Bedrug
As part of the latest upgrade for my
2003 S-10 I wanted to get a bedliner of some type installed, as well as a
truck topper.
I looked a variety of options for pickup truck
bedliners. None of them were quite what I wanted. I knew right off the bat
that plastic drop in liners can crack or weather undesireably. Sprayed in
liners presented a better option, but the quality of the job was largely
determined by the person installing it. I wasn't quite sure what I wanted
to do, as none of the readily available choices really seemed
appropriate.
I read and participate in the alt.trucks.chevy newsgroup and that's
where I first heard of the Bedrug product. I did some studying at the Bedrug website and got to thinking that
this was the bedliner I was really looking for!
I saved my money
for a while and managed to get a good package deal on a minorly used
topper and the Bedrug from a nearby truck accessories shop. When all was
said and done regarding the installation, the end result was simply
breathtaking. Okay, maybe not breathtaking, but this thing blows all other
bed liner products out of the water in my opinion.
The pictures
provided at the Bedrug website don't even begin to do the quality and fit
of the rug any justice at all. For those who are interested, this page has
a few pictures of the general installation process and the finished
result. Take a look...you will be impressed!
Will it wear well?
Only time is going to tell. I sure hope so, but if not, I've always got
the lifetime warranty.
TAKE YOUR MIND OUT OF THE GUTTER -- THAT'S WATER!
Update: About a year
later, the Bedrug still looks brand new if I clean it. I've had quite a
few things in my truck's bed since then, including sharp metal cases,
trash, vegetation and computers. While the occasional small patch of
Bedrug "fur" has come up, it does not seem to cause a problem and isn't
noticeable. I'm very impressed with the Bedrug product.
