Tonneau cover suggestions

I have an 04 F150 Supercrew XLT 5.4 Triton 4X4 +++++

I am looking for suggestions on a decent fiberglass tonneau cover, there seems to be so many choices and so many dealers.

Anybody find a decent cover for a decent price???

Define 'decent'! Type 'tonneau' in SEARCH for comments/prices on several brands of hard lids. Some praise brands, others have had problems with the same brands. Prices vary from $600+ to $1100. Things to consider are availability in your area, fit (beware the front corners), paint quality, aesthetics (over-the-rail vs. other), type of latches/locks, hinge type, clamp-in vs. screw-to-bed, plastic vs. glass, interior lining (?), water entry, dealer vs. self installed, warranty, etc.

Search Google...type 'tonneau covers' for dealers, features, and manufacturers.

eastcoastScrew, take a look under the sticky Aftermarket message. I put a list of companies that make hard tonneaus out there, whether fiberglass, aluminum, or plastic. I can not recommend all of them as I have only dealt with a couple ovwer ther years. ARE and Undercover. No problems with either.

the "Bedliners" forum has tons of information/opinions on hard shell tonneau covers as well as the semi-hard retractable style.

Go have a peak at some of those threads.
