Just traded my 2004 3500 for a 2015 2500. Much to my chagrin the fold out storage tray is a accessory... my 2004's was made from sturdy metal.. the 2015 appears to be constructed of plastic... will the 2004 fit a 2015? or is the plastic tray "robust"?
thanks all ?

My '03's tray folded out by holding the round **** like handle and lifting and bringing it forward. At the same time, the support leg automatically went from the folded in position to the down/support position. I liked it a lot.

My '15 is different. Not only is it plastic but you have to pull up and lock in place two plastic support legs, then flip the tray forward. More of a pain. The tray rubs the underside of the seat as you pull it up, not like the '03 which moved clear of the seat.

I don't know how long the plastic one will last. It seems sturdy. My trucks came with them as standard equipment so I don't know what the cost would be and I'm not sure if the older tray would fit the newer truck. Let me know if you want a pic or two.
Back to morning brew . . .

Thanks..i must the overal quality of the 2015 is not nearly as robust as my 2004...one can clearly see the cost cutting measures momma Chrysler has taken....😔

OK, went out to check it out today and I was mistaken. The folded out platform is covered in a carpet like covering so I can't see what it is actually made of and I'm not taking it apart to see. But the legs/supports are plastic.
