I like the idea of a spray in liner because I pull a 5th wheel and should be able to bolt the rails right over top. With a slide in liner I would have to cut it.

Don't be surpirsed if it looks like the truck in the photo.

$495 is not alot when you think of the increased resale value. A rustfree and dentfree box is worth alot when you are trying to resell your truck.

I barely have enough cash for Gas each week. I drive a 94 F150.. I live on the coast. I think the resale value of my truck is pretty low as it is...

And me...Also full size trucks aren't selling like they used to. So many out there now and with the price of gas it's that much worse. Seems like the only ones buying trucks are people that need them for work or 4x4 junkies. I'm putting up with the fuel mileage for now but it's still far cheaper than paying for a new truck. Have a beater i'll probably get going in the spring.

I put up with the crappy gas mileage because I like having a truck and I pull a 5th wheel.

Man what are some of your guy's mileage? I get pretty decent with my diesel on the highway, where I mostly use it. Especially considering it is a big heavy 4x4 truck.

I dont know what my diesel gets in the city, I never did figure it out. I find it really hard to stay off of the pedal in the city though, its too much fun letting the beast rip and roar.
