Hey everyone, new here and have probably a stupid question, if you get the Ram box, is there a cover for the bed, or is it just left open? I will am looking at the '09,s and so far am loving it, I have till February before my lease is up so I gots time.

not an educated answer but the bed sizes look the same but I doubt you can securely mount a bedliner.

lol more with your bed cover racism, gives it a cleaner look, less air in the bed, so your groceries, tools flatscreen tv, guns etc. wont get dirty or wet in rain or mud and you can take most of them off easliy on the days you carry a tall load.

that's what the RAM box is for bud and the spot under the back seat hahah

not to mention it might actually hurt fuel mileage as this truck was wind tunnel tested without one.

Everybody is a comedian lol, seriously though, considering the fact that you want to protect your bed from the elements how would you with the Rambox, I like the design and all but what bed covers will be available? and I don't see how it could effect gas mileage in a negative way.

If you want to carry your tool box in the bed and have a cover to protect it, what could be wrong with that. The Avalanch ( I know bad word) has a perfect setup, both bed cover and storage on the side.

Besides I think it gives a sleek look to the truck but that is my opinion. Has anyone seen anything for it?
