Thanks!
Skip the cover,I had one on my last truck and it was a huge pain in the ***. I'd opt for a spray in bed liner also,you can do it yourself for less than half that price

If you didn't want to go through the trouble of doing the bed liner yourself I'd have the dealer do it. Don't waste your money on the $1000 for them to put a trifold tonneau cover on your truck, you could probably buy one online and put it on yourself for cheaper.

you'd be surprised at how much we actually pay for some of those things, a dealership will only get about $150 to $230 profit on those tonneau covers that are worth $1000

Great - thanks everyone. I'll go with the spray in bed liner but they want $600. The $225 bed liner is just rubber, not hard plastic. Should I do the spray in bed liner myself? I'm handy but have zero time for this stuff.

It will only cost you an afternoon and if they want $600 it'll save you like $500

I bought a 2014 crew cab with the ecoboost, does not come with the spray in bed liner. I'll youtube it and see what it involves. Anything else I should get for it? It will be just a daily driver but I always need to move something around. Thanks for your help everyone.
