truck got a brand new line-x sprayed in

well my truck went to the ford dealership in town for some damage it received when someone backed into me in a parking lot and for some damage i caused when a strap i was pulling someone out with snapped and hit my tailgate and taillight. Insurance covered everything, but when they pulled my bed off to fix it they tore up the bedliner that had been sprayed in the truck back in 2001 when the truck was first purchased, it was a rhino. The dealership called me and said that since they had messed it up they were going to replace the entire liner for free. So I went on up there and sure enough they were stripping the entire bed of the old bedliner and the next day a fresh coat of black Line-X bedliner was sprayed in. With the bodywork done and the new bedliner my truck looks brand new again. The dealership even waxed and buffed the entire truck and detailed it inside and out. I will try to get some pics up asap

what happend to your truck? and who were you dealing with? i dealt with Howard and he was awesome...but that might have a little bit to do with me being a manager over at Big Buck Sports and him coming in there a lot...when he was estimating the damage to my truck we got to talking about the store and hunting and a bunch of stuff like that. He even told me to bring my truck back up there in a week or two and so he can pull one of my front tow hooks back down from where it got bent from something...no charge and it had nothing to do with the damage he repaired on the truck

i had a factory defect on the driver side doors and then i backed into my dog pen that was hanging over the end of my trailer. put a lil dent and deep scratch on the back right corner. the door looks great, but the back corner they didnt even try to blend the paint. i was even told by the tall guy up there that i have the easiest paint to blend. well it didnt work this time. i am going back up there today so they can see it if the rain moves out so the sun can come out. so you work at big buck...i know louis pretty well. my mom and his wife use to play tennis alot and i know david doleac up there also. how has gander mnt hurt yall if any. i dont like it. it looks like an oversized walmart hunting section to me. well i will let you know the outcome when i get back.......

gander mnt has really killed the walk-in business from 11:00am to 3:00pm...but customers are still coming in for our prices...all our big ticket items (tree stands, guns, bows, reels, rods, etc) are on average about $50.00 less than the same item over at Gander Mtn. And as of Sunday October 14, Gander Mtn has been so slow you could hear crickets chirping in the cages in their bait shop...haha... we opened our new SecondWind Outdoors Liquidation Store in the old albertons building in the Cloverleaf mall. Its all the stock we purchased from the Ferris Bros Distributing Fire. We have completely FILLED the old albertsons with tons of items backstocked to the ceiling in the storage areas. Our average traffic since Monday has been about 4000 people a day, the lowest amount all week was 3427 and the largest amount was 4689. We are expecting over 5500 on Saturday, it will be our first Saturday open. Im running the floor management over at that store at the moment and wont be back at big bucks until week after next. All of the items are marked at the same prices we sell them for at Big Bucks but then a 40% discount is taken on the total purchase at the register which makes for some great deals. You should definitely come check it out if you hunt or fish. I think our average purchase amount per customer right now is around $650. Gander Mtn is pretty pissed from what I hear. And we are going to be open until we sell everything off.
