Just to be done with it and I don't think it's that much of a difference in cost.
Factory bedlining?
Are you doing the factory bedlined option or line-x or something else

Hadn't really thought about it. Whichever is cheapest as long as it is still good quality. Doesn't seem like that big of a decision to me.
I want to do my own research and weigh out my options on what would be best, going to decide after i take delivery of the truck
Line X. I found those plastic slip in liners will trap moisture and rot the bed from underneath and out. by the time you notice its too late...
dont like drop in liners. like said above, they trap moisture and rot the bed.
aftermarket spray on works but you have to get a good installer.. proper prep and quality materials/product
factory liners are usually thing but they seem to hold up well for most people
this is discussed on every truck forum and it seems like a 50 50 split between line x vs factory.
me theory is that both of them work and both of them dont work
it really depends on what you are using the bed for
If you are using it hardcore heavy duty i don't think anything will last and you have to expect to respray it when it get damaged.. its a liner afteralll and you cant expect it to be invincible.

trapping moisture and rusting the bed will suck especially as you remove the cover and see the horror. Bed liners all the way!
I've gone with LineX in the past and have nothing but good things to say about them. I really like how its a courser coating than slippery plastic drop ins.
LineX can be just as bad as drop in if the installer doesnt prep the bed properly and it doesnt adhere properly.
good point.LineX can be just as bad as drop in if the installer doesnt prep the bed properly and it doesnt adhere properly.
it pays to go with someone who knows what their doing, go with the guy who does it for dealers
