Oooh, I beg to differ with you. You honestly think a drop-in bedliner would
give you more protection than Line-X or Rhino. Sad mistake. I guess you
plan on selling your truck in a few years with a rusted bed. Sad sad,
another Dak bites the dust. Tell him, DML'ers!

While we're on the subject mine has Line-X. I throw heavy stuff in it all
the time, some sharp, some not. When I say throw, I mean throw. Other than
the bed getting dirty and me having to wash it, you cannot tell the
difference between my truck and a new one, bed wise.

If you still want a bedliner just keep lurking on the DML. Someone will be
giving one away sooner or later.

Subject: DML: Looking for a bedliner

Well, it's getting to be that time of year again. Time to remove those
bushes, haul those rocks, etc, so I'm starting to look for a bedliner. I've
looked around a few websites (duraliner in particular), but I haven't found
what I'm looking for, so I thought the DML might be able to help.

I'm looking for a standard bedliner (not the spray-in kind. Not enough
protection, IMHO), with an under-the-rail design. I'd like to find one
that would allow me access to the front tie-downs (yeah, I could cut the
bedliner myself, but I'd rather not have to deal with that).

Also, what experience have people had with bed rail protectors (an
over-the-rail style bedliner would work, but I had one and it scratched the
bedrails badly)? Not sure if I want the diamond plate or just the plastic
ones, but it must be a no-drill installation.

TIA,

Steve O.
