My uncle had a Roll and Lock installed on his Tundra.It leaked from day one and now will not stay shut without a bungie cord. Its less than a year old. In my opinion its not very good looking either.

RETRAX, made from Lexan like an aircraft canopy but it is smoked so you can not see through it.
I paid $849 + $45 for shipping & handling on an F-150 group buy. They threw in the gaskets/seals for around the edges as part of the group buy.

Phone is 701 746 5596

ally, have had a roll n Lock

For 2 years next month on my 2kL. Haven't had the first leak. Only problem was one of rear retaining hooks sometimes wouldn't lock in. took it back to dealer and they changed alignment slightly and no problem for over 1 1/2 yrs. now. Like low profile look much better than plastic lids. covering fabric looks like fabric tonneau and looks great with a nice vinylex shine. Just my .02

Not an L Owner, but...

my vote is for Retrax. I have seen/messed with Roll N Lock and Pace Edwards, and bought a Retrax for my last truck without ever laying eyes on one. IMO, it is hands down the best. It is an easy, no drill install, and if you have a drop-in bed liner you don't have to cut on it like you do with the others. I liked mine so much, I just ordered one for my new truck today! Email me if you want contact information for the guy I ordered from - he is currently selling them cheaper than ordering direct from the home office. (And yes, I know he is legit 'cause I bought my last one from him too - $858 delivered including the gate gasket.)

WEBSITES:

Retrax
Pace-Edwards
Roll N Lock

I use the RETRAX roll top, strong, reliable, easy to install and good looks.
