Hi everyone,

We're new to camping with a Lance. We upgraded from a small Shadow Cruiser to a 2006 1181 LanceMax. I was wondering if it was better to leave the bedliner in or out when loading? Does it make a big difference in camper fit with it out?

Thanks!

If it is one of those plastic drop ins, you might want to get a thick rubber mat for the camper to sit on to keep it from sliding around. I don't think you need to remove it.

I would take the bedliner out and put a rubber mat on the bed.Them plastic liners are very slippery no matter what you put on them.The ideal thing is a sprayed in liner and then a rubber mat on top of that.

I agree that this is the best way to go.

Rubber mat is the way to go. Something I remember from high school physics, called the coefficient of friction. Can't remember the formula but the lesson stuck. LOL
