Bed Mat Theft Prevention?

I got mine for cheaper from a user here, but its well worth it even at $100. Most of the time in the summer I will leave my tailgate down because I haul my kayak around a fair amount, so its good piece of mind knowing I can leave it down and not worry about it walking off.

 

With the price of ammo now it might be cheaper to let them take the bed mat

 

If anyone can give me a good deal on a

haha really? You'd pull a gun on someone over a bed mat? I guess that's the difference between a gun owner and a responsible gun owner.

 

just a thought

 

Hey you're not wrong: 2 poo piles better than 1!

 

OK, yeah, I'll give ya that one.. LOL! I have no doubt it's true..
On the other hand .. (True Story)
1972.. 1st car in high school ... I saw some guy taping a piece of carpet over my 68' Corona passenger-side window that was about to bust my window out to steal my $39.95 8-Track player. I went out and busted the guy across the back with an aluminum soft-ball bat.
Personally.. I would go all out to protect a nice spiral-cut honey-baked ham. So ... There's that.
Even tough it was 1972, I'm still surprised I wasn't convicted of some sort of Felony for making some thief limp away half-broken ..
Then ... Now ... LOL!!!!

 

If you have to make a post on here about being worried about someone stealing a bed mat you probably don't need to be a gun owner. It was kinda of a pun. I never said I would pull a gun for someone stealing a bed mat. Hell I'll give you the one on the back of my truck for free if you need it. You pay shipping. You don't even know me!

Edit: I see a turd gen in the pic now I get it.

 

You should put your name on it.
Serializing it probably wouldn't be a bad idea either. Just in case the forthcoming bed mat theft investigation team turns up two Taco owning folks that happen to share the same name. (Both with simultaneous open bed mat theft investigations, of course.)

 

I got all worried reading this thread and had to go check.
Still there.
Whew.

 

Stay vigilant..

 

Wowza

talk about a hustle lmao

 

Dude must look like a lady.

 

We should all write our TW member numbers on the back!

 

I'm fairly sure my TW number is just a penis followed by a bunch of zeroes.

 

can i just put "8675309"

 

I call 80085

 

Glue it down. Get glue from hardware store.

 

right?! they gonna bill you for two minutes of time. haha

 

Yeah I kinda didn’t even read the question. But this is fair point.

If I were trying to secure bed mat... hmm maybe make a small hole in bottom of bed mat and put a lock/cable on the d rings.

also just take the cover out at night or when leaving somewhere unfamiliar with an empty bed?
