    My '03 Tacoma's bed liner came with a couple of handy slots that I could slide a 2x4 or cargo bar into, to prevent things from rolling forward. The '16 has no such slots, but a couple of rings in the bed.

    How are the other folks here doing cargo management?

    Agreed the OEM bed mat makes a huge difference!

    I also cocur, bed mat makes a huge difference as things don't ridiculously slide around now. Another forum member created a steel divider to separate things in the bed.

    Ebay has a "Rock and Lock" cargo management CM507 divider. I haven't tried it yet, but thinking about it.

    I also bought a really good set of racheting tie downs to hold things in place.

    I bought the OEM Toyota bed mat off of Amazon, a ratcheting cargo bar from Home Depot and a CargoLoc BedBungee from Amazon. For the sort of hauling I am doing from Home Depot, Costco, Lowe's, etc, this has met my needs. I may toss a set of ratchet straps in the back as well.

    You can go to tractor supply and get them to cut you a section of their 4' rubber mat. The store I went to had two different thicknesses. Take it home and measure/cut for your Cargo rings, wheel wells, etc. and you're good to go. I think I spent $30, works great.

    Don't any of you guys use Toyotas...built in... 2x6 slots...?? There 2 places where your can insert a 2x6 across the bed... 1 front and one near the rear... I use the rear one all the time....that 2x6 stays there all the time....It allows me to put a case of beer and other stuff in there without sliding ahead...

    I did not notice those slots either. There are two slots that will fit a six-inch wide plank. I wish I had figured this out before buying the ratcheting cargo bar. Now I have to measure to see how long of a plank is needed.

    I'm sure you'll find cargo bar a lot more useful since you can position it anywhere. There's only about 7" between the forward slot and the end of the bed at the cab end.

    Keeps your cargo from slidin' around all over the place in the bed.
