Buying a New Truck? Penda Reminds You to Protect the Bed With the Right Drop-In Bedliner

Thousands of Consumers Expected to Take Advantage of Special Spring 'Payback' Promo on World's Best Liner - Pendaliner(R) SR Skid Resistor(TM)

PORTAGE, Wis., April 15 -- One of the first accessories purchased by most new-truck owners is a drop-in bedliner, and consumers planning a truck purchase this spring can find special deals available on premium liners that provide maximum protection, cosmetic enhancement and durability.

As one example, from April 15 through May 31, 2004, truck accessories retailers across North America will offer consumers a $25 "comeback check" for choosing the world's best bed-protection product, the Pendaliner SR Skid Resistor. The check can be used toward any future purchase from the Penda retailer.

"Each spring tens of thousands of recent truck buyers and other consumers look for the best way to protect their vehicles," said Kristin Uttech, marketing director for Penda Corporation. "Our spring promotion helps these buyers ensure maximum truck protection at a price that makes sense. Plus, they'll have some extra money to spend on their next accessory purchase."

Featuring a virtually wear-proof skid-resistant texture, the Pendaliner SR Skid Resistor offers twice the skid resistance of other drop-ins. Manufactured from highly detailed, model-specific molds to ensure an ideal fit, the Skid Resistor also features an ultra-high-gloss, deep-black finish that's virtually impervious to sunlight-induced fading. Unlike expensive and ineffective spray- on liners, the Skid Resistor also provides exceptional protection against truck-bed impacts and abrasion.
