I would pitch them and never worry about them again. Otherwise, you will end up with a garage full of almost new crap that you will never use again, like my Dad had when he passed away. 70+ years worth of stuff that I had to go through.

Freely getting rid of things is something I learned from my x-wife. She would get something new that she wanted and immediately get rid of the old item. She was masterful at that.
Hold on just a minute….come to think of it, I was her 3rd husband and she has a new one now.
Hmmm...

When mine first moved in she got a half-height dumpster. Now, we're divorced but

I recently purchased two locked cubby storage bins with that locked front cover… what do I do with the stock covers? I’d hate to throw them out

Are you talking about those small storage areas in the bed by the tailgate?

I didn't mind her getting stuff and pitching the (sort of) old but she used my credit cards. $150 for a pair jeans that would last a year?!

They don't seem to be very sturdy. Someone will break a tab off of one or crack one and come here looking to buy.

Yeah they're talking about the bed storage partitions

Ohhhh. Thanks for the clarification. As we all know there’s also a “cubby” next to the infotainment screen on the older models.

I would keep at least one because there are times when I needed a piece of black plastic of the same type that comprises these covers.
