    I was looking for this about a week ago, didn’t find anything & moved on. I was going to keep it until I saw your comment- thanks for the replies, looks so much better!

    Does that bed mat clip in any way or just lay in the bed, any chance it would fly out?

    Nope. Just lays flat in the bed. It’s a snug fit so any chance of it moving is non existent, also the way the air comes over the top of the cab actually pushes down on the matt as aposed to lift it up... the matt probably weighs ~10lbs on its own

    Hope this helps

    I got mine at the dealership. I looked at every option under the sun and finally buckled at the dealership. I think it was $120.

    Damn thing is solid and well made. Weighs 20-30 lbs or more if I remember correctly. It is solid and NOT foamy. Weatertech seemed foamy and not as dense.

    I like the fact that it's rubbery like a car tire. Good non-skid surface.

    If you buy it at the dealership you bought your truck from they should give 10% off. That's the deal at my dealership...not sure if everyone else does this.

    Not neccessarily cheap but keep an eye out on whatever used/classifieds in your area. I've picked up a few good deals on OEM accessories like a bed extender, bed divider, roof racks, skid plates, tonneau covers.
    And you might get lucky and spot some other deals too before anyone else snatches them up.

    ShiftSense Pro for 3.5L automatic to eliminate constant gear searching and give truck a solid feel on the road.

    And lots of D rings along the side and bottom of the cargo area.

    Thanks for mentioning the ShiftSense Pro. I had not heard of this until now and it definitely sparks my interest and isn't priced very high at all. Whats the application like? How does it hook up? I bought the Pedal Commander which is a throttle response module for my 3rd Gen Tacoma and it's AMAZING. Wouldnt mind adding this Shift pro to go along with it.

    UPDATE: Found install and application! Pretty awesome. Thanks again.
