Abstract
A cargo bed liner system for use in pickup trucks, four-wheel drive vehicles, light utility vehicles and the like, in which rigidified carpeting material made of needle-loomed staple fibers of polypropylene and polyester have been thermoformed to form a floor covering piece, a tail gate covering piece, and two side covering pieces, with flaps on the floor piece being folded upwards to cover the forward panel and any areas of the side panels which have not been covered by the side panel cover pieces. The system is affixed to the vehicle's cargo bed by means of several velcro-type fasteners.
