tonneau with a " RES " or roofline extension spoiler that might help MPG a bit more than a regular tonneau:

an unusual tonneau option that can also fold outward to make high sideboards or a rack:

a 'hard' tonneau that comes off and folds similar to a soft one:

hard/soft combination cover

aluminum but 'fiberglass like' rear raising tonneau

DON'T get a fold-a-cover. We put one on my wife's R/T and it leaks at the folds. The seals between the folds wear out and crack. A friend of mine has one on his truck and it leaks also. I put an ARE hard cover on my R/T. That way I didn't have people asking me to move things for them. If you want something moved, hire a mover.

If I had it to do over I would put a glass cover on my SRT (factory cover), but not my Hemi as I haul bigger stuff with that.

Incidently if you want the "soft cover look" but want something easy to open and can lock then check out the cover on my SRT. Bad part, takes up some space at the front of the bed. Also makes a lot of noise at higher speeds, which I no longer hear beacuase my exhaust it to loud

Also check out our new sponsor Truxedo.

Is that a roll-n-lock? Those things are awesome, we have them on all our company trucks, ours don't make the noise you're describing though. Highduke you should take a look at roll-n-lock too. Only downside is you lose a bit of space at the front but they're made of metal, they lock, and you can lock them at various stages of being open if you want to.

Yes it is a roll and lock. But unlike most of them has a black vinyl top.

i got mine at topper king.. i think it was around $1,200. awesome topper, looks great, i've never had a problem putting anything in the back, it opens pretty high. then you can use bungee cords to hold it down low on something so you can still see out of your rear view mirror
