rubber bed mat vs weathertech techliner

[slowindown]

I've had a rubber bed mat in my last two trucks and I've liked them. My truck has been shipped so I've been ordering accessories. I've only seen the techliner on weather tech's website and would be interested in it vs a rubber bed mat.

I use a truck bed for hauling atvs, firewood, tools and similar things, I won't have a camper shell or truck bed cover/tonneau.

I only use Rino Lining spray in. It's 3/16 or so thick and takes a serious beating. And I don't have to worry about it flying out.

Well my rubber mats have never flown out, or even considered it. They’re pretty heavy. The main reason I like them is that stuff doesn’t slide around, while protecting the floor.

I don’t have much experience with spray in bed liners other than in friends’ trucks. I don’t know what brand(s) they had. Is the Rhino rubbery so stuff stays where you put it or enamel-like such that things can slide around.

Rino linings are non slip.

Thanks. I’ll look into those too.

It's spray on, so permanent. Super tough tho.

Had it in my 3/4 ton GMC for almost 20 years no issues. Have it in my (new to me) 07 3/4 ton Ram, too. Been there 15 years according to original owner.

I ran by my local truck accessory shop. Their brand is pro coat. It was pushing $600 for a long bed and I looked at a sample - not non-slip. According to the rhino site, my nearest installer is about 80 miles away. I've had the rubber mat in my 07 ram since a few days after I bought it 14 years ago and it's held up fine. They're under $200. So I guess I'll just stick with that.

I use horse mats from Tractor Supply. You ain’t gonna wear it out and it darn sure ain’t gonna blow out. The one in the back of my truck I’ve had for 11 years and 5 different trucks.
