Bed liner for my new GMC, what to get.......
Have a new GMC 2500HD for my new 5th wheeler. Is a spray in bed liner ok? If yes, ia one brand better than another, the GMC dealer wants to do it for $375.. Thanks, Jim

Spray in is a great option. My only concerns might be the warranty on the liner. If you buy it yourself (at an elevated cost, I'm sure), you usually get a lifetime warranty from Line-X or Rhino Liner. If you buy it from the dealer, you will likely only get the 3 year standard warranty.
I have Line-X in my Tundra and had problems with it gouging and chipping off. I used it as a truck, so I threw gravel in there, firewood, logs, stone, etc. I had gouges and chunks missing from my liner. I would have gotten it fixed eventually, but ended up selling the truck.
For my Ram I bought the BedRug BedTred series. Looks like a spray in liner, but it is removeable, it is softer to protect cargo, still nice and durable and has a lifetime warranty.
For $375, you are getting a good deal. That is roughly what my BedTred cost me.
I have the fifth wheel pucks in my Ram. Wonder if one could cut the liner around where those pucks are ?
If you're pulling a fifth wheel I think the spray in liner is the only choice. Drop in liners are bad enough about trapping moisture and debris, but if you put holes in the middle of one you've really created a bad situation, imo.
