If I can answer any other questions, please let me know. I'd love to have your order, but only if our cover will be a good fit for your needs.

Ok, I know there are a million threads on retractable bed covers. But there are SO many options. I am pretty picky, and know what I want, but have yet to find something that meets my needs 100%.
I am looking for something that. (in order of importance)
A: Waterproof (or as close as you can get)
B: Less than $1,000
C: Hard Cover, (Fold up, or roll up)
D: Able to be removed easily
E: Able to be opened without opening the tailgate. (not really that important, but nice)
Any suggestions?
I have been looking at
BakFlip
RollBak
Pace Edwards
Roll N Lock
Peragon
Protrax
Just so many choices! Anyone have any advice or suggestions on which is best? I dont need anything powered, its just not necessary, and costs more..

It can be removed and reinstalled in 10 minutes.
It takes up no room in the bed.
My father had one on hos truck and he forgot more about trucks and accessories like this than most people know.

The only concern I have for the peragon is that I go camping alot, and we STUFF the bed, I can see it being extremely problematic trying to unload, not being able to open the cover up because of things that are packed underneath.
I will have to do some more research into peragon. They were my first choice, with that being one of the few drawbacks..

I am getting an extang, it is a trifold and the way it mounts on top of the bed rails it looks like it will be the most weatherproof.

Thanks, Tim! Exactly - we live, play and work in some fairly severe winter conditions here in the northland and our cover is designed to operate well through it all. It is rare that we have enough snow or ice to cause me any trouble operating my cover. A once over with a snow brush and the cover opens fine. Rubber bumpers keep 1/4" of space between the folded panels so some ice or snow left on the panels doesn't interfere with operation.
