Bed storage cubby box fits a small fire extinguisher

[Mike1597]

FYI the truck bed storage box makes a good place to store a small fire extinguisher. I purchased a small UL rated 5-B:C extinguisher from Amazon. It fits great in the box with lots of room to spare.

That's where I keep mine too. I have one size up and it fits. Highly recommend folks keep one on hand.

That's another great spot for one. They also fit great in the door bottle holders.

I’ve had my truck since 2021 . I honestly forgot about that cubby until this post. Great idea!

Weird question. I live in Texas where the heat is ridiculous during the late spring/summer/mid fall. Could the high heat impact the pressure of the fire extinguisher?

Good from -40 to 120

Never expose to temperatures above 150!

Thank you! Yikes Texas hasn’t gotten close to 150 but I do wonder what the temp within the truck will be like when it hits 100° again.

120 degrees rules out keeping one in my Mav during the summer

That is one of several reasons why I decided to mount mine in the truck bed cubby box. It won't get nearly as hot as inside the truck.

I’ve a lariat and only have one cubby on passenger side and it’s not deep like one in the pics.

I'm not sure which one it is exactly and I'm on vacation right now. But it's this size.

Pull the plastic. It's a false floor.

I have an XL it came with no storage box. I bought two boxes and installed them one on each side. They are the same part number; my understanding is these boxes are all the same size. There is a plastic shelf (that looks like the bottom) slide it out and it is deep!
