Removable Tonneau Covers?

Removable Tonneau Covers?
Does anyone know if there are any tonneau covers that fit our Bricknoses/OBS's that are easily removable, and don't require drilling any holes or installing anything permanent?
I realized the other day that my truck won't allow me to store anything without it being out in the elements, on the floor, or on the seat next to me. It would be kind of nice to have a cover that I can just throw on my bed whenever I need to store something or carry something with me short-term.

When I bought my '02 used it came with a roll-up tonneau. Wrong gen truck and I don't know the brand, but there were rails that clamped to the bed rails. You could unroll the cover and it latched into the back of the rails and velcro'd down to the sides. When you rolled it up there was a strap to hold it rolled at the front of the bed. I really liked that, but I need a topper to hold more stuff when my family is on vacation, or to hold my dogs. But if I wanted a tonneau, that's the type I'd want.

Most soft tonneau cover frames just clamp on. If you just undo the corners, you can leave the whole tarp together, loosen the clamps and slip the whole thing off in one piece and stand it up against the wall. Been there, done that.
The only thing that makes it tough is the sponge/rubber tape on the bottom of the rails that tend to stick to the paint of the truck over time. With some wax on the truck rails, it comes off much easier when you lift it up.
I've used Berlin tarps for all my trucks in the last 20 yrs. They are made local to me in Berlin, Ohio(amish country).
