Chrysler's Gun-Toting Pickup Truck

I had a mod tell me the other day that the person was "saying it in jest"

That's funny, I've gotten suspended a few times when I was obviously saying something in jest.

I wonder if all the bouncing of the truck would mess up the scopes?

i'd bet on it - it's right over a wheel. i'd never put my scoped rifles in there.

I'm bettin such a compartment would be highly attractive to thieves.

Even if they couldn't get it open.. the damage would be an expensive repair.

exactly - it's a sign to thieves saying "break into me!"

What's stopping anyone from driving through neighborhoods seeing whats in peoples pickup beds. The beds are wide open to the public...At least the gun closets can be concealed.

Those compartments have long been available on other models of trucks. Billy and 'nem have always had tool boxes and truck caps and that sort of thing on their pickups. The only real difference with this one is it's directly marketed to "sportsmen" and thieves who know it's specifically a gun box could go for it's contents.

I thought about that but I believe, the opportunity to steal a firearm is more powerful than the temptation of a circular saw.

If this compartment were more common, it might become meaningless to thieves.

I'm wondering why we have not seen this option widely seen before now.

none of that is here nor there when adding a "ranch hand bumper" for the purpose with a gun rack built into the truck... it kind of goes with the territory in the humor of the idea.

PV, I am sure most people saw your humor.

Some peoples minds are so tuned into seeing hate.... they have no humor....outside their collection of targets.
