I don't own a pickup truck so I'm curious about what truck owners think
of the drawer system built on this episode of Wasted Spaces.

It seems practical, but as a non-truck owner, I don't know what I don't
know.

What's not to know? It starts out saying:
"Contractor Matt Hill's truck is his home away from home – and good
storage on the road is crucial to getting the job done."
Seems pretty self-explanatory to me, I'm surrised you felt the need to
ask.

It's part of his making a living, so, yeah, it's practical. For
him. For me, who owns a 1978 Chevy El Camino daily driver, and don't
need something like that, no, not practical - for me it would just be a
junk collector. However, I have been considering making a
compartmentalized box type thingie (that's a professional term), on the
tailgate end of the bed,. It would be held in pace by the wheelwells,
and would hold the jack, spare, lug wrench, and provide a bit of
holding space for groceries, etc.,to keep the stuff from sliding around,
maybe with a hinged top. For me, "that" would be practical.
