Just installed a Truxedo Low Profile, looks awesome. Easy install, quality parts & finish.

Although I went with the Truxedo, you may also want to consider the Access Lorado and the Extang RT. All three are very good and close in price.

has anyone with a 3.9 noticed any significant increases in mpg or decreses in wind when getting on the highway? i really want to get one, but if it does nothing but cover the back then it wouldnt be worth the money for me. im a college student and i dont have that much money to put into my truck, even though i wish i could. also, have i researched correctly to be able to say that there isnt much to do to a 3.9 in order to get more power? it seems that it is just too restrictive to be able to do much. thanks guys
