Well EXCUSE me....
I have a Dodge 3500 Cummins 4x4 with shell, Rhino spray on line AND
plastic bed liner insert.
So there,,,blaaat. :-))))))))
Seriously I like the Rhino as a primary protector of the metal and as
a pretty good sound deadener. The plastic type insert came as part of
the purchase deal but it does move and there are holes for the bed tie
downs. I was concerned that the plastic line would wear through the
paint of the bed with said movement and, paid to have the Rhino
sprayed in prior to installing the plastic. Now I am considering
having the lower portion of the cab sprayed with the Rhino stuff and
eliminate the carpet.
Which is a pain in the arse to keep clean and dry in wet muddy weather
and harbors damp which could start rust ( so far so good ) in the
floor of the cab. Also the sound deadening aspect of the spray on
stuff appeals to me.

Looks like you got a 3-4 year supply all at once. Now that you have enough to
see, don't forget that if it's yellow, it ain't edible.

Palmettoes more likely. They'll probably just barely survive. It snows at
Myrtle Beach sometimes, occasionally gets quite cold, and the palmettoes
seem to survive. Your climate is a bit more marginal, but a little snow
doesn't necessarily doom them.
We got a lot more snow than expected here too. I hope the roads are cleaned
up by Sunday night.

I have the sprayed on Rhino liner, a rubber mat and the roll-up vinyl
cover with the velcro side fasteners.
The spray on liner is way better than the plastic inserts because it
doesn't allow moisture buildup between the liner and the bed, and it's
got pretty good traction to it. Those plastic things are slippery.
The cover is great. The bed is always dry and clean.

If you're going to have a bed cover, might as well just drive an SUV.

You weren't supposed to give away the secret about my incredible
mysterious powers over the weather!
And, BTW, why don't you have a cab or tonneau cover over your pick-up
bed? Now you're gonna have to shovel all that snow. That's pretty

I think it'd be pretty dumb if I were actually going to shovel out
all that snow. LMAO It'll melt - sometime. No prob.

I have a rolling bed cover. It is sort of like those covers you used
to see with a bazillion snaps all around the bed, but instead of snaps,
there is a line of velcro along each side of the bed that holds the
cover closed and a latching mechanism at the back of the bed to hold it
tight and closed (I know, I'm not doing a real good job of describing
this). Takes about 30 seconds to open the cover and roll it to the
front in order to use the bed as a full pick-up bed. Otherwise, one can
use the bed with the cover in place like an enclosed trunk. Best of
both worlds.

Nah, sissy stuff. Real men drive trucks where you can see the road through
the gaping rust holes in the bed. :)

'zactly what I have too. Great for keeping the snow out of the bed and
off the plywood (and the road dust off the moose quarters).

Yeah, to cover up the gaping rust holes in the bed... I hear they actually
cause rust, but OTOH they look at lot better than scratched up paint.

I have a crappy job because when push came to shove, I discovered that
staying home was important enough to trump everything else. If it requires
being subject to relocation, I won't do it unless I have absolutely no
alternative. That rules out a *lot* of jobs these days. Like everything
that pays money.
Dad's in the same boat, really. If the local company he works for goes
under (and Wal-Mart competes with them, so you can see the writing on that
wall), he's plenty qualified to take a similar job with any number of
national chains (like Wal-Mart), but they'd all force him to be subject to
random relocation.
Random relocation sucks. If I can't buy a house and live in it until I die,
what's the point of working at all?
My grandpa bought his house in 1946.

Thanks for posting that. Now I know what to do for my '87 F-150,
that I have been unable to find a replacement floor liner for.
