Any suggestions for storage bins with clear tops? Want to clean up my pass-through storage area

I recently found that Home Depot has Husky storage bins in a few sizes with clear tops. To boot, they're dust and waterproof with an o-ring gasket. I haven't tested them out very long so I can't speak to the durability, but so far I like them.

We use several different sizes clear bins to stay organized. Just picked them up from menards and they've been holding up great.

On our way to NY to see family. This was our first stop in Max Meadows VA. When we got to our spot there was a White Tremor next to us but they left before I could get a picture of both trucks together. So far our average MPG is 14.6, super happy with that.

So I just traded my 09 F150 in for a 21 6.7 Tremor and need to figure out my towing setup. I have a 23(overall) foot <5000lb wildwood TT that I ran the EAZ lift recurve 3 wdh on. The Tremor obviously has a larger receiver (3" I believe) so I was going to replace the shank with a 3 incher. Well I'm finding it a little hard to locate one and I've got a 10 day trip quickly approaching. So I guess my question is do I even need to run a wdh with my camper or should I just buy a drop hitch and call it a day. I'd prefer to run the whd if it's not going to hurt anything because I already have it and the shank is relatively cheap to replace if I can find one. If I can't find an EAZ lift shank does anyone know of a 3"shank that might also work with the recurve "head"? This is the link to the shank.

Highly doubtful that a WDH is indicated. My ORV is 7500-8000 loaded and I'm awaiting delivery this week of a Shocker to replace my Equalizer. The Equalizer was necessary for my F150 but the 900-1000 lb tongue weight doesn't even faze Mjölnir. The Shocker has sway bars available but I didn't even order those. The Shocker is available with a 3" shank which Gen Y does not offer for its Torsion Hitch. I also minutely studied every YouTube available for both and it was clear to me that the Shocker has much more range of motion plus it just stands to reason that the adjustable air bag will offer greater cushioning.
We'll soon see.

Not sure if it's allowed to cross post from classifieds section, delete if not. Figured this thread is a good one in case someone is looking for a turn key rig... https://www.fordtremor.com/threads/...-a-2020-ford-f-350-xlt-crew-cab-tremor.10903/

Thanks for the reply. I did notice that Gen Y has a WDH version available that "should" accept my wdh head I would just need to measure to verify. I'll check out the Shocker though. I just want to find the best option for safety and cost.

Jellystone in Java New York. Great place for kids. 1 week ago there was a blue and black Tremor here. Didn’t get a chance to talk to the other guys but beautiful trucks. We have a newborn so sleeping and mingling schedule is all out of sorts. One guy caught me washing mine. (Very dusty campground). Met some future Tremor owners here this week as well.

A few of the truck & camper photos from our recent trip out west.

Truck was 9 days old and camper was brand new day of purchase. At a clients house just a few days post Hurricane Ida. Ended up staying in S. Louisiana for 64 straight days doing recovery. Truck performance was beautiful “out the box”.

For your trip you could just go buy a 2.5" sleeve and a 2" sleeve - to go inside the 3" sleeve and go with your current 2" shank and WDH set up. Below is a Curt "set" 3" to 2.5" and 2.5" to 2" - $39 - As long as you have that same (light) trailer - that is all you need!

Thanks, I looked at those but was weary of sleeving down that much. I appreciate your response and I'll keep that in my Amazon cart

Went up to Mt. Gilead, OH this weekend. Weather was perfect! Tow was easy peasy. Bilstein 5160's were a great addition for towing.

I tow my 25' boat that way - about 7,000 lbs. loaded - 2" ball, 2" drop bar - no WDH - no issues - boat being different than a TT as it has not real aero issues or side wind issues.

This is truly odd. I've never seen a campsite where the "outdoor" space is on the side opposite the trailer door. Either you rented two spots, or this campground is ass-backwards.
