I gave it away when I traded my 2010 today. Finally, the POS is gone.
I didn't know there are 2 different styles. Well now this explains why the shop sold it to me for $400. Can't wait to get rid of it. What do you have now?

I dont know about any MPH gains... I seems to have lost a few tenths with mine. I think it just adds weight when it comes to MPGs.

That's what I bought. It takes me less that a minute to take it off or put it on, it folds back enough for most loads and it doesn't leak. I had to kick a 125# kid off of it once. I checked it out and no damage. As for MPG, never noticed either way.

I've been looking at fiberglass covers since so many members have had trouble with leaks and such. Anyone have pictures of their truck with fiberglass covers on? Been leaning toward a leer 550

Truxedo, all the way. Had them on my last 3 trucks, never had an issue. This truck has the LoPro QT on it.

I have the BAK retractable G2. Takes very little space and when installed right, maybe you'll get a couple drops of water inside, at least thats what I have seen. Biggest problem was getting it delivered without damage. Found it for $925.00 at 1offmotorsports.

I have the Retrax Pro on my truck and love it, actually my third one and have never had an issue with any of them, nor water leaking. Only issue I had was a big crow stood on mine and attacked his reflection in my rear glass tint, and chipped my glass, and scratched the hell out of my Retrax.

I went with the ARE fiberglass because I think it is the safest for locking things up.
