"Our end-user based research showed a very positive response to these enhancements on our Model 127 so we decided to expand them to the 126, 117, and the 116," said Mike Sover, senior product manager. "These upgrades provide additional value to the end-user at no additional cost."
These upgrades increase security and productivity. The attachment points offer the user the ability to safeguard tools and supplies by running a cable and lock to the truck box for extra protection. The "Easy Find" organization improves productivity since equipment is easier to locate.
