Do our trucks have drain plugs at the front of the pickup bed just behind the cab? My truck came with the factory bedliner and I'm too lazy to remove the liner to check, and I haven't ever looked at a CTD without a bed liner installed to find out.

Just wondering, because I installed a roll-top tonneau cover and the instructions say to run the water drain tubes through the drain plugs in the bed, or drill drain plug holes. I don't want to drill holes in the bed, but if the holes are already there, then I'll use them. Right now I just have the tubes running to the tailgate and draining out the back.

There are drain vents.They are not round holes.Three of them.Each end and middle.Elongated slots right up on the bed wall.

Quick, get rid of the POS bed liner and have the bed LINE-X'd.
Trust me, you are better off w/o the POS plastic in the bed, hell sell it on E-Bay to some poor sole that swears by them. It will cause yo nothing but trouble if you keep it

Well now there not that bad.I don't have one in this truck(just a bedmat)but I have had trucks and do now(1998 1500 SLT)with bed liner and never had rust or any bad rubbed spots etc.Personaly I thought spraying a bed(Line X ) was a waste of money unless real hard usuage.I have had bedmats(about $50.00) with rail cap protectors in several trucks and been perfectly happy.

The factory bedline does NOT have any holes in it to drain the water. It will fill up with water until you start driving and then the water runs out the back. For me, that is a pain and plan on replacing the bedline with a sprayed in Line-X (under the rail). The main reason why people do not like the bedliner is that you really can't see what is going on underneath it. It may be rubbing somewhere causing the paint to wear and then rust will start up. This may not happen for 1 month or possibly 10 years. But even so, there is a chance of rust starting without you seeing it.
