So I've read the various threads on dryboxes and based on inspection of the lid styles, definitely going with either MadCow or Recretec. Similar designs and Recretec will put tabs on it so it sits on frame just like MadCow. My main question is whether the extra 0.02 of aluminum gauge is worth it. Recretec says they use 0.08 and Madcow uses 0.1. I have a tractor seat bolted to piece of plywood (bolts recessed into wood) that will sit on drybox with my 200 lbs on it, thus you would think I would go with Madcow. However, the reason I pause is that due to width I need, it's a special order from Madcow, thus all in cost is nearly $100 (~20%) more than Recretec. Is the 0.02 gauge of additional aluminum thickness worth it / needed?
Also, not looking to recreate the debate between shoebox lid and squeeze flat design. I've decided on latter already.
