I've been contemplating getting a liner for my Sierra. I was wonder what everyone's experiences were with the various products i.e. Rhino, LineX, TOFF, Herculiner etc. What is your preference?

 

Is the cost savings of doing it myself worth the headache?

 

Really interested in the Herculiner...I've heard lots of great things, but there has to be some down sides...any you find?

 

Thanks Always

First off, search, this subject has been been debated, argued about, and some people were even called some pretty offensive names over it in the past. :cheers: Personally, I like the texture of LineX the best (which is why the bottom half of my truck is sprayed with it).

Linex is by far the superior product in comparision to plastic/ or Rhino! Hercul??? I can say from having two Linex trucks it rocks and is super durable and long lasting!

There have been jillions of threads on this subject but everyones opinion is valued. Have had 4 pickups with the spray-in liners and they have all taken lots of abuse. The first was a Turbo Liner and it was tough but looked crude. The last 3 have been Line-X bedliners and have been more than satisfied with the Line-X as it is tough and also looked good. Probably a lot depends on the installer. I really like the texture and appearance of the Line-X. Have had the bed rails sprayed on the last 2 installations and that is something you might consider. :cheers:

Line-X is great looking, rugged and rough-surfaced. No after-spray - I've had two beds done (a ford and a gmc) and both were absolutely beautifully done... I guess some Line-X shops now offer matching colors now but I have a white gmc and had it done in black.

      The Peckish Synapse

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling.

      You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built.
