Hey yall, it's been awhile. Lol. Glad to see you again. I went web surfing and found a @TrailFX drop in bedliner and the tailgate cover for $238.83 shipped to my door. Even with $50 for freight the deal is too good to pass up. Mind you, there is not a single picture of what this thing looks like from any website. I emailed and they replied back quickly saying they have zero pictures of what it looks like. So I click send and it shows up 5 days later and I rate it a 95%.
1. It dropped in like a glove, no prep.
2. It retains all the molded 2x4 gaps.
3. The holes for tie downs in back of the bed are aligned perfect.
4. The cubby holes on both sides are precut but was nice because I was able to unbolt my 400w left side, and cubby right side and then template the screw holes.
5. The bedliner covers the 12v power sources at the back. I like this because I have no purpose for them. I can always cut with a oscillating saw and a putty knife later.
6. Its durable as heck, i put a heat gun to it and it budged very little.
7. The very front of the liner sits on top of the bed lip. (If you dont like that, you can always shave it back). I put a roll of velcro under to hold it to the truck and then ran a bead of silcone over the lip. (Pic below, prior to silcone)
The bad:
1. The front tie downs are only accessible from the holes that are cut out in a circle instead of the 2 holes for the tie down. (Pic below)
2. The left side power inverter had to be trimmed ½ inch bottom left of inverter frame to fit the molded part of the liner. I tried on the liner to put some heat and gave it full beans while pressing but there wasn'tany give. The area shaved off does not affect bolt hole area.
3. If you have the bed rails, you will need to drill for that but the circle cut at the front of the bed may not be to your liking (picture below for reference)
4. The very front of the bedliner sit's on top of the front bed rail. I would have liked to see a flush to the top of the rail.
Hope you guys like it. What do you think about? Honest opinions only.
