I see, it is still not what I expected. I understand that the fabric may give a bit, but as it turned out, it is not what I want.

I like it, but I’d be scared to use my truck as a truck!
That's why you take it out if you need to use the bed for dirty stuff. It's marine gradencsroet and foam, so no issues getting wet. I just power washed mine to clean some oil off of it from hauling an engine block to machine shop.I like it, but I’d be scared to use my truck as a truck!
My cousin still owns a 95 Silverado his dad bought new, and I’m pretty sure the Bed Rug was installed in the late 90s. It looked great at a family BBQ just a couple months ago. Granted he babies that truck, but it’s held up amazingly in an open bed for more than 20 years. Have to assume they’ve only gotten better since then.

I use it as a truck weekly.
I had a 15' tall tree getting blown down last spring, chopped it up and loaded it into the truck and hauled to the dump, no harm to the bedrug.
I have a tarp that I can place on the bed on top of the bedrug if I were ever worried about damaging it but nothings ever happened to it, it's been in the truck for 5 years.
Realistically, I'd rent a $20 u haul ramp trailer if I need to haul dirt or mulch simply due to the ease of unloading
My previous truck had on as well, the only damage that it had was from an idiot at Lowe's that loaded a pallet of junipers in the back and then tried to slide the pallet while I was paying.
They bought me a new bedrug but that likely would have damaged a spray in liner as well.

Spent a week in the woods and traveled many gravel and dirt roads! Truck was a mess when I got home.

Friday the 4th -
Gone camping in the mountains.
It doesn't look like a lot but the truck was 9 degrees off before the rocks.
Even with the rocks I was still about 2 degrees off.
Also tried e-biking... a much welcoming change when trying to ride a 1996 bike with a gear changer that goes through the whole pre-flight checklist before deciding to change gear.
(both bikes - e-bike and the 1996 bike - belong to my friend. I need to go get my bike from the storage and do a complete overhaul since last time I rode it was... 2012. I don't even know if that thing rusted away already or not)
It was this scenery that I decided to not mess with leveling the truck further. Usually I only accept 1 degree off but this scenery...
