    Roll in bedliner???

    cold vs hot There are two types of applications. Herculiner is a cold spray or roll on application. It is soft and the texture will be more rounded. The cold spray liners have a tendency to fade more quickly and are of a lower quality. Average cost is 250-300. Linex, Rhino, Xtreme are a...

This was followed by 3hr trip to Cabelas in Hamburg and another 3hr trip to a friends house in State college. I also stopped along the way and drove through a few small towns to vary the...

    A gooseneck is a much cleaner setup with no hardware to take up bed space when not hauling your trailer. A friend of mine had his 5th wheel camper converted to a gooseneck type hitch for about $600. He loves it. One day he hauls cattle, the next day he hauls his home away from home--All with no...

    body color toolbox

    Midlife, That is why I wanted to paint the box. I thought it would look like an extension of the cab. Especially with a Long bed. That is also the reason for wanting a 30" box----make the bed look a little shorter but still have all the advantages of a long bed. Thanks for your input. Do...

    body color toolbox

    line-x Good idea on the line-x, but I am not convinced that they haven't fixed the color fading problem yet. I have a friend who sprays beds with a competitor to line-x. He isn't a big fan of the color match either. He won't come out and say it, but from our conversations, I think he expects...

    body color toolbox

    Since it doesn't seem that anyone has any pics of a truck with a body color toolbox. Do you guys think it would look good? I am getting a 26-30" inch box regardless of whether it ends up getting paint or just diamond plate. Pete
