If I fill the bed of my truck with concrete, will the Moss-Magnusun (sp?) Act prevent my dealer from voiding the warranty?

I can't resist any longer.

Y'all leave too much on the table with this thing.

Make yourself a 2X4 space in the middle before your monolithic pour, a cavity if you will. Make sure you put a couple of deadman loops through the bottom, and not only do you have an impressive ride smooting device, you can use it as a safe for yer guns while you drive.

The deadman loops? Simple, saves you having to build a chicken hole for those in Tornado county. Drop a couple of 3/8" cables to tie downs while it is parked at home, and you have instant shelter!

Man, Aggie engineers sure don't think as hard as Purdue grads....


I can't believe I finally got sucked into this thread...........

You know what would have been even better is putting radient heat in the slab. He could of just plumbed some of the coolant lines through the floor.

Just when I was starting to consider shutting down my concrete bedliner business for more lucrative opportunities, someone goes and opens up this thread again and...VOILA!! Just like that I'm BACK in business!!

I happen to be running a special this week on custom fit concrete bedliners and trunkliners. I'm also starting to branch into floormats. Check out my website if you're interested.

Jee Hoss your link don't work, with that kinda customer service I don't know how your company will survive. Allthough offering such a great product like yours I don't know how it could fail either.

I like the thread its kinda like Ole Fooler on the original Rounders movie with Glenn Ford and Henry Fonda.

Just when you think its dead he kicks the doors off of the barn and here he comes again.

It just wont die.

Hoss has a good idea, and I thought I'd go one better by doing it RIGHT. I dug footers in my bed so I can build a cabin on the slab when my economic stimulus check comes in.
