Here's a thought.....ever see a pool being built and then sprayed with Gunnite??????? You'd have the best of both world's......concrete (sort of) and a thinner bedliner.
So, this last summer the 18 year old boy next door decided to make a redneck hot-tub. He lined the bed of the old farm truck with two layers of grain bag (you know the kind that looks like a huge tube that they fill with grain during the harvest, right in the field) and then filled the bed with water from the well. This double liner idea wasn't the first approach, it was his 4th or 5th try. He had put so much of a load on the well, that the tired old down-well pump finally died. It took 3 days to get the new one installed. Until the new pump was installed, they had to fill a water trough for the cattle, 1 bucket of water at a time, from said hot-tub. Father of 18yr old kid was laughing about it when he told me 2 months later, but I get the impression he wasn't amused at the time.

I did something a bit out of the ordinary with the new truck. Rather than going with the typical concrete over spray in bedliner approach I just ordered a Dee Zee heavy bed mat from Amazon. It was much easier to install.
