I bought a roll-n-lock for my 99sd long bed. Very happy with results. Had fiberglass lid on my old truck, but this seems better because you can get to stuff near the front of the bed easier. Was expensive ( but all the lids are too) installed in less than a hour just over 1000. A few dealers I talked to said the roll-n-lock brand was the best. Installed by the dealer.

Just an FYI:

In 1995 I purchased a an Access Roll Up Cover. Nine years and (4) Ford trucks later, with (2) modifications at a local canvas shop, I am finally semi-retiring the cover. I am puting it on my daughter's truck this weekend.

Not a hard cover...but a great cover and the price is right...I think around $ 400.00

I narrowed it down to Truxedo or Retrax.

I had purchased a pace edwards for my other truck and it's been on for 5 yrs. I won't buy another. It doesn't hold up the cogs for rolling it up wear out and you have to replace the whole top.Which is almost the cost of the complete rool top

I've had my Retrax since Feb 2002. My truck sits outside...

24x7 in Houston (plenty of humidity and sun). The cover (when clean) looks brand new and works fine. You can also lock it in any position. The only thing I have done to it is washed it. I have seen other manufacturors covers that looked beat up and had faded rails.
