whats your application, show truck, farm truck, general hauler?

Line-x does well all around. For shear abuse, wooden bed liners are pretty tough

Another option: if you are not going to use it to haul things a matching coat of paint.
If you plan to use and abuse I would vote a spray in color matched if possible.

If you can do it yourself, we get a substantial club discount from Al's Liners. Their product is a lot like Line-X and the others. Tell Dana you're a Slick 60's member and save a couple of hundred bucks. Colors too.

I'm not arguing with you. I'm just explaining why I'm right.

Use the bedliner stuff from SPI. Cheap and easy durable. That would be my vote but it is not an option :D

Spray in bedliner, but just line up partway up the walls, so the paint color shows at the top. Looks nice, and you still get a tough, durable finish with rustproofing to boot. 8)
