Anybody else have the Bed Carpet Kit? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I bought this from a board member a number of years ago ... since then I have not seen this aftermarker option on any of our trucks. Are there any of you with this accessary?

yes I added carpet and oak strips. Got the idea from the SSR

Bedrugs are really nice. I've had them before, but don't currently have one.

I loved the BedRug in my new truck. I'm pretty sure they don't make them for the 67-72 anymore.

Things do not slide around on the carpet and if you need to climb in to get something it is very easy on the knees.

Scored a used one for my old sierra, loved that thing. Didn't know they ever made them for the c-10's

I have one in my SWB I bought off this site several years ago. I agree, they are great. This one fits perfect and makes things look nice and it is easy on the knees.

We might have purchased at the same time. The seller got these from and an old Ford Dealership that was going out of busness ... I might be wrong though.

I believe I also got a tonneau cover from him but it has been a while so I may have forgotten.

Wouldn't carpet in the bed retain water? I would think that would be a less than optimal item to have.

I would think a tonneau would be better.

I have both

Since it doesn’t retain water like rubber (it would dry out) it isn’t an issue but - my truck hasn't been in rain since she was restored.

I get plenty of compliments on the bed carpet. But a wood bed is cooler.
