    I haven’t seen a new truck without a bed liner in decades. I apparently thought they were standard equipment.

    If you need one, you need one, but I’m confident that a tiny percentage of these things are used for actual work. Also: still ugly. Sorry.

      Yeah, not standard. And I guess if they’re that common where you are then check the wear of the liner. Like another commenter said, they get fucked up pretty quickly. It’s easy to tell if a truck is vanity or not just by looking at the bed. I’ve called people out for driving them. It’s especially humiliating for the guys because I’m a woman.

      I also appreciate that you’re confident in your assessment without actually talking to any of those people. Assuming just makes an ass out of u and me.

        As someone who lives in Texas and every other vehicle in the road is an oversized pickup, fuck em.

        They drive worse faster the douchy chargers/mustangs and somehow manage to use their blinker less often than a BMW driver.
