Tonneau covers

Looking for recommendations and pics of our trucks with tonneau covers.

Leaning heavily toward getting a hard cover, mostly because I'd rather have something other than black, but they are pricy to buy and ship. Can't beat the look of a hard cover painted to match the truck though. I'd settle for a soft tonneau in white if I could find one.

Anybody have a recommendation on where to get soft or hard tonneau covers ?

David

Re: Tonneau covers

I like the old school flushfit style that Checkmate makes.

Re: Tonneau covers

I have a Gaylord lid on my CST. I like it....but...it's a Beech to remove....heavy and requires at least two strong people. Looks nice though. It is not color matched as I opted to stay with black....not sure if that was the best idea or not.

Re: Tonneau covers

The Tekstyle sounds good.

Has anyone tried the Pace Edwards Jackrabbit?

Re: Tonneau covers

If you do get the tekstyle in white let me know and post some pics I think it is what I am leaning towards also.
