Where do I find “truck floss” to get out all the cedar droppings and other crap that has accumulated in that gap between the cab and truck bed?! My regular hose on the “jet” setting doesn’t seem to cut it. Any tips?

Additionally, the “felt” (or whatever fuzzy fabric it is they’ve adhered in that gap) seems to have some moss or algae… curious as to what anyone might recommend to clean and curb that growth.

I haven't really thought about it but a pool noodle would prolly fit. Dunno what exactly you're dealing with but fishing line would floss it, guess you could blow it off the pack with a shop vac. Haven't done any of this myself, just speculating.

Must be a regional thing, I've never heard of doing that. Show truck I probably would but no one sees back there any way. I use auto washes and whatever sprays down during that is good enough for me.

Oh yeah, very regional, and doesn’t help that I have several large cedar trees around my driveway! 😂

Here’s a view of what I’m describing…

I don’t think fishing line would work, that’s too slick. Maybe some sisal / hemp rope to LITERALLY floss down there? lol

Yeah those green things tend to turn brown and fall off. Yikes I see your predicament.
