I hope mine looks just as good - if I ever treat it to a wash

I've heard back from Perragon and Pace Edwards, neither of which have a design for The RamBox or could give me an ETA of when they will have one. Probably holding off to find out if it's going to be a single-year design!

I think I'll probably get the Access Vanish, as it at least covers the bed up. I would much prefer to have a locking hardcover, but unless Dodge themselves make one (which they should), we're SOL.

Isn't this a locking hard cover for the RamBox?

It does say it includes the Ram Box bed, but then again it also says it's only for 2500 - 3500 models, so who knows...

FYI. If you get the Access Vanish, you will definitely want to get this: http://www.extrudedsolutions.com/Front-Rail-Seal.htm. I bought mine from Cargo Gear.

I just installed mine and it really seals up the gap in the front. I haven't been able to test it out in rain yet, but it seems like everything should stay dry with the use of this seal.

Well that certainly looks to be it! Waiting to hear back from my delear to confirm.

As for BakFlip:


"Due to the design of the side rails on that truck, we cannot mount a cover and still give you options to open the RamBox. As a result, there are no plans to make a cover to fit that truck and not sure who if any hard covers are (or can) be made for that truck. Best of luck,"

Just ordered fiberglass lid from Kris over at gaylordcustoms.
TL series with tiny speedstur wing. Sweet.
Wanted that extra edge. At least a 50hp gain in looks. =-)

There's also the extang solid-fold. They list one for the Rambox as well. Might be able to get a better price on the extang

Very interesting. I was in at our local Van & Truck World today and they hadn't heard of anybody having something for the RamBox - yet they had several Extang models on display.

Dodge dealer said their cover is $1100 (Canadian$) list, he'll set me up for a little less. I'll double-check on the extang first though
