Had Line-X on my last truck, and I'll have it on my new one. Tough as nails.

Another vote here for Line-X.....It's a "harder" material.
Plus, the Lifetime warranty is fantastic....Good 'round the country.

Rhino liner is somewhat rubber based and i have found that it will discolor and peal. Line X is much stronger and harder.

What does a Line-X liner cost? Ball park?

We're going with line-x on our long bed. Quoted price was $400 +, as I recall. Good information as we haven't gotten it done yet, but we were planning on the line-x. Thanks too for the info.

Was it very hard to do?

Was it very hard to do? everything comes in a kit. it is rolled on, not sprayed. i sanded my bed real quick, washed it then you roll it on. everything took about less than two hours. i was really impressed with the way it came out, especially for the price.

The heat may be the difference, but every Line-X liner I have ever seen in Arizona has peeled, newest, on was on bosses F-250 bought new two years ago and started peeling less than a year later. Buddy has a Rhino in a Nissan, that gets abused with a Six-Pack cab over camper, and hasn't even scratched it, and its two years old as well.

Line-X. It cost me $366.00 to have it done to my Ford Super Crew.
Guaranteed for life not to bubble, crack or flake for the lifetime of my truck. They had it in their shop for two hours.

Thanks for all the input! I got a price of $345 for the Chevy (short bed) and $375 for the Ford (long bed). I plan on doing the Snug Lid, but I also like the Line X idea... :D

buck183 is an installer, he should be able to provide an opinion from the other side of the fence.

I got tired of scraping up my swim step with wakeboard fins last year and decided to Line-X the damn thing.I've been very impressed at how it's held up. It's tough as nails and always looks good.
As a side note, a couple of months later I ran into one of the creators of the product at the lake. He was amazed that I had thought of using it for a ski boat swimstep. Now all of my fellow boarders have done the same.

As I stated earlier, there is no downside to Line X.
Lifetime warranty......If it peels, cracks, etc., take it back and they fix it for free.
Trust me, i read the warranty.
