Bed Mat Options

[Eddyrelik]

So I’m finally selling my Toyota Tacoma preparing for my Foundation Order. And the only accessory that has me worried is a bed mat. The factory bed mat in my Tacoma was the best Mat I have ever seen. Nice solid flat surface, Took every beating, stayed in place with everything. Perfect grip. Never folded. Just amazing honestly.

And when I get my CT, I need a Mat. Heck, we all need a Mat honestly. I’m surprised Tesla didn’t make one as an accesory. Bare plastic bed is impossible haha. So what aftermarket company is going to make one for CT that is great?

Rough Country looks similar ?. Hopefully they add a Cybertruck model.

TSportline looks like only option now…but does not look great honestly. A million hexagons to trap everything ?

Something is bound to 'ROLL_UP'.....
Any day now!
ps. Access to storage cubby might call for 'seal_of_approval' overlap flaps!!
( Reduce chances of water sitting below )

ah damn you’re right. There has to be a “flap” that allows access to the cubby/gear locker. That means probably more R&D and more waiting ?

Nah... a good razor knife or scissors, and double sided gorilla tape!

Why do we need a bed mat?

I agree the OEM Toyota bed mat is excellent. I installed one in my old Tacoma and absolutely loved it.

Why do we need a bed mat?

They want to protect their polymer bed with more polymer? ?

Never had a pickup truck I suppose? ? The beds are a slippery polymer, and not flat (lots of raised surfaces). So anything you put in there will slide around and tip over easily. A thick/heavy mat creases a nice flat, grippy surface. Plus it takes any beating of loads, scratches, hits vs the bed itself. Its definitely a must/high recommendation if you plan to use the bed. I guess the only reason I'd say you dont need it is if you dont use the bed or if you use it for dirt/sand/etc.....

Actually, I've only had trucks. Never needed a bed mat.

Go down to tractor supply and get one of these. If you want to use the storage below, cut it back to lift with the lid.

we’ve used these for years and years
Super soft on the knees, heavy enough not to need adhesives if the vault is open and reversible so you can either have an easy to sweep surface or more traction

Thanks for posting this thread. My beloved 2002 Tacoma ships off to my niece today and I absolutely need a mat in my CB as I will use it for landscaping, construction, etc. The existing bed will get torn to pieces with the everyday use I expect to experience. Hadn't considered Tractor Supply, but will certainly check it out, thanks.

Just looked at this option, which is more customized for the floor mounts and access to the storage area, but not sure I like the material...

I purchased the BestEVmod bed mat on Amazon. It is much thinner than the Tacoma bed mat, but it has hinges for the smugglers bay.

I did like the Tacoma one better, but this one meets the need.
