They do pretty much the same thing. I have Line-X dealers in my area. I've seen them on trucks and it looks like some pretty tough stuff. Thicker than I thought i would be!

I have reflex in mine. Rubbery non skid stuff that works well for me. Its a bit thick over the rails. If i had to do it over again, id use reflex in the bed and line-x over the rails as its not as thick and looks better.

I would look at what kind of warranties they both have. I have seen some brands that start to flake off after a few years. I would think both of those have some serious warranties though, they are the 2 big names. I would do it if mine didnt come with a bedliner already

There is a Rhino Liner place here about a mile from my house. I'm going to get an estimate from them soon. Any idea about what I can expect that estimate to be? $400? $500? More?

yea 4-500. they have 2 different versions to chose from check their site. but yea rhino over linex. linex is really gritty and a pia to get dirt out of. rhino u just broom out, the linex grit holds the dirt in and stays dirty.

RamMark, glad to see you snagged that ram! Nice truck!!!
For me in North Dakota, I paid 455 for my liner over the rails. They kept my truck for a day. If im not mistaken prices seem to stay in that range across the country. Get your estimate, i could be wrong...thats just what ive seen and heard.

I called a few months ago for a Line-X liner. Local dealer said it would be $525+tax for over the rails. And wait for it. About an hour or so? That seems really quick but he was rather firm on 1hr total time. He said it dries very fast once applied.
