so i just had this random idea. since my carpet is kinda nasty in my truck would it work for me to tear it up and spray bed liner down instead of having carpet? is this a good idea? has anyone ever tried this?

 

Bed liners being used for lots of things now days. I saw a blazer that was painted with it. No worries about getting scratched on the trails that way lol.
I have a rubber mat. I like the mats, they get dirty, get a scrub brush soap and a hose

 

Bed lining the floor is alot more common than you might think. A lot of jeeps do it along with most offroad rigs. They know that dirt and mud is gonna get inside of the vehicle, and dont wanna mess with any dirty carpet, and would rather just wash it out with a hose. It wouldnt be hard to do, and its not a bad idea, if you dont mind the look of a black rubber looking coat of paint on the floor instead of carpet!

 

Maybe bedline it then put a rubber mat over top. I have mine out right now and it's fairly noisy and certain parts get pretty hot.

 

Just do rubber flooring. The cab looks goofy when you pull the carpet up.

 

A few disadvantages to bedliner. You loose the sound deadening and insulation of carpet and underliner.

 

bedline the floor to protect it, then lay down insulation and a rubber floor

 

X2 or try lizard skin.

 

thanks for the input guys. i probably wont do anything about it for now anyway it was just an idea

 

lizard skin for sure
