I had line-x installed 2 months after I picked up the truck. It was the best investment I ever made. I did cut it once moving an air handler for a friend. Took it to the shop and fixed in no time. I like line-x because you can go to any dealer for repair, nationwide. That is not true of Rhino and others. I have a RollBak cover and I would not recommend it to anyone. My vote is line-x. If you are looking at soft covers I cannot help. Hard covers let me know if that is what you are looking for, I have a few sources of personal info and my own research.

I couldn't think of the brand I used on my friend's truck, but I just remembered it - durabak.com
It's as tough as the line-x installation and was about $100 plus shipping, and offers a textured, rubbery surface that gives a little rather than tears, just like the Line-X.
And it comes in many, many colors to contrast or reasonably match your truck if that's important to you. Roll it on.
My friend hauls around transmissions... so it gets abused a bit as well.
I used hammer-finish rustoleum and just paint it every spring.

A Line-x spray-job is on my short-list, but I have only found two prices $460.00(Salisbury,Md), and $480.00(Dover). The Linex-X folks say they need the truck overnight, sanding, masking, spraying, and cleaning up, kind of a drag if it is too far away from home. Please let us know what you end up going with, and the price, and location details......By the way, adding color to the job, runs the price up by 50%. It is painted to add the color, as the base material will change color over a period of time, unless it is black. I had originally wanted to make the bed match the interior color, but not now.

I think they did a good job. I wanted them to pull the bed bolts out but they won't do that. They do pull the panel on the tailgate off though. That way if you have to work on the latch you don't have to cut through the liner. They fixed the cut that I got in about an hour. I don't know if they changed now but let me know how it goes.
