Howdy y'all. Been poking through this site for a few months. my 2000 just caught on fire (Cruise control recall never got recalled I guess.)

So I got a '06 a few days ago. The bed on my '00 was horrendous, so I thought I would spray a liner into my new one. Didn't think I'd need a second loan for it. I got quoted for $650 out the door (after $100 off) for a basic Rhino. 5.5' bed, under the rails.

Is it just me, or is that redic? I asked for quotes from Syracuse (Nearest Line-X place) But I'd rather now drive 3 hours round trip to get a spray in. We'll see how much they want.

So, anyone get sprayed recently, and if so how much was it?

Also, anyone know of anther place I missed around Binghamton? Southern NY, Northern PA?

On another note.. I haven't looked under the drop-in yet. If it's really bad, might getting a spray-in be a problem? Might just have to let this one rot out, and see about getting a newer truck next time i'm due for an upgrade.

Thanks for any input!

Bonus question: (Might as well say I'm a truck noob right now, as you're about to figure it out) Hopefully while I'm looking around I'll find this before someone has to answer my stupid question. How can I tell if I have the spark-plugs of death? It's a 5.4, about to hit 98K.

 

I don't remember the exact price but I paid about $620 for Line-X with X-tra added. Regular Line-X was about $420 or so, and to have X-tra added was another $150. Well worth the money and no regrets getting it done. It's guaranteed not to fade and if it gets damaged, they re-do it for free.

I've seen alot of trucks with regular sprayed in liners and they look like crap when they're faded.

 

think I paid $500 for the bed and tail gate...Line-X or bust

 

Just got done running through your mod thread, Tuna. Too sexy for me. Can't have my truck be prettier than I am. Haha. Very nice job.

Yeah I think I'll call the place in 'Cuse and make a Saturday out of it. Seems like everyone around here really prefers line-x to rhino anyway.

 

I had mine done at rhino liner for $350. Line-x wanted twice as much and it doesn't look as good.

 

mine was about 350. its a bullet liner

 

Line-X has all the military contracts...and I think it looks better than Rhino. More fine texture and uniform.

 

Got mine lava lined (heavy duty) here in Hawaii for $445.. under the rails

 

You can always get the DIY Herculiner or similar product for about $100 bucks and 8 hours of work. Get that drop-in out of there soon. I've seen some trucks on here with big rust holes due to the drop-ins. I'm still debating on Line-x, rhino or DIY.

 

I seem to only hear bad things about the DIY solutions. I guess I can pay the 650 if I need to... I think I'll try to talk 'em down.

Just wanted to make sure they were screwing me.
