Tonneau Covers?
I'm debating on weather to get a Retrax tonneau cover or one of those old fashoned ones (with the clips on it) what does anyone else have, any pictures?
Thanks,
Nick

I have a Sportmasters hinged soft tonneau. It swings up just like a hard cover for loading/unloading, unsnaps from the frame for tall items and id easily removable by one person when you need an open bed. I've had conventional tonneaus before. This one is better.

Is it easy to snap and unsnap in the cold, because as you can see I live where it gets cold.

Very easy. When you tilt it up, it takes most of the tension out of the fabric.

Love my Extang....the original....I bought mine on-line ( can't remeber if it was here or on eBay ) used about 3.5 years ago... I think it was called the Saber...it doesn't use snaps...takes 2mns to get off and fairly easy to put on except when really cold....
