I like the Extang Trifecta, soft top with all the perks of a hard top and not too pricey, extremely fast to open and remove/install from truck. It's a very light all in one piece, no tools or separated clamps or rails to put on. Can only be opened from inside the box so you can lock your tail gate(as long as a thief doesn't have a knife to rip open the cover your good.....lol)

This is the Tonneau cover that I just put on my truck. Great addition to the truck, very sturdy and light. Locks everything inside the truck using the tailgate lock. Can flip open easily to use whole truck bed, or you can flip open only 1 - 2 sections for partial use. Best investment I've made yet for accessories on my new toy.

I like the Roll Bak but they are expensive! What's your budget?

When it comes to budget, i wish i could buy cheap, but i think for fit and finish will have to suck it up.

the hard tops suck if your loading quads/snowmobiles etc. thats where the softtop/rollback have the advantage, first decide on the type, then you can narrow it down

I have a Ford Racing Torza Trifold soft cover. Comes on and off in 30 seconds, nice and light.
I am against hard tops as I have seen too many trucks (including my own)need the bed panels repainted because of hard tonneau damage.

I also have a tri-fold soft cover and love that it is easy to open up a bit or take it off.

Exactly, figure out what you are going to haul, if anything, and then get the appropriate tonneau.

I got the ExTang FULLTILT, you can take it off as 1 piece like a hardtop, or roll it up like a soft top...very versatile, and not extremely expensive.

in my opinion, she's a woman..it's not like she'd notice anyway LOL!
