Do you happen to know if the Line-X dealer on Brice Rd. is the only one in town? I'm on the west side of Columbus.

Thanks again.

PS - nice Cobra!
Can't say if there is any other Line X shops in town. I think that Zeibart does the rhino lining, there might be one closer for you. I saw the line X place driving out there one day (after I got the drop in liner of course).

Thanks for the compliment on my Cobra

I really like my LINE-X

The LINE-X spray-in bedliner in my '04 STX is the 4th one I've had with absolutely no problems.

Just about anything black is going to oxidize over a period of time if not protected from the UV's.

The LINE-X in my new '04 is about 1/4" thick on the floor and 3/16" thick on the sides. Anything heavy enough dropped in a bed with spray-in or other types of liners will cause dents.

The insert type bedliners will ware the paint off in a period of time and cause some rusting.

I had the Line-X in my new truck sprayed in mainly for looks but if I need to use it, the LINE-X will perform well. The A.R.E. tonneau cover will keep the sun off of it.

The Bedrug's are incredible. If you haven't seen one in person, check it out. All the Lightning guys use them. Comfort (padded underneath) and resistant to everything.

Obviously depends mostly on how you will use your truck. Mine always have a shell on them and nothing more than a Rubbermaid floor liner. That has always been all I needed. They do haul some pretty good loads and the inside gets a little dented and scratched, but the loading floor is all I've ever worried much about. Never seen any rust. With all of this debate, I wonder if Nissan isn't really onto something with their factory sprayed-in liners on the new Titan? Seems like a good idea. You don't have to deal with scruffing up the original paint first and I would bet there's a good primer under it. Don't want to get flamed here, just seems like competition is always a good thing. I think this is something Ford should offer and maybe they will soon.

I put some strips of rubber roofing in under my bedliner when I installed it. I'll take it out and give the bed a good cleaning in the spring and see if the rubber helped prevent the paint wear I've had with my last truck.
