Review on Gladiator Cargo Nets - Durable RipProof Mesh Tarp - Medium Size - 6.75' x 8' (MMT-100) - Ultimate Cargo Protection by Alex Mitra

Pickup truck owners may need a small

I like the netting. It is of good quality and the straps are heavy. This is an excellent middle ground between cheap tarpaulin and awning. size problem. I ordered a medium size for my Ford Ranger as suggested in the product description for a 6ft pickup truck. Wednesday was too big. Although the product is designed with some overhang, the distance between the grommets in the center of the tarpaulin (as opposed to the edges) is too large. The spacing between the rack bags on my truck is approximately 55" x 65". When the straps are installed, the distance between the hooks is approximately 60" x 67". The average size is soft and relaxed. Without tension on the hooks, wind or impact could loosen them. I sent the medium one back and bought the small one. Although smaller than my preferred size, this is the best size for my truck. I would have preferred the edges to hang further to better cover items in bed. If you have a compact pickup with a 6 foot bed, you should check the spacing between the brackets before buying a mid-size pickup. I would give five stars if it was better for compact cars. In addition, the description should indicate the minimum installation distance, not just the overall size.
