yes.
Thank you Chet, that was the exact info I was looking for. I feel a lot better about ordering my Extang Black Max tonneau cover now.

Thanks again to everyone for your input.
Oh yeah, I forget which large chain parts store I bought it at in PA, but it only cost right around $200, IIRC...+/- $10 or so..
Thanks for the heads up. I think I'm gonna go with one of our vendors. May as well support our vendors which support our site

Good idea. I had to buy mine on the spot when I bought the truck, so I didn't have much choice (or options...but I'm very happy with the cover).

The snapless is way easier than playing with all those snaps. It will save some time and aggrevation. For me the snaps would make me hesitant about take the cover off. I have had two of these covers on two different trucks. 0 problems, except a little foam tape.

Just my 2 cents.

I considered the snapless, but I'm trying to keep the cost under $200, something that I'm not able to do with the snapless covers. Once I move, I will be using my truck bed even less and will not remove the cover very often. It will mostly serve to tow toys and keep luggage and stuff relatively dry while traveling. I will also be putting on a lot of miles on my truck in the future and the tonneau will hopefully benefit my mileage on the highway.

I just ordered my Ex-Tang Black Max Tonneau Cover from one of our vendors, TruckXpressions. I also received my 10% discount. Hassle free order. I will take some pics once I get it installed.

I have the Truxsport on my Megacab and had one on the 1500 QC Hemi I had before. They are really nice as the rails roll up with the cover when you need to roll it up. There are also tension adjusters on each side to be sure the cover stays tight and snug. It has velcro on the sides and that is so much nicer than the snaps. We have never had a problem with it leaking. The rails come with foam tape already on them. We ordered ours from JCWhitney and even with shipping to Alaska it was a good price. I think right at 250.00 plus shipping.
