Bed Rug vs. Gaylord
Bed Rug vs. *******
The quality of Bed Rug is terrific. I haven't seen the ******* but the cost is the same, evidently ******* uses marine plywood on 3 sides. Has anyone had experience with *******? I read posts on Bed Rug and people say they are going to buy more velcro etc. Wonder which one is better/
I had mine LineX's, but when he did it he did a meticulous job prepping the bed for later service and drainage. One thing he did was remove those bed bolts on the bottom of the bed before spraying. I can now remove them whenever I want and/or use them to bolt things like tool boxes to the bed.
The point is - if you are really worried about the rug blowing out you could always remove those bolts with a Torx socket, punch small holes in the rug, and replace those bolts. You'd have some exposed heads, but you'd never have to worry about the rug shifting. I'd imagine if you used the side tie-downs to hold the rug in place it wouldn't shift either. Use both and no worries.

Ken- I was recently at *******'s store in Long Beach CA to check out their tonneaus. They have one of their rugs on display and I saw a customers Dodge that just had their rug installed. It looked decent but not when compared to the BedRug. I went with the BedRug instead for my Lightning. The BedRug fits like a glove. It looks like it was painted on to the bed of my truck. *******'s rug didn't hug the bed like the BedRug, and even sagged a little. If they are the same price, there is no question.
