Most Popular Bed Floor And Tailgate Protection for 2001 Dodge Ram Pickup

Unlike everyone selling items they don't have in stock, Etrailer doesn't. And their communication is outstanding before, during and after the sale including a "follow your package" link. The rarity of both service and most often the best price, makes this my first stop for trailer, camper or towing needs. I appreciate how hard they work to earn my business.

Easy installation. Heavy duty construction.

Convenient and well built.

First off, I would give etrailer 5 stars, they are awesome. This bed liner however is not what I expected. It is about 3/4 inches thick but is like a closed cell foam rubber skinned with a thin layer of hard plastic on top. It is molded to fit the bed corrugations which is nice but has a lot of "give" to it. The liner is hook and loop into the bed and is VERY light. The tailgate extension is sealed to the main liner which I like. The tailgate cover is hook and loop onto the tailgate as well. That part is not long for this world for a work truck as the exposed edge at the top of the tailgate is just that, exposed for all heavy objects to snag on the way into the truck bed when the tailgate is opened. The cover also does not sit flush with the center of the tailgate, it sort of bulges so to speak. I had figured I would use the tailgate access panel attachment screws to better hold the cover into place but the cover is so soft fear it would just look like junk. The main mat itself is short of going all the way to the sides by quite a bit, maybe an inch or so all the way around. Given they molded the bottom to fit the corrugation, they could have easily molded the bottom to fit the curvature of the bed sides/bottom and continued the mat another 2-3 inches on left and right sides to protect better. I chose to use the mat as I made my bed so to speak but in the past, the hard, firm rubber mats and hard plastic screw down liners for tailgates have served me perfectly. Time will tell and if this cover works better than I fear, will happily correct my review. Again though, etrailer is an awesome company to work with.

Have had Bed Rug Impact mats prior to this, when I purchased this truck the Bed Rug brand was backordered. Sales person pointed me at this becuase it was in stock and I wasn't wanting to wait. A year later, I sure wish the Bed Rug had been in stock, this isn't holding up too well. Feels and looks very cheap compared. The way it attaches to the tailgate there is always some thing catching on it and pulling at it, the Bed Rug Impact mat also had a mesh connecting between the bed and the tailgate mat, stuff wouldn't fall thru but it held no water. I intend to replace this at some point. Pretty disappointed in it, I'd heard of WeatherTech but I'll prolly pass on their stuff in the future.

Perfect
