Look up DeeZee on Amazon. They sell rubber mats that are cut to fit specific truck beds.

Best Truck Bed Mat??
Get a rubber horse stall mat. Dirt cheap and fit great. Something like this from a local ranch supply store or the like near you: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.gre...ack-humane.php
I use 3 in the winter to weigh down my truck bed for traction. .75” thick ones weigh about 100 lbs each.
Rubber cushions the skis from the abrasive bed liner I have too
Might be a little bit smelly (rubber) for a while. Safe for horses though, should be safe for dogsLast edited by Muggydude; 10-11-2018 at 09:12 PM.

Bed rug is great for dogs. They say it is good without a topper, but I can’t see it working well uncovered. Mine has been under a cap since day one. Great fit.

You need to elevate them or you won't have a bed much longer. This is without a topper. Other than that, just cut some industrial rubber roll.

Bed rug came with a pickup I bought. Thought I’d hate it but really like it. Especially for our dogs and sleeping in the back. I do have a trailer if I have to haul dirt or gravel.

We’ve had our bed rug for five years and it has been great. Gravel, wood chips, lumber, skis. Would definitely buy again.

I have a Husky liner for the back of my Sequoia, and it works great and the dog seems ok with it.
For my truck, I had a heavy rubber mat that was sized specifically for my truck, and it was awesome. Curl up? Not a chance with this thing. I don't remember who made it, but I do remember that it was MakersTelemark who turned me on to the thing in the first place, so maybe he knows?"fuck off you asshat gaper shit for brains fucktard wanker." - Jesus Christ

Jesus, that was almost 20 years ago. I can't remember. Had one in my Tacoma when I moved to Colorado.

fuck, it was a long time ago. 2001 probably.
googling shows things like DeeZee truck bed mats, that look similar."fuck off you asshat gaper shit for brains fucktard wanker." - Jesus Christ

Another vote for stall mat. They're made from ground up tires. Almost indestructible. Regular mats are 3/4" but I have a 4' x 8' x 1/2" mat specifically for truck beds. They're also used under truck campers. Check your local farm supply store.
If you have a problem & think that someone else is going to solve it for you then you have two problems.

3/4” stall mat cut to bed length.

Interlocking floor mat pieces, you can buy them in Lowe's for super cheap. Foam or hard rubber that fit together like puzzle pieces. Size them to fit your bed, I did my 2000 Tundra and didn't even need to cut them. Pretty damn durable, camped and hauled dogs with them for years. If you get a cut or a section gets worn out, just pop in another one.

Stall mats are the winner here. Cheap ($40 last I bought some) and they won't wear out.

My vote is for stall mats also.
TSC sells these: http://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/pro...t?cm_vc=-10005. The underside has a coin pattern, 50-cent-piece sized. I can't see these ever curling up or deforming, $42 and made in Canada.“The best argument in favour of a 90% tax rate on the rich is a five-minute chat with the average rich person.”

We got this 4'x8' x 5/8" mat at Princess Auto

seemed to be cheaper than the one we had got for the truck for putting in a camper

^^^ texture of the bedrug, little give and thought any additional bed on top would be more stationary. We'll see, big test will be the roadtrip to hell. Thanksgiving in Kansas.
