A vehicle having a pick-up box includes a front wall, first and second sidewalls, and a tailgate forming a pick-up box. A first slide member is longitudinally mounted to one of the first and second sidewalls and a second slide member is disposed for telescopic movement between a stowed position and an extended position within the first slide member. The first slide member is mounted such that at least a portion of the second slide member extends outside of the pick-up box in the extended position for ease of access by a vehicle operator standing behind or near the tailgate. At least one hook is attached to or supported by the first slide member for supporting bags of groceries or the like. A handle is attached to an end of the first slide member for moving the slide member between the stowed and the extended positions and a bumper is mounted to the second slide member to limit its movement.
