Default Installed New "Extang Revolution" Tonno Cover and OEM Bed Rug Kit

I bought and installed the "Extang Revolution" tonno cover last week and looks really awesome! http://www.extang.com/docs/revolution.html

Its super low profile you don't hardly see it form 5' away. It took less than a 1/2 hour to install and was pretty easy. Quality seems to be real good, time will tell!

I also bought and installed the OEM bed rug kit and I really love the look and quality of this!! http://www.autotrucktoys.com/ram/Mop...6153C1103.aspx

Again it was very simple to install and the quality is great!

Highly recommend both of these items!

See my power lock thread to see what I did to lock everything up since Dodge couldn't provide me with a damn lock for my tailgate.

That lock isn't going to do you much good if a thief has a knife.

The lock still keeps the bad guys from stealing your tailgate...

I don't care what kind of cover you have on your bed, if a thief wants in bad enough, they will get in.

Yeah... but any punk kid can cut through a vinyl top. If you have a hard tonneau then it will at least take a thief with some tools, experience, and more than 3 seconds time to get in. That will deter the majority of thieves and those who just want to see inside.

Yes, please post pics. I have had one on order for 2 weeks and still haven't received it yet. They were supposed to have delivered it Friday but couldn't because of flooding in the area I was told. Considering we have had rain all day today and more on the way tonight I don't hold out hopes of getting it Monday either.

Wow!! What a bunch of haters...Of coarse if you use a knife you can cut into it, If I have a coathanger I can get into the cab, If I have a hammer I can smack the lock of a hard lid, in fact I've heard of people just pulling up on some hard lids and bending the latches. Bottom line if they want to get in there going to get in!! Don't be an idiot and keep anything of major value in the back of your truck. Better yet just buy an armored truck who cares about looks, right??

I will try and get pics up for those of you who are interested in a nice lowpro tonno cover!!
