    What I like about line x is its in the middle. One of em, rhino maybe was too soft and another was way too rigid and things would slide around in the truck bed. This one keeps everything in place

    The plastic ones are but the spray in kind protect the bed from rust and corrosion. They also keep stuff from sliding around around.

    Spray in bedliners are a pretty good rust protector. Ive never cared for the drop ins. Seems they would allow rust

    Drop ins not only allow rust, they facilitate it by trapping water between the liner and the bed.

    Kinda what I figured. My old truck had the drop in plastic and I never removed it. It made for shit to slide around, too.

    Being a contractor, I imagine the beds of my trucks take way more abuse than most. Ive never used a bedliner of any kind, and I have never had rust issues in a bed. Are y'all planning on keeping your truck for 40 years or something? No way in the normal life of a truck are you going to have serious rust issues in the bed. That's just all marketing and y'all have bought into it.
