Dont know about the Best...


I bought a TruckTec soft tonneau off ebay for $135 shipped! It's been on for 7 months and no problems. Have had a heavy snow a couple weeks back ( Mich ) and it held up good. All aluminum framing, 3 bow rod's, over all a nice unit. My Dad bought a 03 Dak just like mine after he seen it. He also bought this cover, and likes it. He lives in AZ where it gets hot, and no complaints from him. I am impressed enough that I am buying one for the New RAM I am trying to get.

Thats his web site. He lists the Dak covers for $129.


One word of warning. Mine came complete, but my Dad's was missing the clamps. Took the guy a week to ship them to him. Not a real big deal, just bummed my dad, he's like me ( or I, him ) and wanted to install right away.


Here is a pic of mine. Doesnt really show it well, but gives you an idea how it looks:

Fiberglass- I like Snug Top's Snug Lid:  http://www.snugtop.com/p_snuglid.htm , and also Gaylord's Speedsturr lid: http://www.gaylordslids.com/speedsturr.asp . they both are big name companies.

Extang out of Ann Arbor, MI makes a great vinyl tonneau.  I had one on a Ranger for 10 years and no major problems.

I have snugtop and  I love it.


Its rather expensive, but well worth the money.


A picture of the lid open.



Here is one I took of the tail light, but you can see how the


snugtop fits. lowpro but not flush


It also has 2 locks one on each side


When locked it also keeps the tailgate from being opened.


I hope this helps
