Cutting bed mat

Hi all, I just traded in my 2016 Tacoma on a 2021. The 16 was a long bed, the new Tacoma is a short bed. I kept the bed mat from the long bed. Any recommendations on what to use to cut the mat?

 

IMO you could try to trade it on here once you hit 50 posts for a SB

 

A 2x4 on the ground, a 2x4 as a straight edge on top of the mat. Kneel on the top 2x4 and cut with a stanley utility knife with a sharp blade.

 

Where are you from?

 

I'm guessing Rhode Island or Florida.

 

Rhode Island and Florida. Currently in RI until after Christmas then driving to RI

 

They are miserable to cut, just sell it.

 

I do not think a utility knife would cut through the bed mat. It’s not OEM, I bought from autozone

 

Ahhh missed that. Can always look here for the NE region, you need 50 posts to actually sell or trade but you can buy one.

My best advice would be to find a short bed one. Curious though if you can measure the long one b/c I have a long bed...might be interested.

 

If it's a rubber type material, it can be cut, just might take a few passes.

 

My long bed is a 2010 but if it's the same size, send me a pic..might be up for a purchase

 

I will measure in the am

 

I cut the oem rubber mat around floor hooks I installed with a dewalt utility knife. No problem. Just patience.
Is this one different?

 

Sounds great, I'm in MA but no hurry on getting the deal done if we have a match

 

I think you can cut it with a jig saw. I've been using the stall mats you get from Tractor supply as bed mats. They are 3/4 thick and I've cut them with a jig saw as well.

 

that sounds interesting. I bought a few feet of a 3/8 or 1/2 inch mat at tractor supply. Cutting it to put under a pool pump and keep my camper tires off the cement was a job with a utility knife. I will try that. I was also going to try a skill saw panel blade on backwards but I know that will smoke up a storm. Thank you

 

LMK if you're interested in a sale @RI-FL

 

I think I am going to keep it and take my time to cut it to fit. I was looking at the oem liners. This is much heavier and durable.

 

Just use a new blade with each pass.

 

My 06 was an AC, my 15 was a DC. I cut mine with a utility knife. Fit perfectly. I’m actually going to post it for sale as it’s sitting in the garage.
