They look good Bryan but it looks like they take up a bit of room.

I think it's reduced the practicality of having a large boot in a wagon (can put large things in it).
Plus it looks like your permanently helping somebody relocate offices :)
But hey, if it's useful for you then good stuff!

they are a perminate fixture, only for camping and the trip up to NT, mainly for food and the like, there is still heaps of room around them to store and the little things and water bottles, there is only 2 of us in the car when we camp so the back seat has clothes and the bed anyway!!

I have to say, having draws is a HUGE convenience when camping/touring!

Just recently I spent about 2 weeks touring around northern/central NSW and I set up a couple of those plastic draws that come in a stack of 5 (only used 2). Very handy for cooking stuff, and other small items you need on a regular basis.

You won't be disappointed with draws!
