Ask and thy shalt receive. So from what I can gather just start throwing stuff in 'tii the lid won't shut?

I looked around the net for some plastic containers of some kind and didn't have much luck. I meant to stop by Wal-mart on my way home but didn't get a chance to.

I may make some dividers for larger stuff like flash lights and things I won't need regularly out of flat strap (steel) and have our local Line-X guy spray it and use plastic trays that will set on top of the flat strap for smaller items.

If anyone has any ideas I'm still definately open to them.

I put my Dunkin Donuts 'free coffee" cars in there.

I organize mine every time I wash my truck, which is very often and its still always a mess. You know its bad when you find junk in there that isn't even yours. How much does a Ford Tissue box go for nowadays? $50

Yeah probably about $50.

Whatever happened to old fashioned hankies. You could just hang your new found snot-rag over the rearview mirror when not in use. How is that for innovation?

If they really want to claim "Better Ideas from Ford" they need to hire me in their R & D department.

tissue box

hey someone may have given answer already but I did not see it. The tissue box the correct size is also at wal-mart. They keep them up front by checkout. In the same area as the candy bars and such. Hope this helps.

Nice, I haven't had the truck for very long and had wondered if you could replace that seat with the console. Where did you find the console and how much did it run you? I think a console would work much better for me as I don't ever see myself hauling six people around in my truck.

The one thing that annoys me is the CD slot under the arm rest doesn't hold the CD's very well unless you have it jammed full as many CD's as possible so they are constantly falling out.....stupid truck time to trade it in.lol.

Well the console is the perfect size for my school books that I want hidden from sight. I don't even know whats under the books but I suspect that it may be possible to put my laptop in there too.

Sorry for the asinine questions but this has made me lose sleep in the past few days (I just got my truck).
It's not for tissues. That holds 4 or 5 CD jewel cases.
