Go naked. It's a truck and a bed is made to get all scratched up and look manly.
Everyone is so **** about how a truck bed looks like when no one can see it unless they look in it.
BTW, no evidence of any rust after 3 years of nakedness.
I'm a contractor and I keep the outside of the truck looking nice and interior looking nice. The materials that go in the bed dont care what it looks like.
Then again......if you are leasing or going to dump the truck in a few years and get the latest and greatest get a factory drop in with a bed mat. IMO.

I loved mine in my old truck. It will hold some water but will dry out after the sun hits it for awhile. It can be a pain to clean out if you have mulch or leaves that might stick to the carpet. I would buy one again, and might on my new truck.

Personally I would get a spray in liner. I had line-x in my past two trucks and it was awesome. I had it for 5 years in my last truck and when I sold it, it still looked brand new. I have the factory bed liner in my 2013 f-150 and haven't really done any hauling yet but it passes the look test we'll see after putting it to work but regardless I would get a spray in liner if I were you

I have the Bedtred and love it, It's made by the same people that make the bedrug. Looks and feels like it's a spray in but can easily be removed if needed, it also has a padded back that does not screw up the bed finish like a drop in plastic or having the spray in as the prep work to make it stick requires sanding the paint down. No it does not move around thanks to the Velcro attaching strips and is also impervious.
It is also less expensive compared to a spray in.

Hmmm...that looks pretty good, best of both worlds.
