Tool Box?
Post by fng on Dec 25, 2006, 12:08pm

I have a question, Specifically what is the intended use of the long, pass through storage area in front of the bed? Was there some special purpose for this, like antenna storage or something?
I think it wold be a great place to keep my Hi-Lift. Thanks, Tracy
