ABSTRACT:
The invention disclosed herein is a ribbed vehicle cargo bed, including a vehicle cargo bed liner, which contains a means for stabilizing an object during transport. The stabilizing means is created by a reduced floor rib height in an area shaped to hold a cargo object. The area having reduced rib height is adjacently surrounded by a supporting ridge comprising a plurality of cross sectioned rib walls extending essentially perpendicularly from said floor. The supporting ridge provides a barrier which prevents a suitably shaped object situated atop the (recessed) area from sliding during transportation.
