Abstract
A system is configured to expand and secure storage in a pickup truck with a truck cab and a truck tail gate. The system includes a tray floor mechanically coupled to tray sides and tray ends forming an open parallelepiped configured to fit immediately adjacent to the truck cab and the truck tail gate covering a truck bed. The open parallelepiped has a depth that does not go below wheel wells on the pickup truck. The system connects to the truck cab and the truck tail gate in order to secure truck bed storage.
