I installed a DualLiner about a week ago, here is a quick review.
I paid $379, including shipping, directly from DualLiner. I have the tailgate step so there was one less piece to ship me, so it was $20 cheaper.
It arrived in a big box, and damn it is heavy! That thick rubber floor is beefy. I think it will outlive the truck.
First thing to do it remove the bed tie-downs. Then the front piece goes in, then the sides. Best to watch the install video first, because order is important here! The push-pins go in next, and THEN you re-install the bed tie downs.
I had to take a sharp utility knife and trim a few small bits to make it fit. The holes for the bed tie-down bolts needed to be opened up about 1/4" on the back, and the side piece on the driver's side had to be trimmed about 1/4" to make it fit under the stock bed rail cap.
There is about a 1/2" gap on the driver's side, but it fits nicely flush on the passenger side. See the pics. A bit of an annoyance, but not a big deal.
Last thing in is the rubber floor. It slides under the sides and the front. It takes a bit of muscle to get it in there and seated just right. It doesn't help that it was pretty cold when I was installing it - it will take a while for it to flatten out, as it is shipped in a roll.
Yes, water, dirt, and other crap gets under it, just like any other non-spray-in bedliner. But at least it is fairly easy to pull the floor out and wash under it. It has lots of raised bumps on the underside to allow the water to escape.
Pros: No-skid, impact resistant floor surface. Tight fit against the sides. Bed tie-downs are not hidden and hard to get to. Easy to install by yourself. Forever-warranty. Good price.
Cons: Not a perfect fit. Water and dirt get underneath easily. Bed tie-downs now mounted on top of plastic (will this reduce their hold strength?) Hard to install in the rain at 35F
It was more expensive than a 1-piece bedliner, but cheaper than Line-X by a few hundred $.
