looking for a new soft tonneau cover
The cover of my previous soft tonneau cover has had it. I really liked it but the company that made it doesn't make tonneau covers anymore. That sucks because this one lasted about 10 years. So now I'm stuck looking for a new one.
I haven't been able to find one that is comparable to my old one. Is there some other design other than snaps that won't come undone as I drive with a few inches undone at the end? An example would be driving with a push mower handle sticking out the end. I don't like the look of the snaps. Plus who knows how long they'd last. I might think about getting one if the snaps are hidden.
Any suggestions? I'd prefer to keep the price $300 or less. Here's a picture of the clips from my previous tonneau.

I have an Access cover for mine. Best one I've found. Stays tight in all conditions. Had 2 feet of snow and it wasn't sagging. Doesn't use snaps. 2 rails clamp to the inside edge of the bed rails and it uses velcro.

I use an Access roll up cover for my truck. Been very happy with it. Stays tight in all conditions. Had 2 feet of snow on it and it didn't sag. Doesn't use snaps. 2 rails clamp to the inside edge of the bedrails and secures with velcro. Link below.

If you have a locking tailgate, check out the Extang Trifecta. It's worth the extra $40 to $60 just for how convenient it is.

I got one for an F250 locally for $360, but you can order it online for $340 (that includes shipping).

Thanks for the inputs. While the Access is a little more than I want to pay, I might get it. I'm just worried about it sagging in the middle. I personally don't mind the "covered wagon" look since it provide support in the middle. There is a local dealer for the Access covers. They said they have a few different covers on display. I plan on checking them out today.

Access Lite Rider
I put on an Access Lite Rider today. Its the best all around for your buck. My buddy has one on his truck that has been holding up for two years strong now. The install only took about 10-15 minutes. I'll post some pictures to my gallery tomorrow. Best part is i got a sweet deal on one for $200.
I still haven't made up my mind. I'm not a fan of ones that mount on the inside of the rails. I'm going to see if I can find something that mounts over the rails but uses velcro. It's a PITA finding a cover. It doesn't look like anybody makes one similar to my old one which ticks me off.
I have the same cover. I've been extremely happy with it. It took all of about 5 minutes to install and the quick release makes folding it up super easy. If you need to take it off all the way it takes the same time as it does to install.
