Dont know about the Best...</P>


I bought a TruckTec soft tonneau off ebay for $135 shipped! It's been on for 7 months and no problems. Have had a heavy snow a couple weeks back ( Mich ) and it held up good. All aluminum framing, 3 bow rod's, over all a nice unit. My Dad bought a 03 Dak just like mine after he seen it. He also boughtthis cover,and likes it. He lives in AZ where it gets hot, and no complaints from him. I am impressed enough that I am buying one for the New RAM I am trying to get.</P>


http://www.carmicdirect.com/</P>


Thats his web site. He lists the Dak covers for $129.</P>


One word of warning. Mine came complete, but my Dad's was missing the clamps. Took the guy a week to ship them to him. Not a real big deal, just bummed my dad, he's like me ( or I,him ) and wanted to install right away.</P>


Here is a pic of mine. Doesnt really show it well, but gives you an idea how it looks:</P>

Extang out of Ann Arbor, MI makes a great vinyl tonneau. I had one on a Ranger for 10 years and no major problems.

Here is one I took of the tail light, but you can see how the </P>


snugtop fits. lowpro but not flush </P>


It also has 2 locks one on each side </P>


When locked it also keeps the tailgate from being opened.</P>
