Depends on when you drive and how you store. Personally I would go with something to slow down the sun damage, like Waterlox Marine/Outdoor finish, or if it matches the aesthetic of your truck, just let nature do its thing and allow it to go grey while you oil/beeswax.

The one benefit to just using oil is that it does need re-application, but when you do, you can easily just wipe it on the bed and be on your way every 6 months, vs. removing the wood, sanding, resealing, and reinstalling every few years.
