Need help choosing tonneau cover...

Hey guys,

Once again I cant seem to make up my mind

I want to get a hard painted tonneua cover for the truck but unsure of which one to get.

My local truck accy carries triglas and leer, and he is suggesting the leer more. Please post any pics and likes or dislikes.


Thanks,

Bob

I would take the leer over the triglass. The triglass has an ugly hump in the back were the lock is. I must say the triglass is better quality in my opinion.

Just an option.

I would go with the Snug Top. We cannot get them in Maine though.

Thumbs up SNUGLID ALL THE WAY!

Really like my SnugLid. Fits like a glove. Especially like the way it completely covers the black bed rails.

n6van, does your Snuglid wrap a little around the cab at the bulk head? I've been looking at them here in LA. Best price so far is $885 incl. tax, install. and headliner carpet. How did you do? Thanks, TP.

I'm probably in the minority but I really like my ARE LSII. Some folks can't deal with the hump but I think the rounded edges fit the lines of the truck better...

Just got my Leer 700 series yesterday for my '02 L. It has carpeted underlid, single key lock point, quick release for easy removal to haul.

The leer has pics on it's web site. Go to the Product Directory on this site and go to Leer's web page. Look at the 700 series detail and the pic. It has style to it and almost looks like a spoiler.

I paid $750, installed with carpet underlid, no interior light though.
No pics yet... soon.
Good Luck
