I got mine years ago. I called several spray-in bed-liner places and asked them what they did with the plastic ones that they took out. Then I asked if they had one that would fit my truck. I found a place on the other side of town that had one and it cost me $50, and a road trip for the wife.

Subscribed (better late than never, am I right?).

I have a poly one. Easy install, but heat warped the edges of it and now it looks pretty hideous. I would've gone with spray on liner, but the poly liner is the only thing holding the bed together at the moment.

Never been a big fan of the poly liners myself just for the fact that they warp. My dad had a 89 GMC with a poly liner that caused the bed to rust out. With no way for the water to escape due to the silt build up that accumulated from the poly liner being in the way. So the water just sat and sat rusting out the bed.

just took a poly liner our of the 1994 F150 we bought last month, underneath looked like it just rolled off the factory floor. I have had several trucks with these in them and you should rinse out under them a couple times a year. My main complaint is they let everything slide around which is why the last three trucks I have used the rubber mat style, keeps things in place, cheap and easy to take out and wash things up.
