Should You Use A Rubber Mat Under A Truck Bed Camper

Question:

How much does this bed mat weigh for a 2021 Ford Ranger with 6 foot box? Would it be a good choice to prevent a slide-in camper from shifting in the bed? Thanks!

Expert Reply:

The DeeZee Custom-Fit Truck Bed Mat # DZ87018 weighs approximately 44lbs. Yes, a rubber mat like this one would definitely help with any sliding issues you're having with your truck bed camper. This will also act as a protective barrier and help prevent the camper from scratching or marring the bed of your 2021 Ford Ranger.
