Uncle Sam bought me a new Tonneau!



left side



right side


It' a Raider LoRider. I hadn't really heard of them till I started doing some research. They are a bit cheaper brand new than an ARE or a Leer, but I think those have carpeted undersides and mine does not. I also came across a place in town that sold a brand I had never heard before called Jason Caps which were cheaper new as well. But none of that matters cause I bought mine off of ebay for about half price so yeah for me! No scratches or scrapes but i did have to replace a hinge for $25. If money was no option I would have gotten a Snuglid SL, but for the price I am psyched. I have an eXtang RT thats in great shape that I will be putting in the classifieds soon.

Very nice!

I really like the fiberglass tops (had an ARE on my previous truck) and think they look best on any truck. I ended up going with my current one though because it only weighs 58lbs and I can remove it myself if the need arises.

I really like yours though.

It does look good. However, Uncle Sam paid you back interest free and you used your own money to buy that topper.

True, but it still looks good - glass lids rock.

+2 it looks good and you paid Uncle Sam all last year so that was just a little kiss on the neck as he was behind you taking advantage...
