New truck-bedliner and cover

[Kyle]

Just bought a new truck. I'm thinking of doing the Line-X on the bed. Anyone have a review on this product?

Also, I'm looking for a Tonneau cover. I'm aware of the truxedo brand, but am wondering if there are any good quality, less expensive options?

Thanks

When I bought my new F-150 three years ago, I had Line-X do the bed/tailgate. The guy that did it was meticulous, no issues with it. Can't seem to hurt it. BUT, don't crawl around on it on your knees, it sure ain't soft. It's pretty rough, which also means wiping it out with a rag/towel will get you a lot of "fuzzies" stuck to it. Other than that, just hose it out/blow dry. Seems bonded right to the truck, don't know how you could hurt it.

I looked at all the Tonneau covers, as my buddy owns a truck accessory shop. He recommended, and I also picked, the Access Lorado roll-up covers. My neighbor 3 doors down has the Truxedo, IMO the Access is just a lot heavier/better built. Have used them both; I like mine a lot better. Has the locking slide tab on it; not sure the Truxedo can be locked. Happy I went with the Access. Not one problem in three years. Good luck!

I have the LineX and the Access cover. I like them both and have not had any issues with either product but I only haul a six pack of root beer and a couple of fishing rods in the back. HaHa!! The tonneau cover does not keep all of the water out of the bed but it does a good job on most of it. I put most of my stuff in plastic totes and they don't seem to slid around. I am looking at putting a topper on the truck so I can go above the side of the bed with what ever I am carrying but then you are limited in being able to take the topper off without much problem.

My old Rangers had Truxedos which I always liked. My current truck got an Access cover last spring. I like the look of it much better, it seems more taught, and keeps my bed very dry. All covers should keep your bed completely dry if sized correctly for your truck and installed properly. My only negative about the Access cover is that I don't like the pull-down strap used to open it up - I preferred the flip lever on the Truxedo covers. However, I like the Access cover better overall.

If you're not really hung up on the Line-X, check out rhino liner. I REALLY liked it on my dodge. It seemed grippy enough but wasn't overly rough on skin or anything like that if you were up there on your knees. A bit more of a rubber-y feel to it I guess is how I'd describe it.

Had Line-X put on my 2004 Silverado a few months after buying the truck. Still looks fine!

I ended up going with a drop in bed liner, and the truxedo lo pro qt.

It's a truck bed. Go buy some ply wood cut it to fit then go buy a gun. Remember it's a truck bed.

Bed Rug. Has lasted many years soft on the knees, nothing slides. You can also take it with you if you change trucks.

I have Line X done in St. Cloud. It is great, well worth it. I did need to trim the rubber stops on my tail gate a little as the extra depth of the spray in caused some closing issues this Winter when the rubber stops were frozen solid.

Linex here as well...looks awesome. Arden hills.

Can you guys remember what you paid for your Line-X?

I had Line-X on my last two trucks and it is definitely a great product. I do have two small complaints on it however. As mentioned earier, it is definitely hard on the knees when crawling around back there. Your cargo also slides around in the bed as the Line-X doesn't have much grip.

I bought a 2014 GMC Sierra crew cab in January and put in a WeatherTech Techliner bed and tailgate liners. So far I have been very satisfied with it. It is custom fit to the bed of the truck and it has great grip and is easy to clean. Its removeable and costs about half of what Line-X costs.

Time will tell if I think it is a good substitute for a spray-in liner.
