Your favorite bed liner?

So folks, before I shell out $400 for a new Line-X liner, I thought I'd get your decisive opinions on what your favorite bed liners are. Maybe you can help change my mind.


My favorite liner is the Line-X liners. I love their rugged abilities, but they only excell for work related use in my opinion. They aren't very practical for sleeping on or sitting on while camping. I don't know of an easy fix for that either besides a piece of plywood...


Your turn.

Line-x here!
I have had it for 2.5 yrs and no signs of wear.

If I had to do it all over - I would get the Line-x again.

As far as sleeping in the bed or sitting while camping... buy a $20 dollar air mattress.

My favorite one is the drop-in I got for free with my new 06. If I were buying one it would be the DualComp.

I got the dealer to install a vortex spray-in. No complaints here. Was pushing for the Line x but they were to busy and I wanted my truck asap. No regrets though.

My bedrug has been perfect as I have to haul lots of sensitive tools and equipment around! Love it!

I have had both the Bedrug and the Linex. The Linex was in my 2002 F150 and I thought it was a great product. Extremely durable and it definitely protects from scratches in the bed. Of course, to apply the spray-on liner, the truck bed has to be scuffed and the liner is then permanent.

I decided to try the bedrug on my 2005 after reading so many positive reviews on here. It is a great product and also protects the bed from scratches. It probably works better at protecting the truck bed as it has a layer of foam padding on the bottom. I don't have a bed cover or a topper and my bedrug is exposed to the weather at all times since my truck is not garaged. It is in great shape and I think I would probably go that way again.

here's a question since we're on the topic:

don't drop in liners run the risk of moisture being trapped between the bed and the liner? that's a BIG turn off for me. my dad has an OEM liner, but i'm trying to convince him to go spray in. he has no use for a rug.

I have a SuperLiner spray on liner and love it.
Yes, the drop-ins to tend to trap dirt and moisture between the liner and the bed and can cause rust to form. Spray on is definitely the way to go.
