Default Tonneau cover recomendations

Just sold my Lincoln Town car... snif snif the old boy sure did me proud all those years. Well now I'm looking for a Tonneau cover for my 2WD 2001 Ram quad cab. Should I go with Tonneau or one of them fiberglass shells. I was told the fiberglass shell aren't exactly light..

there are several options for tonneau covers... I have had the snug top on both 2000 & 2005 rams and liked them. the one on the 2000 had the dual locks and was easier to put on & take off. the '05 has a single lock and a "suspension" system that is supposed to keep it floating... doesnt work well.

for a lower profile setup... check these out...

If by fiberglass, you mean hard tonneau's, I'd think twice on getting one, depending on your situation. I had one in the past, and will never get one again. They look good, last forever, but it gets to be a pain if you want to haul anything in the back. Stumbled across a deal on furniture once, and had to run 45 minutes home to take the stupid hard tonneau off to buy anything.
