Thumbs up New:Extang introduces the next generation of roll up tonneau covers.

http://www.extang.com/docs/revolution.html

Has anyone used this tonneau cover? It looks pretty neat and now they have these specifically made for our trucks in 6 1/2' and 8' beds. I am going to give this strong consideration for my 70cst when it gets out of the body shop. Looks like with this system no drill holes are needed which to me is a plus. What to you all think?

That does look slick. It looks like it is definitely lower profile which is good.
