I want one of these!

Bed Cover that looks really good. Too bad its getting sold with the truck tho.

Anyone see anything like that bed cap for are trucks??? I have seen soft tops but I like the hard top better like the one in the link.

BTW: truck doesnt look at that bad but I would clean it up a little better than what it is.

I dont care for that type...sticks up too much and just doesent look right. I like the flush mount. The only company that makes one for it is www.checkerpro.com
They are decent for the money but by no means perfect.

Yeah I like the flat smooth type better. But that one for the most part is what I want. I want to end up with something like that but in the style Dave is talking about. Smooth level and locking latch. Just like the smooth fitted soft tops that have the rounded corners in the back by the tailgate.

I just looked at the only picture that has it shown closed and I didn't think it was that tall I thought it was a little more "flush" level with the bed rails than that.

I have a checker that I got about 4 yrs ago. Its still in great shape. Have the aluminum corners welded together as I did and you will have no problems.

I had a custom built one. I sold it. It was tearing up the bed rails. It was really heavy too. It did make for a better ride with the traction bars installed.
