Spray on bed liner

[hovermn]

What should a guy expect to pay for a spray on bed liner? Just bought an '06 F150 6.5' box. Any recommendations for brands?

I tried searching the forum, but came up empty handed.

That just have the drop in liner? i know i saw something on it

Pat had the Line-X installed on his truck and it still looks good. and he said he paid 325 for it.

I thought I heard good things about lineX, but this being my first real truck, I hadn't really paid attention. $325 sounds pretty reasonable.

It has a drop in. What I don't like about it is how the portable, and everything else in there slides around while I drive. If I stop, I hear it hit the front, accel, and it hits the tail gate. Not fun, and not doing much good for the gear

I had a dakota with a Rhino Lining and I was very happy with it never had any problems much nicer than a plastic drop in liner IMO.

The last one i had was on a 2001 Ram 2500. It was put in by th dealership and i think it was line X or something. I had it go over the top rail and that saved a lot of paint scratching on the truck.

I also had a drop in and never liked that one. Some times it fluttered in the back, other times it scraped paint from moving it and most of all debris kept getting under it and molding.

Stick with a good brand of spray on for protection and cleanliness.

I think they charged me like $450 back in '01 from the dealership, so $325 seems like a deal to have someone else put it on.

I put Line-X in in '05 for $350 I think. I've hauled sleds with carbide scags, concrete debris, scrap metal and its never chipped, peeled, or gouged! Definitely recommend it. Also heard good things with Rhino.

i had a dakota with Line X, was great

Called LineX this afternoon. $499 to spray it. Earlier today, I asked the dealership if they would get me a quote from their guy. $500 is a little too rich for my blood at the moment. We'll see what they come up with. I probably should have worked that into the deal. Oh well, lesson learned...

I just have the thick rubber Ford mat in mine. Nothing slides on it, it's quiet and lots less money. Usually by the time I get rid of them the inside of the box doesn't look too bad. The floor seems to take the worst of it.

I would check out Herculiner. It's a do it your self Kit, but it is way better than those cheap walmart ones. I got mine for $80 a gallon and I was very happy with how it turned out.

I also I have a line X, and I gotta agree with everyone. If you can afford it do it, IMO it's well worth it.

I got my Line X sprayed over the rails 5 yrs ago when I got my truck. I don't recall the cost (under $500 I think), but it has been well worth it. I've had rock, firewood, cement blocks, dirt etc. back there and it has held up great.
