Bed liner question
Does the adhesive work well for filling pea size gouges, or is it just good for cuts?
I have a drop in bed liner from my F250 that you can have if you want it. So you dont have to transfer your between trucks. I live in the Harrisburg area, If you want it its yours, I just coted mine with the Rustolium DIY kit
I also have a bedrug, it came with the truck. Was concerned at first and then looked at the website. I was sold on it. I mean if you are constantly using the truck for soil, mulch, dirt, and other messy things then this would be a bad choice. Too much to clean and would be a waste of a purchase in my opinion. Otherwise my bed still has glossy paint and looks better than the outside of the truck! It just depends on your usage needs.
I just removed my FACTORY installed bedliner from my '04 F250.
Had some rub spots to bare metal,......no rust.
Did retreive about three ponds of crushed granite from under the bed liner.
I spot painted the bed and reinstalled the liner!

Good point. A BedRug is great for just about anything except items that would get trapped in the fibers. Water will not, but sand, dirt, mud and another stuff that would normally require a pressure sprayer for. Good news is as long as you don't mind pressure spraying, vacuming, or sweeping it out then you are fine.
So what's the going rate for a spray in liner these days? My truck came with a plastic liner, but I would like to take it out and get a spray in liner. I know it's probably going to vary by location, but just looking for a ballpark idea before I start looking around.
I've been quoted $700 for a spray in liner on my old 8' bed
wish my truck still had the bedrug. I think the Dealership lot lizards stole it while it was up for sale. they left the velcro and the wiring for the bedcap though

Yea so far I dont mind it and sometimes actually like it. Easy on the knees when I need to crawl in the bed. I have a cap so the bed wont hold any bulk materials but I've put bags of concrete, wood, other building materials in it and only a vacuum was needed. If I needed to use the bed for raw materials I'll get some sort of other liner, plastic or spray, but thats why I have trailers. Beat them up instead.
The dirtiest loads I've put in my truck were a bedfull mulch and a bedfull of landscaping bed rocks. The rocks didn't cause any issue at all. Just spent some time reaching under my tool box to get the rocks that rolled back there out (which you wouldn't really have to do regardless of liner you went with). The mult was a bit of a different story. I cleaned it out by hand the best I could and then swept what I could, but there are still little pieces that pop up out of nowhere. Nothing stained, damaged, or different about the Bedrug though. Just makes it harder to get that kind of stuff out.
