Slippery bed on Tacoma

[Taco sport Dave]

Just got my 24' Tacoma sport about a month ago and love it. The only issue is that the bed is so slippery everything you put there slides all over the place. Is there any solution or accessory to stop the slid?

Absolutely, take a look at some of the Bed mats on Amazon, like the lasfit. I purchased a similar bed mat, and it's much better now, I could hardly move the sand bags I put in the bed for weight.

Bed mat is much more cheaper then the dealer added spray liner, total money grab, poly bed with a bed mat will last as long as you keep truck

I had the OEM bed mat in my last few Tacomas and it worked great at keeping things from sliding all over the place. I haven't looked at the 2024 bed mats yet, but will probably get one in the near future. My truck has the spray in liner, but it's still kind of slippery for some stuff. The other thing I liked about my bed mat was that it sat above the ridges in the bed, so with the tonneau cover, if water got in around the edges, it just ran under the mat. I can't comment on the aftermarket mats as I don't have any experience with those, but I'm sure there are some good ones out there.

Do not buy a bed liner from amazon. They are just plastic mats and are still very slippery. If you want something the works correctly get the OEM bed mat.

OEM mats I understand are quite difficult to get ( at least here in Canada) as the production facility burned down last year. Not sure if they’re even making them. I bought a. TripleAliners mat from Amazon and it works great. Very slip resistant and reasonably priced. I am very happy with mine. Just my two cents!

I got my OEM bed mat from Fred Anderson Toyota during a Memorial Day sale....$110 shipped to the Midwest. Might check them for Christmas sales. Note, you must put the item in your cart to see the actual price. The mat is heavy rubber, lays nice and flat, and is not slippery at all. The part # PT90C-35240-02.

You have a couple solid options. OEM bed mat, aftermarket bed mat (from lasfit for example), oem or aftermarket bed liner spray, or a bed rug. All have pros and cons and vary in price.

I went with a full bed rug and absolutely love it. Not for everyone but it’s perfect for me. Plus if you plan to ever camp/sleep in this thing bed rugs have an R value of 4. Something to consider.

The OEM bed mat is great. It's not slippery at all.

When did you get yours? Been trying to get one (I’m in Canada) for five months, and ‘NOPE!’ Plant burned/tornado took it away/swept away in a flood/blah, blah, blah! Thinking maybe different suppliers for ‘you’ guys…?

Lasfit (& amazon clones) are not nearly as slippery as no mat but probably not as sticky OEM. I like the amazon one I have as it is seemingly middle of the road in friction & on the lower end of cost, but great fitment.

I got mine during Toyota's Memorial Day sale, which puts it around late May. It took a couple of weeks to come in but it was worth the wait.

I recently ordered the weathertech bed mat...hopefully will get it installed next Saturday, will let you know how it works out...
