Default Off the wall ?

My truck has a tonneau cover (as I am sure many of you guys have as well) Anyways, from time to time I haul a few tools (mainly hand tools) around with me. I always find that they slide around (even with the bed mat) and end up way up by the cab. I have to then take the cover off (unroll it) to retrieve them. Do any of you guys have some sort of block off thing that goes in front of the wheel wells? Is there anything made to keep things from sliding back towards the cab? Just kinda wondering if any of you guys have something in the bed of the truck to keep small things from rolling around. Dumb question I know....but its worth a shot.

IF you get the bed extender thing they have now for the shorter beds and flip it back (in the closed tailgate position), you will have a little cage to put things it. I am sure you have seen them? I am pretty sure they make one for the gm's now.

There are grooves in the side of the bed that are made for puting a 2x4 or 2x6 in. You could get a piece of aluminium rectangular tubing and polish it for bling.

The other cool thing you can do is have the 2x6 LineX'd for a little something more durable/different.
