Kinda pricey at the dealer ($140), but it is a nice, heavy duty mat that fits perfectly, in case anyone was interested.

I ain't got time to be posting no pics of a fricking bed mat, boy! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

It came with cutouts for the hooks and drains. It's custom fitted, so there's no chance of it sliding (even if it wasn't so thick and heavy).

If you don't have a bed mat, it's worth getting. I have a picture but NO WAY am I gonna post it in the middle of this cat fight. Unless you want me to.

Note the four tie-down holes and drain holes on each side. The mat is beveled (if that's the right word) so the edges are thinner than the middle. You can see the thickness of the middle section in the tie-down holes.

No bull! Snopes calls it real. http://www.snopes.com/photos/animals/uglydog.asp

It is pretty freaky. My youngest daughter screamed big time when she first saw it.

All those dew claws . . . no wonder it's bald.

Consider this thread officially hijacked. Sorry!

Really nice mat. I'd like to get one. Has anyone thought about doing a spary on liner in the bed like Line-X or something. I also really want the bed cover, but $900+ from the dealer isn't exactly what I want to spend.

They are coming out with a new style bed cover I heard...Not sure when. It is suppose to be better...

Line-X is an interesting idea but I'm not sure how compatible the spray is with beds that have lots of moving parts like ours do. Guess you could just spray the bottom?

IMO the real benefit to the bed mat is that it cushions lashed-down gear. When I'm offroad I carrry a metal toolbox and an old cooler full of straps, shackles and other stuff and I've never had anything shift or get damaged. Never even heard the toolbox rattle.

A less expensive mat option can be found at Home Depot or Lowes. They sell 4'x4', 3/4" thick floor mats that have holes in them and are easily cut to fit. $25. I bought a couple for my roof and bed racks -- they work like a champ and protect the racks' powdercoat from metal gear. No doubt they would do the same for the bed floor.

Just to clarify, VT and I go back a little ways, from another message board. It's all in good fun.

And thanks for posting that pic, you got that freak off my back. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif
