Default '05 Tacoma bed--strange sighting

While at a dealer, I glanced into the bed of a new Tacoma that had a rubber bed mat. For some reason I lifted the mat and noticed that the rubber nipple-like bumps on the underside of the mat had left impressions in the bedliner!

Weirdest thing-- had the bed not cured before the mat was put in? No, I hadn't smoked anything funny that morning...

What? How do you know it was the mat that made the impressions? The mat is formed to fit the beds grooves. Is that what you may have saw? The beds are made and cured long before they get put in the truck so thats not it.

Dude, people stop calling it a bed liner...

Argh, I don't want to sound offensive but ignorant remarks can start ignorant replies...

You can count mine as one of them but I'm sure glad this didn't turn out to be another SMC bashing thread LOL...

BTW, please take a pic if anything shows up weird still...

Thanks...

Hmm, did you feel the bed to make sure you didnt see some weird illusion? Ive had the mat on since the day i purchased it and the only marks I see are little dust ones made by those rubber nipples, no indentations of any kind.
