Line X over Rhino Liner any day hands down.. I have Rhino in my 2000 F-150 and its faded and places have peeled, also stuff still slides around in bed. Line X in 2014 model way better, no fading , very strong ,and items seem to stay put better without sliding around . my next ruck will most definitely get Line X

So your brand new liner hasn't faded compared to a 15 year old one and that makes it better? Hmm. What I spend my money on is always better too.

you can keep your sarcasm to your self .. I gave my opinion just like everyone else ,you can waste/spend your money however you want .. for your info the crappy rhino faded within a year or so and the line x is not brand new thank you .. I was stating my opinion and experience with rhino ,and I have friends and family that have Line X just as long or longer than my 15 y/o and the Line X looks better and better shape than mine . so you have a great day !!

To me, it not who you buy but who applies it. I had a rhino that peeled out entirely on day two. And I had a line x that faded and lost its texture after one year, so bad that a dealership accused me of doing it myself. So be careful, not only check their recent work but their old work as well. 90% is prep work. 10% is product and placement in my opinion. done in Houston area.....

I'm going to respectfully disagree. I think it's just as important WHAT you buy as well as WHO applies it.

A person might be really talented at painting and they may apply a perfect coating of Krylon spray paint as a paint job on your truck. But, in a year, that Krylon paint is NOT going to look very good. I would never allow a Krylon spray paint job for my truck no matter who applies it.

I bet the bedliner companies change their formulas and products over the years and some products may have been very good and some may have been very bad. Today though, I think LINE-X has the others beat based on the strength and UV protection. Tomorrow, however, some other company may come out with something even better!

[QUOTE=bigmike0091;4330602]I apologize if I offended, wasn't my intent. And my day got better after I read your reply. Made me laugh. I'm just not as sensitive about these things and take them more lightly. I'm one of those who wasted his money on a Rhino. Been installed since May and so far, it's still attached and still black. I did have to pressure wash it out Saturday with no issues. Lighten up Alice no need to get butt hurt over something like this. We are on the same side here. Anyway, thanks for wishing me a great day. I hope yours is great too. I'm going to the garage now to check up on my bed liner. Hehehe. Sorry. Couldn't resist. Have a good one...

That's actually not mine. But mine looks exactly the same. I can grab a pic tomorrow night if you want.

From what they told me the Pro/Premium should look/feel the same. Additional chemical in the spray for UV protection. I personally have a lo-pro cover on mine, so the linex is 100% covered.

Around STL linex runs
Pro Shortbed Under the rail $499 Longbed + $100 Over + $50
Premium Shortbed Under the rail $649(or $699) Longbed + $100 Over + $50
Color + $345
I really think the red/blue trucks with the matching spray liner look stoopid crazy sharp!!

If anyone is near STL I highly recommend the Arnold linex vs the Crestwood one. Arnold has done 2 for me, and Crestwood 1. Same truck, had to get bed replaced. The Crestwood quality just wasn't as good. It was over the rail, and the lines weren't as straight along the fender. I can't speak for the St Chuck place.

As for quality, etc. Swing by any shop and look at a unit they are pushing out that day. Look at the lines around the tailgate / rear stake pocket. Look at the lines along the bed front (maybe play dog and stick your head out the rear window (if there is one)

Good information, Good thread!

Wanted to go with linex but there wasn't a shop near me so went with rhino liner and gotta say it looks great. Yeah, it has more texture than linex, but thats just an aesthetic preference.

Sounds like theres a few shoddy rhino shops out there that do crappy work and ruin it for everyone else.

Whats a tailgate assist hole for?

Anyone use that rhino restore stuff they sell?
