These seem nice, no wheels, but still nice.
They're OK. I have a few in various sizes.

I also have a similar bin that I got from Cabela's a few years back that has a nice lid that seals out moisture. I keep some camping gear in there.

Just bought a heavy duty tote style box at Wal mart today in the auto section. What is the best way to keep it from sliding around? Straps is first thought. I'm in a 250 and anchor spots are few.

Honestly mine don't slide around much at all. I have a spray-in liner and my totes are probably 15-20lbs stuffed full. They don't move.

Put some non-slip furniture feet on the bottom of the box.

They have cargo bars at walmart too. It's a bar that you can put across your bed sort of like a divider.

Interesting thread... I just installed my MX4 this past weekend and picked up two storage bins today for the bed of the truck. I went with 2x Plano Sportsman 1919 Trunks, and found them in stock at my local Dick's. I went with these over other bins because they're manageable, sturdy, secure, and have 2 latches on the long sides instead of one on each end. The wheels are nice too when sliding them in and out of the bed.

Haha. That's not even half of my kit. Still trying to get everything organized.

I personally keep on these in the bed with a tie down over it.

I have a set of the swing cases. I'm not real happy with them. They will work good for light stuff but way over priced. They haven't failed yet but I feel its just a matter of time. I would rather see them made out of aluminum.
