Default Bedliner

Ok I have never put a bed liner on before i was wondering should i take it to a shop and have them do it or do it myself? And if I do it what brand would you guys prefer and how hard is it to do?

Well...what kind are you wanting? The spray, or roll on. The roll on is a very easy way to do it, if the prep work is done right. The Herculiner brand makes a variety of products that do a good job

Like Gator said, I would recommend a drop-in. A gen-u-ine Ford one. I had mine put in by the dealer cuz I was having some other stuff done at the same time but it looks like it could be put in yourself with no problem. I would avoid spraying or rolling your bed. They look good for a short while but then, once you've used your bed for hauling anything, it will look like absolute crap. All scuffed and faded and even peeling. My opinion is stick with the factory liner. It handles wear well and can be replaced easily if needed.
