Do these get slick when wet or cold? QuattroCS recommended them to me?

I don't follow what you mean by "slick". like, does your foot slip off of them when wet?
Yes. I had laser cut floor liners in my last truck and the material looks similar and those would get slick when wet or cold, so I wasn’t sure about this particular product

yah, gotcha now.. I honestly don't step on them. my foot goes directly to the side step from the floorboard. they don't seem to be slippery when the truck gets washed.

No not at all, I have had mine for almost 2 years. Keeps your boots or shoes from scuffing the paint in the door jamb and rocks chipping the rockers like a champ.

Looks good, been eyeing a Retrax for awhile. Could you snap a pic or 2 with the tailgate down? I’ve been trying to determine if my Amp Bed extender will hit the cover rails. On my previous truck I had a BAK Revolver, the bed extender wouldn’t clear the “catch” mechanism at the back. TIA

I've been looking for the same for my 3500 DRW. I'd like to also get a decent tool box to fit in front of the retrax can, under the cover, and in front of my B&W companion hitch.
Anyone have suggestions?

Took the new Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT's out for a quick shakedown. They performed flawlessly and gave me a ton of confidence on the loose, rut covered FSR. Carli Backcountry kit still reminding me why I spent all those pretty pennies as well

I’m also looking for a good toolbox to fit under the Retrax and not interfere with my B&W Companion 5th-Wheel Hitch. I can’t believe no one makes an L shaped toolbox. Only thing I’ve found that’s L shaped is the toolbox/auxiliary fuel tank. I don’t need more fuel, I have the 50 gallon tank option now.
Let me know if you find something that fits. I’ll do the same if I find something.

Sorry, got home to late for pics. But if you search on YouTube of the installs of this tonneau cover, you’ll get an idea. Looking at your bed extender online, I don’t see why this cover wouldn’t fit.
Good luck.

Mine litterally arrived yesterday, plan on using for my phone and RV Backup camera. So far very happy with the quality!

I was looking for the same thing to fit in the back of my 2021 2500. You might want to take a look at the Smittybilt Adventure box. It fits below the rails and is only 16" wide so it shouldn't interfere with the 5th wheel hitch. I used an auto-slider hitch with the puck system and the box fit fine, but because of the box design of the hitch, I couldn't open the bottom drawer in the box. Most of the B&W companion hitches have a gap underneath in the middle or a kind of X patterned mount for the puck system so I would think the drawer would be accessible. I didn't have a tonneua cover on my truck so I am not sure if it will fit under all types, especially the Retrax depending on how much room is required to store the tonneua when rolled back.
I agree with you on some type of L-shaped box for those of us that don't go the long bed route. More than half the rigs I see at RV parks hauling 5th wheels have a standard bed (+/- 6 feet), so you would think there is a market for boxes that fit in the back of a standard bed trucks with a 5th wheel hitch.
