Happy with Rhino liner. As noted earlier, the installer told me it would fade, which it did, but less than expected.
I liked it as it had more give, elasticity, than Line X. Less likely to slip and more comfortable to sleep in the truck bed.
Linex. Mine is in a nine year old truck used every day for serious work. I have ONE spot that has torn up and that was from a forklift fork. Even the carbides on my snowmobile skis haven't torn it up.
Line-X here as well. Have had 2 trucks done with it now. Incredibly tough stuff. One of my work trucks had a Rhino liner and it faded and peeled up in a lot of places. Never had a problem with Line-X though.
I just got a 15 Tacoma, and even though it has the plastic bed, I'm gonna get it done as well soon.
I have had LineX liners installed in the last 3 pickups I have owned. Never had any troubles.
My current GMC 2500 came with a Rhino Pro liner already installed. The truck was 2.5 years old with 28k miles on it when I bought it and it was obvious the previous owner hardly hauled a damn thing.
So far...I have hauled a refrigerator, a clothes dryer, landscaping rocks and regularly haul a 450cc Honda ATV and my mt. bikes all the time. The Rhino Pro liner looks completely awful! It looks worse than the LineX liner in my old Tundra after 9 years and 260k miles of hauling the same types of things. I have a few tears in the liner where I dragged the refrigerator and other deep gouges from landscaping rocks and various hand tools and fencing materials we use out on the family ranch.
Yes...if you have a choice...I would stay far away from Rhino linings. If my truck did not already have the Rhino liner...I would have gone with LineX.
My truck is a 2012 but the liner looks like ones I have had in trucks 8-10 years old! LOL
I have a Reflex spray-on liner on my truck. I don't care for it much. It is too soft. I've heard and seen that Rhino's fade. I wish I would have went with a LineX liner.

Unless you haul rocks or do construction for a living, the best is Reflex.
Reflex is more rubbery so plastic gas cans and coolers don't slide around.
Line X is too hard and rough. It is great for construction workers and sucks if you are an outdoorsman.
Rhino is in between Line X and Reflex for softness.
I can assure your that most people in this thread have not used all 3 of them.

The reason I ask is that the liner I have in now has given up and begun to flake off.
At 11 years old I guess I should have expected it to go. I believe, (but I will check the receipt) that it was rhino liner.
When I get back in town I will check my paperwork and see if I have a life-time guarantee on it.
@ 600 bucks for a new spray in liner a life-time guarantee would be nice at this point.
