along the side rails and can be easily removed (even when full), and
carried to wherever the contents are needed. Each bin will hold up to
60 lb (27 kg) of cargo, and has a drain plug for use as a cooler.Note:

cargo weight in all bins on that side of the pickup box cannot exceed 60
lb (27 kg).

pre-delivery, but if necessary, simply remove the sticker covering the
keyhole, insert ignition key and turn to the extent of travel in each
direction. This key will then be the only key to unlock the bin.
•Once the key has been set, simply turn the key to the right to lock, or
to the left to unlock. When locked, the push-button will not depress
