Drawback? I see it as an excuse to buy some wheelers for the summer. I plan to leave it on all year, especially since I have the Truckboxx. Installed the rails and feet last night. Took about 2 hours. Guessing it'll take 8 hours for everything.I think a major drawback to the truckboss is the removal process for summer.
I'm still using a classic Marathon deck, but Marlin is building decks a few miles from my house. Maybe I'll have to check them out.
Remove six clamps (or 8 on the 8 footer), 2 nuts on each foot and the whole assembly can lift out in one piece. You could set it on the feet, but I'd probably remove those so you could lean it up against a wall.
Made progress on the install. Still need to put on the headache rack, ramp stuff and the Truckboxx. Will probably have about 10 hours into it when all is done.

Three hours is probably about right, with zero accessories and no slideouts. I've got it all installed, minus the final electrical connections and flip extension. Very happy with the quality.
Got my wheeler loaded and ready to go!
I like my marlon, but the winch and snowbike deal for the truckboss looks sweet.
I have doubts about the snowbike loader. Never used it but the last time I saw it you used a cordless drill to pull the loader up. Seemed like a hack job. But I do like TruckBoss' other innovations. I'm working on ordering one now.
The new trucks are starting to come with the fifthwheel and gooseneck hitches installed from the factory. One of the sled deck manu's should make a plate that uses the 4 pucks in the truck box to fasten their decks in. It would speed the process up so much and it would probably be more secure than using the box anchors. This is my idea and I will sell it for a small fee (patent pending)
