I need to put a tonneau cover on the wifes Dakota. I like THIS ONE from Pace Arrow. Does anyone have any experience with these? Are they worth the extra $?

Retrax is by far the best. I have had experience with lots of them and there is no comparison.

Let me know if you are interested. I can get you a good deal.

Max, does this tonneau have a good life span? It looks pretty durable. I hold you on that good deal. Thanks guys.

Excellent life span. You have to see them to appreciate it. Well, actually you have to see some of the other junk out there to appreciate it. I know the Pace Edwards has improved a lot over the years but they were junk in the past.

The retrax rolls on bearings so it is smooth as silk all the time. The Pace had aluminum on aluminum and they would wears so bad you had to kick them open. Very poor design. As I said they have probably improved. Over the years I have had a pace edwards, roll'n'lock, and now am on my 4th retrax on 4 different trucks. I can't speak highly enough of them.

Joe,

FWIW, that's just too much money out of the tranny BOMBing budget! So, the answer to your wife is, "Honey, they are all junk. All the guys said so."

Then turn your back, smile and clench your hands with that evil grin on your face. You have stepped closer to the smoke zone.

Oh, beware of heavy flying objects coming at your head when you turn your back. Unless, of course, you are a Jedi Master!
