    True, but you have to tape it off and spray it, and do all the work yourself. I guess I'm just lazy.

    but if you change the color again it'll be cheaper than wrapping it twice. Wraps/plastidip don't last long before they start to look bad.

    That site claims the dip will last about 3 years, and I know most wraps last about 5. Absolutely cheaper to dip it yourself if you plan to change the color. I'm just talking about initial cost, and work load.

    I had a bunch of dip on my first Tacoma. It's much easier to tape it off than peel off all the excess, mostly on rubber and hard to reach areas. I would think an entire truck would be miserable without taping.

    Was a local place, about a year ago. They wrap all the company vans at one of the companies that I contract from. I don't remember the name, but I can ask next time I'm at that shop. That's what they quoted me, of course my truck doesn't have a ton of painted area left with the bushwackers, roofrack and bumpers.
