GO FARTHER AND PLAY HARDER WITH YOUR SUMMER BIG KID TOYS!
May 4, 2012 - LINE-X Protective Coatings, The summer season is a great time to bring out the big toys. Out come the boats, lawn mowers, four wheelers, dirt bikes and all-terrain vehicles for plenty of fun and excitement all summer long. While summer doesn’t have all the freezing, thawing or salt of colder months, which can cause a bit of havoc on equipment, it’s still a good idea to protect your toys and gear from the elements so they go father, and you can play harder. |

Choosing The Best Bed Accessories - Adding Line-X, Tie Downs, and a Removable Tonneau
January 19, 2012 - OMAHA, Neb. -- More often than not, truck owners buy trucks with the intention of using their truck beds for work—either with things permanently mounted in the bed or with heavy loads carried in the bed. The problem with “permanent” bed modifications is that they can often get in the way of carrying loads and prohibit other bed modifications. Roll bars won’t allow shells to fit, bed boxes take up room, hard tonneau covers make a truck bed little more than a big car trunk—there are sacrifices to be made.

Storm-Chasing Vehicles On Display In Omaha
January 19, 2012 - OMAHA, Neb. -- Two nearly tornado-proof vehicles featured on the Discovery Channel are on display at the CenturyLink Center Omaha.
It looks like a tank on wheels, and that's essentially what the Dominator is.
"The safety of this vehicle is a 16-gauge steel on the outside, external roll cage, this Linex bulletproof composite material. The whole car has bulletproof windows," said professional storm chaser Chris Chittick. |

November 28, 2011 - When Reed Timmer and Chris Chittick of the Discovery Channel's Storm Chasers head for twister country in their vehicle the Dominator, they need tough tornado protection.

SEMA 2011: Line-X Coating Protects Against Tornados and Much More
November 15, 2011 - What is normally considered a truck bed liner, Line-X’s protective coating proved to be much more as it served as the armor plating of the Discovery Channel’s Tornado Chasers mobile laboratory. Even the rust color of the coating made us think of some kind of prehistoric animal. It’s difficult to tell but under the armored shell a Chevy Tahoe lives. |

MSN Autos, Most Outrageous Rides at SEMA 2011
November 15, 2011 - The Dominator is a different kind of outrageous. It's not your typical flashy SEMA rig, with brighter paint and more horsepower than the next guy. No, it's a purpose-built Chevrolet Tahoe, designed to chase down tornadoes. What kind of person chases down tornadoes, you ask? Our first guess is the clinically insane. If you fall into this category, here is a vehicle for you. It comes with bullet-proof Lexan windows and is draped in brown Line-X truck-bed liner to help protect it from the, uh, elements. |
