Which Tonneau Cover?

Looking at buying a hard tonneau cover for my 02 SCrew but can't decide on which one to get. I've checked out ARE and Leer...kind of like the ARE better but it's $800. Does anyone have any other quality brands to check or have a recommendation? Pricing? TIA

Have you seen/considered the Advance Cover? Folding Hardcover. Lightweight, can remove by myself, locks.
Paid $500. Installed myself. Had it a year with no problems.

I'm looking for a hard top as well.Decided on the snuglid. I think it's the best looking (lowest profile).

Got the Jason hard tonneau lid on mine, with the bed rug. It was right around $700 for the lid.

I went with the Tri-glas one piece hard cover. It was $695 installed with a factory paint match. You can get it for less if you install it yourself. Installation doesn't look very hard -- it just sits on the back of the truck and attaches via 4 clamps. Looks like a two-man operation to get it on top of the truck without scratching anything.

I went to the dealer wanting a Snuglid, but when I saw the Tri-glas side by side next to the Snuglid (which was also $100 more) the Snuglid looked pretty flimsy in comparison. He also showed me a couple of Snuglids that were damaged during shipment and on their way to a body shop to be repaired. Said it was a constant problem. At first I did like the low profile of the Snuglid better, but I got used to the Triglas contours and now prefer it more.

I'm very happy with it and get a lot of questions concerning it by people who also like it and want to know where I got it. So far it has also kept my bed contents completely dry.

Here is a link to a downloadable .pdf:

I had a Leer 700 series installed last June and
I'm very happy. The factory match paint looks great and this cover has a quick release feature
so I can remove the top while leaving the frame
untouched.
