl up in the box to remove it for longer items, so I leave it in the rear slots where it’s easily removed if the need arises.

The net up front makes good use of the 2500 side steps & my Extang Encore tonneau cover. I can flip the cover back and pack items up front if need be.

I know it’s not bed management, but since we’re on the subject of storage, I placed an extra battery box I had laying around in the spare battery location under the hood. Now I can place small tools or any items that can take the heat, up under the hood.
