Question Thoughts on the Retrax bed cover?

Hey all, how's it going? I'm looking into a bed cover for my 04 SCREW and I've set my sights on the Retrax. Any thoughts on this one? I don't to deal with velcro, snaps, or anything like that. I need as much water resistance as possible.

Thanks in advance,
Anthony

it doesnt look bad but if you get it it looks like you will lose some bed space from the cover when its rolled up.

I've had one for about two months now and have been happy with it so far. I had a Roll-n-Lock on my last truck for about 5 years and it was fine too. The Retrax is cheaper and easier to install but it doesn't lock to the tailgate like the Roll-n-lock does. Both leak a little water at the back corners where they meet the tailgate, but not much.

The best price I found for the Retrax was at mechanics-warehouse.com There is also a coupon code for them (dsc2f) that's $20 off the Retrax and if you call in the order and tell them you don't want the "free gift" they will knock off a bit more.
