i have been looking for some time for something rugged to cover my floorboards with i dont like carpet, i am an outdoorsman and its a pain to clean mud out of anyway i got to thinking, and realized that i have an old rubber bed mat in the back yard and i have thought about cutting it up to go in my truck and when it got muddy i could put a drop cloth on the seat and hose it out, what do yall think of my idea and what could i fasten it with.

thats a pretty good idea. Have you ever see bed liner in a can? it works really well. Oh and I mean in a spray bomb type can. I use it on my floors on the inside and out. Works good as an undercoating, or sound deadner, works great on the tops of the floor too.
