    Yeah, I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on this. I'm so sick of shit sliding around in the bed! Had one on my last truck. It's a must have for any truck owner.

    Thanks for the info. Just returned from getting the leaf spring TSB installed and while there I checked the price for the mat at the dealership. Over $140 "installed". Ordered here for $59.90 delivered to my home and I'll take care of the difficult installation.

    i have the mat and let me tell you, the "smell"" as others are saying is nonsense, there is no smell, anything new smells, sneakers, tires, dishwasher, tv's, everything, but this thing for its price is well worth it, very thick, very easily trimmed for the shotrbed users, and seems durable, i love it. and i know you will too, :) enjoy those who ordered it

    Mine "smelled" for a short while after I opened the package, but that's it. I have my tonneau closed most of the time and there's no smell under it.

    I could smell mine for a couple of weeks after I installed it - especially after the truck had been parked in the hot sun and I opened the rear window after I got in and took off. It was just a fairly strong rubber smell... not overpowering or offensive though. Perfectly normal. The smell is completely gone now, so don't it that steer you away from a good deal. I'm very happy with mine.

    Got my mat today, 5 days after ordering it :D. I've never seen a "genuine" tacoma mat so I can't make a comparison but don't see how it could be worth the extra money. This one fit perfectly in my long bed with the D ring cutouts already there. Yes, it had a pretty strong smell when I took it out of the bag but didn't expect anything less. It's been out for about 5 hours and the smell is almost gone. Matches the bed color so close you almost can't tell there's a mat in the bed. Well worth the $59.90.

    Thanks, I bought my DeeZee bedmat with shipping + tax for $66 today.

    Dee Zee is offering 12% rebate off all purchases until the end of the year. With the rebate should bring it under $60.

    Thanks for the links, been looking for a reasonably priced mat. How do people like the quality of this bed mat?

    It's heavy duty. I've had mine several years and it's holding up just fine.

    I've had mine for well over 2 years now. It fits and works like it should, and it's holding up great. It does a good job of protecting the bed, and best of all it's not slippery when wet (my bed was like walking on ice when wet before I put the mat in). It's probably the cheapest, easiest, and best thing I did for mt truck!

    Thought I should add that I just ordered the DeeZee mat from Amazon for $55.70 shipped. Sweet deal!

    Autoanything.com has 12% bash back on any DeeZee purchase right now. The mat is $49 and about $10 shipping, but it's 2 day FedEx so at least you're getting something special out of it.

    I'm not sure where you're seeimg that price? Autoanything shows a list price of $89 with %12 rebate for me. http://www.autoanything.com/hitch-bed-accessories/75A3665A0A0.aspx

    Ah crap, got my vendors mixed up. It's been awhile since I ordered and I thought I had gotten them from AutoAnything.

    Looked up my old invoice, I actually got mine from Streetsideauto, shipped 2 day FedEx for 59.90

    None so far but looking...
    I know others have mentioned it, but could you guys confirm if the bed mat already includes the cutouts for the rear drings? Or do you have to cut them. Out yourself.
