I saw the picture of your pewter rhino-liner and I love it.  How does it match with the truck color where it is over the rails?  Should you be able to get that color at any Rhino-liner dealer?  How much extra did it cost to have it colored instead of black?  I am getting a pewter '02 2500 HD in about a month and want to get the same liner if possible.  Thanks.

The Rhino lining place in my town only offers the black.  The only other places around here that I know of, that offer the different colors, are the bigger cities.  ???

kennedycpa,

 

The Rhino dealer got the color code off of the door jam.  I am not sure what the code # is but it seems they are able to get any color you want.  They use a UV protectant in the spray to prevent sun fading.  I have not seen any change in color yet after 5 months outside.

 

The color matches the paint real nice and the over rail option cost a little more.  The color match is about $75.00 more.

 

The dealer that did mine is the only one I know of in Anchorage, so I could not tell you if they all do the color choice.  I would look at there work that they have done.  And see what you think of it.  This dealer did a great job.  Clean lines on the rail and through out the rest of the truck.  I also did not see any difference in the so called cottage cheese look in mine compared to a Line-X job up close.  

 

Finnal thoughts are, make sure the person doing the job is good at what they do.  If they are I am sure you will be happy with what you get.  I sure am.

only $75 for the color match!!! The rhino-lining place here in town charges $389 for black over the rails - the color match is an extra $200!!  Maybe I should call around, it might be worth a drive to get a better price.

    • Are you going to take long trips in it?  If so, try out the seats in the various trims. For me the lower trim level seats were not comfortable. 
    • I have a 2016 that I bought new and still own. I'm around 129,000 miles now. The biggest problem was a transmission failure about 2 years ago around 95000 miles. No warning, just failed while driving down a back road. A reman GM transmission installed and it's been fine ever since. A few other minor problems along the way. I am in no hurry to replace it. It's been paid off long ago and do plan on driving this as long as I can.   I will admit I am leery about all the additional electronics in the newer models and feel that it is just more potential problems. I think there's actually more than I would have wanted in this 2016 but so far so good. I think even if something major like lifter failure happened, it would still be cheaper to at worst, drop a new engine in than buy a new vehicle. 
    • I’ve own several successful businesses. I’ve bought homes and lived in different states. I’d witness several generations buy homes and survive in different economic circumstances. You get awful sippy when people have different experiences than you do. You live a life. I’ve lived a life. It seems our experience has been different. You can point out generalized statistics. Some people learn how to thrive when the odds are against them. Living in different states does make a difference in a persons quality of life and economic outcomes and opportunities. That’s a fact Jack. It’s my truth, my life. Hard work and long hours the right environment made my families life easier. And yes moving to a different state increased the odds of that happening. Stats are generalized. People who thrive don’t make excuses. They beat the odds. Others get mad and point to those statistics. I guess that’s you. My post pointed out how you helped people beat the odds. Somehow your panties got in a wad. Go figure. 
    • Good question, I don't remember for sure but I believe it was the HD. I will check and get back to you.
    • Point of the post sir was that while both wages and cost are rising EVERYWHERE; the cost is rising faster EVERYWHERE than the ability to buy EVERYWHERE. We're not going down the location rabbit hole. I'm aware of what economic migration is. I've lived in four states including Texas.   It's what "Purchasing Power" means.   I'm not telling you what I think.
