mine smells like cat **** after washing it.
it was a little dirty but not smelly, so I washed it..
..and that's what I get for washing it and putting it back in the truck while it was still damp/holding water, and it's enclosed in a topper....ugh
yeah that foam will hold water if yer standing on it while pressure washing it! doh! I even pulled it back out, chucked it in my garage for a few weeks and it was still holding some water!
guess I will try again and wait till it's totally dry beore putting it back in.
on a side note, mine was made in 05 for a 02 and up....well, they fit in these new truck just fine since the bed interior hasn't changed....even the tailgate pattern is identical.
It could be a change in the materials/manufacturing...
I'm not trying to be a smart ass, but do you or your neighbors have a cat?? [emoji75][emoji75]
I had a bedrug in my 2014 Laramie and it was uncovered (open to the elements, taken through the car wash, etc...) the entire time.
I installed it 3 days after buying the truck and it was in such great shape when I traded in the truck 2 yrs later that my neighbor was thrilled to take it off my hands...
In all that time there was no smell, no major damage (although I mostly hauled garbage, leaves and construction materials).
I just took delivery of a 2017 Big Horn and, in addition to a new bedrug, I have a hard cover so hopefully this isn't 'just what happens' when they are covered when wet and not able to fully air dry...
I'm curious if anyone else has had this issue.
