I've never had one either but want one. Reviews are all over the place on both these units but at Amazon the Retrax gets killed and the Pace Edwards does well. As it stands now, the Full Metal Jackrabbit seems to be the best option. The PE roll-up case is smaller and allows for more storage underneath.
I'd love to hear from folks who use the Retrax. Most of the online complaints are around the plastic piece failing too soon.

I had a ReTraxx that was polycarbonate. It broke around 2 1/2 years in. I then bought a Truck Covers USA American Role and it is in its 5th year and second truck and is still looking and working great. Just to add another option into the fray.

I've had pace Edward's on my last two trucks and they both only lasted for 3 years, so I'm trying the retrax pro mx this time.

That's good to hear. I've been eyeballing the American Work Cover Jr.(the roll with the small toolbox) Holds up huh? Mind tossing up a couple pics? Currently I have a Retrax pro MX and like it except for the canister size. Bulletproof otherwise.
