Rhino Liner feels almost like rubber while Line-X feels much harder.

The way I understand it, Rhinoliners are sprayed on low pressure/low temperature, and when they cure (approx 24 hours later) they take on a rubberized texture. That's what my Permatech feels like. Line-X, on the other hand, is applied high temperature/high pressure and cures in a few minutes. It has a sandpaper-like texture to it and it hard when it dries.

Had my Line X for about 8 or 9 months now and couldn't be happier. And I only paid $300 with a military discount, best $300 I've spent on the truck yet. I hauled literally thousands of pounds of rock during my landscaping project, everything from 3/4 gravel, to 3 inch river rock, to boulders. All (except the boulders) shoveld in and shoveled out. Still looks brand new.

You could but then you wouldn't see the other color under the black.

Oh ok, I know what you meant but couldn't resist, yes you can get other colors.

Thank you so much for those excellent close-up pics. Now I have a pretty good idea how it'll look when i get it put in my truck. Looks great

Looks awesome.

That was the very first thing my truck had done to it. It was delivered to the dealer, they sent it out to get sprayed and then i showed up to pick it up and get it detailed.
After a year of heavy use, it still looks as good as the day it was installed.
Later Trev

Drop in bed liners don't prevent damage from tossed in bricks, cinder blocks, pipes, etc... Just look at my brother-in-laws Dodge. Now he has no other choice but to go with another drop in. He bought the liner and had it installed the day that he bought his Ram new in 2001 and now it is showing signs of rust especially around the bed bolts and the front corners near the cab.

I was able to get my Line-x done for $378.88 out the door (mulit-vehicle discount). Plus a lifetime warranty that is honored by all Line-x dealers nationwide.



And contrary to popular belief, they don't have to remove all the paint down to the bare metal. They simply scuff the clear-coat which allows the liner to form a molecular bond to the surface.

This is what I decided to go with. I am still thinking about doing the bedrug, but I wanted to get something in the truck to protect the bed floor. The mat is a thick rubber and it keeps items in the bed from sliding around. For the price, it is a pretty good piece of protection.

I waited while they sprayed mine in. It only took 40 minutes from the time I walked in the door to the time I walked out. I don't think the walls in the waiting room were insulated because I could hear everything going on in the shop. I saw them pull my truck around and then heard the impact guns. I thougt to myself, "Well there go the bed bolts." Then I heard the grinders and I thought to myself, "Oh #$%!, they're doing that to MY truck." I'm very pleased with the outcome, but it is just kind of disconcerting to hear somebody going at your 2 week old truck with a grinder.
