It's a whit truck my question is should I use the spray on bed liner or go base coat clear coat. Appreciate any suggestions. Basically what do u think would look better. I know there some will say what u like is what counts. This is true. I'm just trying to help myself decide I like both ways of doin it can't decide on which one.

If you running the truck all the time on the road and kind of for show i say base black, but i find if you have a lifted truck with nice meats on it then the bedliner looks good.

I plan on doin a 3 inch suspension lift in the near future and stickin with my 265/75/16 maxxis mudders till i have to buy news then goin with a 285/75/16 i think they will fit plus I am goin to get a 16x8 or maybe 9 rim. It's mostly highway and city drivin I do go offroad once in a while and take it to truck shows also.

Then probably just go black, i know if you did a lot of offroading the bed liner could even protect it some cause my truck throughs rocks all over the bottom of the truck

I like the bed liner look personally. If you can coat your undercarriage while your at it your won't regret it in 5 years I promise. My vote is for looks and utility.
