The slots to put lumber to divide, make two tiers of storage, attach accessories, put tie down hooks, and a few things I am forgetting. 

Kind of amazed how little some know about the trucks they buy.

 

That remark was not aimed at you.

I used a 2x12 for mine, most use a 2x4.

Recently, I used mine in the front of the bed to keep the toolbox that I was picking up from Lowe's from bumping the bedrail and the cab.  For the most part, I keep it in the back set for keeping things near the tailgate, like groceries, etc.

I was annoyed at how carefully the corners had to be rounded to get the board to sit all the way down on the bed floor. Why couldn't one cut with the circular saw on the job site accomplish it?

Shouldn't you have a speed square at a job site? Makes 45s look like they were done by Norm Abrams himself.

45? Like with a protractor? I was/am being facetious, I carefully cut beautiful corners with a precise paint can radius. Besides, that would've been 3 cuts, 1 to length then the two angle cuts.

I used my late father's square and my cordless circular saw to cut two 45º angles at 2.5 inches off the corners, on one of the long edges.

 

A friend of mine left his 2x4 alone, and lets it sit off the bottom of his truck bed.
