I came across possibly one of the weirdest official automotive accessories this morning, courtesy of a friend’s social media feed. It’s called the “Truckle,” and it’s a hand-crafted silver and bronze belt buckle that might be the envy of every other cowboy out there, since this one has a place to keep your F-150’s key fob without ruining the lines of your jeans.
The Truckle was designed by Utah-based A Cut Above Buckles, with a hand-engraved F-150 on the bump in the front. Behind the truck? Storage space for a Ford truck key fob, which should fit any F-150 from model year 2018 onward.
“You can put your key fob in the buckle—all your remote features work while it’s in the buckle,” designer Andy Andrews told the Detroit Free Press. “Once you have it in there, you’re not going to lose that key fob. You’re not going to be scratching your head (wondering) where it’s at. It’s right there with you in the Truckle.”
This sounds like a fascinating innovation! It’s always interesting to see how car manufacturers are thinking outside the box to solve everyday problems. Looking forward to hearing more about how the “Truckle” works in practice!
