Anyone use BedRug carpet?

Almost everyone on here uses it and it’s almost unanimously loved.
OP
I like mine but do recommend installing some heat insulation on the front floorboards.

I had a friend that installed it, also loves it.
I've never heard of someone that didn't like it. My carpet is in good shape, but the bedrug looks better.

I know what Santa’s bringing youGuess I didn't get the memo.
There really isn't a downside to it. Yes, it takes a little work to install it, but it's no harder than regular carpet. I've had it in several Jeeps and two trucks, with no regrets.
Yup, '05 Chevy long bed since new, '18 Ford long bed since new and now my LJR. I installed Hotheads liner with BedRug on top. Took awhile but turned out great. First mod I did on all these rigs.
I considered the BedMat, same company, more of a bedliner texture but like the original for when I'm in 'n out in shorts.

That makes two of us. My factory carpet is still in good shape though. I’ll probably switch to BedRug when the time comesGuess I didn't get the memo.

I installed mine about 2 weeks ago. It has been great so far. Noticeably quieter and better insulated.
BedTred has a texture like spray in bedliner. Might be tougher but I'm not hauling gravel. Neither absorb any fluids so moisture stays on top. Polypropylene so basically recycled milk jugs.
My big dog cut an artery and nearly bled out on the way to the vet. Simply washed it out with a hose. Impervious to battery acid, etc, etc.

Did you cut holes for the drain holes or did you wet vac it out? Does it essentially just pool up rather than soak in if it gets rained on?
I did not cut for drain plugs. I'm not opposed to that and it might be a good idea. It will pool and/or run to the low spots. Figure a shop vac and sunshine should dry it if it gets soaked. Will likely pressure wash it if it gets very dirty. Just remove seats, pull it off the velcro fasteners, drag it out on the lawn and let it rip, then sun dry. Nice and clean.
Has to be better than a less than perfect spray or roll in bedliner that will permanently trap dirt and moisture.
One caveat. If you're using flame or a heat gun to say, shrink tube wiring, it will melt very fast.. ask me how I know. Invisible tho'.
Ok gotcha so you’re actually pulling it it out to hose it off. So you don’t have to remove the center console to install it? Does it just tuck under the edge a little bit?
