I went with the Weathertech bed mat and tailgate mat combo. My ‘21 STX didn’t have anything in the bed or on the gate so I wanted to cover both since I and sliding gear and totes over them several times a day every day.

It is very sticky, takes a lot of inertia for something to slide around back there. I like that the bed mat comes up the sides a few inches too rather than just stopping right at the edge. Did’t love the price but it’s nearly worth it for my use.

I went with a dualliner bed liner with the rubber bed mat and it works pretty good for me.

The issue I've been having with the WeatherTech stuff, especially where they "angle" at the sides is they start to curl and fold. Had this issue with both sets of their floor liners on my 13 Raptor and 13 Flex. Ended up switching to Husky.

The thing I don't like about those plastic liners is they like to trap stuff underneath them, but they do a good job of keeping the bed from getting dented.

Anyone have the Ford OEM "Bed Tray" bed mat? The description says "Raised, surrounding edge is designed to contain spills." It's $20 more than the standard Ford bed mat.

It has a rubber mat for the floor and separate pieces that go together on the sides

Depending on the bed length of your truck the best deal by far is the horse stall mats sold by Tractor Supply. Their 3/4 inch thick 4x6 foot mat sells for $58.99 and is very heavy duty. It is tougher than any truck mat sold today although it is also heavier at 94 lbs. and why I continue to use the Dee Zee mat I bought in 2011 for $70 and have moved to each new truck and even used in an SUV for several years.

Amazon's price has doubled and so I would go with Tractor Supply if buying a new one or something from anyone else. All I need is a 4 ft wide rubber mat that is 3/8 inch thick. With my "Chevy" truck mat I cut off the corners as I need no mat in the areas in front of or behind the whee wells and with no corners it is much easier to remove the mat for a full cleaning of the bed and to put if back in again.

Do any of these work with a spray in bedliner? Found out the hard way that Line X doesn’t really hold up to a falling tool.

Mine works great with the spray in bedliner.

I use my mat with both my current truck with the spray in liner and with my SUV that was carpeted and with my prior truck that had a drop-in bed liner. The drop-in was terrible and I only had it put in because the dealer did it at no cost to me.
