This should seriously be a weekly video series. 10/10

[@Hybris51129]

Nathan is the best host to watch especially for things like these product tests. He doesn't come off as a know it all and is lot more pragmatic when looking at products. Really does help cut down on the cringe.

[@whatchalookin429]

Nathan- *Looks back at Andre using step* "I'd rather her do it" 😂😂😂

I laughed so hard I snorted when he said that.

[@machfive916]

Great video. Informative and funny. Love the interaction between Nathan and Andre. I think the Carhartt "duck canvas" seat organizer simply refers to the material in which it was made, as Wikipedia states that "duck canvas is a heavy, plain woven cotton fabric. Duck canvas is more tightly woven than plain canvas". Perhaps this means it is water repellent.

[@jeffforbes70]

it what they made most of their original work wear out of.

[@craigquann]

I think you're right. Pretty sure most of the car seat covers are made from that as it's durable and reasonably water resistant.

[@machfive916]

@@jeffforbes70 Not totally sure, as I only have a few Carhartt t-shirts. However, I've seen their jackets and "heavy duty" work pants and they seem to be made of a thick, rugged material.

[@WestVirginiaCope]

The door step is actually pretty neat. Even if you just washed and waxed trucks a lot that would make doing the top much easier.

[@CptLang97]

Duck is the name for the water resistant canvas that the organizer is made from. It's also the material used for a lot of Carhartt outerwear. Really good stuff

This was great, ya'll should make more videos like this. Giving the guys random accessories to try out was entertaining. It's actually pretty useful info. I've bought or had gimmicky accessories given to me that were completely useless, but I've had some stuff surprise me and actually be very handy.

20:18 Cotton Duck (from Dutch doek,"linen canvas")… but Carhartt marketing has appropriated the term for their nylon material to give it credibility

[@shitloveaduck]

Bedankt! Taken from translator. Hope it’s correct.😊

[@anotherrandomtexan25]

The carhartt has duck in the name because that's what they call the canvas like material they use in a lot of their stuff... they have duck jackets and shirts! I even have fitted seat covers of the same material, they're super expensive but IMHO they've completely worth it!

I kinda want a Banks I Dash for my new Denali Ultimate Duramax but it attaches to the glass and I can't stand anything like that especially in a luxury truck. I could see in a cheaper work truck or something but I don't want that cluttering up my truck. It would be nice to know when its going to regen and all though

[@stevevice9863]

A Carhartt shirt is going to cost $35-50 bucks, so $50 for the seat organizer isn't too bad with all the pockets and pouches it takes more material and labor.

[@Mr330d]

You’re paying for the name . The material is filthy cheap

[@trillchinop]

they’re force tshirts are $25 and i’ve got like 8 of them. wonderful for hard days at work(concrete worker) definitely still pretty good quality considering all the other brands out there.

[@shoveI]

I don't care what part of it I'm paying for, all my Carhartt stuff has been durable. No name stuff is a roll of the dice. I'll spend the money on guaranteed happiness rather than try to save a buck and end up disappointed.

Duck is the type of cotton fabric they use.

[@hojo70]

I installed the tailgate ladder on my F150, I love it. Excellent product and great design. Makes getting in the bed effortless!

[@shitloveaduck]

It works when you have a trailer attached as well! The factory step is a no-go when you are hooked up to a trailer and want into the box. Using the trailer as a step itself works, but is a tall step at 20” or taller. Nice idea.

[@jasont1079]

I also have that ladder for my ram 2500. I love it!

[@mendonesiac]

"Duck" is the type of fabric. Cotton duck is tightly woven canvas that when waxed or oiled becomes waterproof. It's the same type of material that Carhartt uses to make their jackets and overalls.

[@eddyflo2978]

More like this please, definitely entertaining. Especially teaching us new ways to beat a Goose to death

[@marnielarocque9412]

I think your tail gate ladder is not a waste of money because it may be a great solution to your Ram camping build, to climb into the overhead bed or mount it to a piece of plywood that is drilled to mount into existing holes just need to increase the length of the fasteners. Easy peasy

I think the most useful accessory I bought for my truck was a tailgate assist damper. My truck is older and did not come from the factory with a soft open tailgate so I installed an aftermarket dampening shock. No drilling was custom fit and been working great for years. Wasn’t that expensive either. Great purchase.

[@anthonynolfi5753]

Loved this video. I bought my new truck nearly a year ago and I’ve been obsessed with the different accessories out there. Cool to see some feedback if any of these accessories are worth it or not.

[@jamieshields9521]

Great vid TFL, I would pick mat especially if loading over tray side or working in engine bay but ladder step would be useful, I don’t mind drilling holes as I climb up on my flat tray to reach into my toolbox or camping in my swag on back of the tray. Extra lights maybe ladder set up or undoing spare wheel would make useful mod. Air compressor, power outlet would be great features too.

[@AABrock]

I agree with Nathan, I hate aftermarket gadgety clutter. Engineered solutions that a dealership might typically partner with because the OEM doesn’t have a offering are usually pretty good.

[@jamescampbell720]

The Carhartt organizer is called Duck because it’s made out of duck canvas material. It’s made of cotton but the duck material has to do with the way it’s woven. It’s very sturdy and resistant to wear and abrasion.

[@dineenhorse6665]

Not all of us have those fancy new trucks with the steps that help you climb into the box of your truck so the ladder would be useful to us guys that don't have the fancy tailgate steps offered in newer trucks. Great vid over all would love to see more vids like this!

[@davidchappelle3212]

i have seen factory ones on all trucks made in the last 7 or 8 years except for the ridgeline.... you can add them on after the fact but I'm guessing the one in the fords tailgate would be expensive to add on.

[@JesseLJohnson]

Up until a few weeks ago I never had a fancy tailgate and never had an issue. I always climbed in with the tail gate shut though just stepped on the rear bumper in front of the license plate and climbed on in. You can leave a step stool in the bed too just pull it out when you need it and not drill holes in your tailgate. I just bought a brand new Denali Ultimate though so I have a fancy tailgate now. It even has 700 watt Kickers in it never seen a tail gate with speakers

As a truck driver, I had to have a good phone mount. I only mounted to the window to keep my eyes nearest to the road when running my truck gps, and the vent mount will destroy your vents over time. If you want the sturdiest mount, check your local truck stop. The one I have is huge and kind of ugly but if you're putting down big miles they last much longer. Regular ones might last a couple months with heavy use

Ok no rust. However Andre has a point. This am i watched a video wher guy was intalling accessory lights in the spkr tailgate locations on a Silverado. There were multiple wire/cable runs inside.

[@billjamison2877]

@@genewind4850 On my Ram, there are two inspection plates held down with a few screws. All tailgates have some sort of access to the interior of the tailgate so you have the ability to work on the lock assembly and see inside, etc. I was an autobody repairman for many, many years so I now what I'm talking about. Another way is to just look online for installation guidelines. I love Andre's reviews, but he does have this phobia about rust as I have seen in other videos he has done. Legitimate worries in some areas for rust...installing this ladder, don't worry about it. Put a little smootz around the screw holes and enjoy the ride. Just do your homework prior to installing and you'll be fine.

I actually really like the phone holder/charger. I use my phone to stream podcasts and videos while driving. It's nice having it up there to be able to flip to another video. I basically use my phone as my car radio. I might have to look into it!! The seat organizer might be good too.
