Thank you for the informative video! Which would you recommend/prefer for hauling a motorcycle? Had been considering just a mat, but then heard you mention the possibility of the mat shifting

Hi Chris, thanks for watching and your comments. I have hauled dirt bikes in the back of my personal truck for over a decade using a rubber bed mat and have never had an issue with it slipping. A bonus is when the bed is either wet or the dirt bike tires were muddy that the rubber bet mat kept the bed from being slippery when loading the bike back up at the end of the day. Hope this helps!
