Hi all, I'm new here and was hoping someone would have some experience with tonneau covers. I wanted to get one for my dad for christmas, but I'm not sure what kind to get. I can't afford something too expensive. Any thoughts? Thanks for your contributions!

 

depends vinal roll top, plastic , fiberglass?

 

i like the truxedo roll up soft tonneau cover relativly inexpensive goes on easy .http://www.truxedo.com/press-releases.html

 

Extang is a good one

 

i have the truxedo and i love it but to each his own

 

Anyone use / like the BakFlip? I'm really tempted to get one of these for myself.

 

I have a ******** fiberglass top and I love the look of it.

 

I am also consideringa tonneau cover and would also appreciate feedback on this issue.

 

I have the Extang rollback and have been very pleased with it. It was pretty easy to install, although I did have to use some thin magnets as spacers. It is also very easy to operate.

I can't remember how much I paid for it. I think around $300

 

I have the Truxcedo Lo-pro. I had it on my '99 Silverado before and now have the new one on my '08 (there has been some updates since the old one). Truxcedo is the only way to go! It has a tensioner that keeps the top tight and smooth without any fear of stretching the top. Even piles of snow on the top are not a problem. Hard-tops look nice but you lose a lot of versatility and they cost much more. I use my truck as a truck and sometimes you get an unplanned load over the rails where a hard top would put you ina tight spot...
