| If you have a topper, a bedrug ROCKS. It's not like boat carpet at all, more like the carpeting in the trunk of your car, but padded. Plus its molded to fit your truck model, so your tie downs are exposed and it fits neatly over the wheel wells. The nice thing about it is that it zips together, so if you do get it dirty you can take it out and clean it. The sides and the piece on the tailgate are held in by heavy duty velcro, which isn't as easy to get in and out, but the bottom part is what would likely get dirty anyway.
The backing on the bottom is a hard rubber, like tire rubber almost, but not quite as hard. So I wouldn't worry about it rubbing the paint off, rust underneath, etc. Mold? Hmm. Suppose that depends on what you're putting back there and how wet it is and how often you get it wet. Last time I looked, the paint underneath was just like the day the truck was new, though, and it's been in there maybe 5 years.
I wouldn't recommend it for a contractor, or anyone working with paint and solvents or anything like that, but for fishing it's great -- stuff slides in and out nicely, you don't have to worry about your rods. You really could sleep on it if you needed to. If I remember I'll post a picture.
