Not sure what brand of truck you are looking to buy but I opted for the Chevy factory spray in bed liner option and am happy with it so far. I do not know how it compares to Rhino or LineX for durability. My previous truck I had ArmaCoatings bed liner applied and it was great. I don't know if they still do, but at that time, they had a lifetime warranty for original owner.

 

I've had both. Rhino lining was worse in my old Toyota truck. It's softer and cuts easier. I have had Line-x in my last two trucks (Tacoma and Tundra). Line-x in Clackamas did my Tundra. It's 10 years old and still holding strong. Line-x all the way.

 

Don’t watch them take 36 grit and scuff up the new truck .😳😂.

Go check their work out at the establishments .Look at the colors to match and different textures etc.

 

Will you be putting a canopy on your new truck?

If so, check out BedRug. I put it in my 14 Tundra and absolutely love it. No more crawling around on your knees on the bed ridges. Very durable, fairly comfortable to sleep on with a pad. Mine has held up very well. I do a fair amount of truck camping/fishing and I sleep in the bed of my truck on those excursions. Very glad I went this direction. Cost was about the same as spry in liners.

 

With my leaky, glorified SnugTop canopy, if I opted for BedRug I'd have a nice, mobile mushroom farm by now.
It looks like a nice product if you can keep it dry.

 

No canopy, been there done that.

 

I’ve had both and Line X is smoother so stuff slides easier. Durability seemed about equal

 

Hace a 2019 GMC with factory liner. Sucks. Breaks, chips, etc. my 2004 had LineX. Great stuff. Some slide, but not like unlined bed.

 

I've had both...plus X-treme Coatings Liner

Rhino Liner was more rubbery feel and seemed to chip easier, but was way easier on exposed skin.

Line-X was more hard feeling and more durable, but very rough on any exposed skin!

X-Treme Coatings Liner is a good combo of both!

I'd go with the X-Treme Coatings Liner, but that's just my personal preference.

Nearly 300,000 mi and 20 years of wood and gear hauling in the Rhino Lined bed under a canopy of my Tundra. I noted the first chip in the liner this week. It was difficult to slide things in (easier the last 5-7 years), but I appreciated that as it kept items in place - no water jugs sliding around, no coolers to crawl in to get which slid to the front. All this said, I'm contemplating the same thing for when I pick up a new Tundra next spring. I see that the place where I'll get a canopy, who applied the Rhino Lining in this rig, is now using Bed Max. Can't find much info about that brand, so unsure what I'll do. Interested in all thoughts here...

 

Line X is smoother so stuff slides easier.

 

Put linex in 2009 silverado 14yrs No complaints

 

Linex without a doubt. Had it in multiple trucks. Most recent is a 1995 Ford F350. Local Linex shop told me the bed needed to be sandblasted for a proper bond. He said the other shops will just spray over without blasting and it usually fails. Had the bed and nerf steps blasted and Linexed about 6 years back. Camper, gravel and bark. Still perfect.

 

Put Line-X in my truck bed maybe 5 years ago. Hauled rock and gravel, dug it out by shovel, not problems. It does show a few scratches - duh - but no chips. If I'm hauling something I don't want sliding around, I strap it down.

 

Thanks guys, Line X is getting sprayed in Tuesday along with Amp powersteps and bushwacker fender flares.

Who did you use to spray in your Line-X?

 

I've had Line-X in my last two trucks. My 02 Chevy that I had for 18 years and the F150 I have now since 2020. Never tried Rhino, but I hear it is hard to slide things into the truck.
