Agree to disagree then, but in the past decade I've never read of a single person say their tiedowns have come loose, and youre the 1st one I've seen slit the bedrug rather than bolt the tie downs back on top. I've used mine alllll the time and again never come loose. Even the logic behind it, the tie downs don't thread in freely the entire way down, they require torque just to drive them in from an interference fit on the threads, you can leave the bolts untorqued and the tiedown wiggling and they still won't come looser than where you left them. And bolting it ontop of the bedrug is 1 step further keeping a theif from just yanking the bedrug out. Seen several instances of that over the years, even with guys with tonneaus. Come out one day and their bedcover and bedrug missing thanks to the quick release systems on covers and the velcro on the bedrugs and the tie downs not bolted on top.
