penda junk
I bought a Penda Skid Resistor bed liner and although it serves the purpose,
the "skid resistor" is anything but that. I ended up throwing some carpet in back because the liner was slick as grease. My tool box became a deadly projectile every time I hit the breaks or gas. For the price and quality, I would not buy one again. Penda liners are garbage.

I am just lucky that I do not have to have grease in the back of my bed. I would just like it if my liner would fit better in the bed.

Another SkidResistor owner here and it fits/looks/works like a charm!
The only [very minor] problem I have it those grooves can be a beech to step on if you're hoping in and out of the bed often. I'm going to purchase a rubber mat soon. Problem solved!

I wish that mine fit like yours does. I like mine however. It does the job and I think that I will stick with it.

I sheet you not, mine fits like a gem and looks a million $$$. I went the SkidResistor for two reasons. I had one on my 2000 F150 Scab Lariat and it looked and worked like a charm.
I looked at the BedRug for a few weeks but it didn't impress me the slightest once I viewed it up close and personal. It looks like a charm in pics but once I viewed and felt it, it didn't impress me one iota . . . at least for what the money's worth. Lightweight, incredibly flimsy and doesn't look all that good . . . very bland IMHO. Just didn't seem like a quality product at all.
As for the spray-ons like Rhino? Oh my! What a piece of crap they are. Spray on some speckle spray onto your bed, as thick as the nail on my pinkie, and call it a bed protector . . . LMAO! Yeah they look good, I'll admit, but that just doesn't cut it for me. No fewer than two friends in the neighborhood have had the Rhino spray-on bedliners and they have dents, chips, scratches and whatnot all over their beds. Great bed protector, huh?
Oh, and I wasn't exactly too fond of my bed being sanded down just as so the Rhino will "bond" so to speak. What gives with that sheet?Hey, to each their own . . .

Boy would that stink if I had to have that done to my bed. I think that I will just stick with my SR.
