Really??? Can we get back to the fab here. Sounds like a bunch of little old ladys bickering back and forth. Too each there own.

Soft rubber mat cut to fit and its time for bed.

My bumper is flat also. My advice, its nice to sit **** on when working on the jeep. Clear it off when done, I try not to sit tools and what not on it anymore. So far from what I can recall ive drove off and lost two or three packs of smokes, countless lighters, couple nice wrenches and a nice paddle holster. Probably other ****.

i got truck bedliner on it, i have driven miles (sometimes 60 miles at 65mph) and still had a wrench and some old wire crimps on there that didnt even move. but it work great as a work bench, came in handy when doing the head gasket. i also put in 2 bars so that i can mount a winch when i get one
