I had an Undercover classic one piece on my truck for the life of the truck (12 years). Never had a problem.

I know I spoke highly of the Peragon in the past. I still like the concept, but it does have cons:
1. Gets hot as $@#* so have some gloves handy
2. If it ain't within an 1/8" of where it should be you'll cuss it on open and close.

Hindsight, I would have gotten something else. Probably even the bakflip. I just don't like how that blocks the rear window when up.

I’ve got a Roll-n-Lock on my F-150. Lockable, sturdy, and doesn’t block the rear window when retracted for “almost” full bed usage. But it’s noisy with the windows down.

BakFlip MX4 on my current F-150. For versatility it's pretty tough to beat. Watch AutoAnything for their sales. I got mine for a significant discount.

I just put a TonneauPro Hardcover back flip on my Colorado. That thing installed in about twenty minutes and I can detect no leaks. I found one on Amazon for less than five bills which is a great deal for a hard cover. I like it a lot.

In two of my previous pickup trucks, I used an Undercover Classic. Both were perfect.

I just bought my fourth Tundra this past week. Unfortunately, Undercover no longer makes the Classic model to fit the Tundra, so I went with the Undercover Elite model.

For the first time, I am having it shipped to my house so that I can install it myself. I watched the installation video and it looks ridiculously easy.

This model also has the feature where you can use your truck key to lock/unlock it, eliminating the need for yet another key on my keyring.

I have a TruXedo Edge on my Canyon. Very happy with it and no issues.

Overall, there have been a lot of great suggestions posted.

As long as you don't go cheap with some no-name cover, you should be good to go.

+1 on the BakFlip

+1 on the Diamondback... Just put an SE on the Ram, figured 400 lb load rating on the cover itself is plenty, but the HD gets you 1,600 lbs if you want to load ATVs on it or something.

I have the BakFlip, and it is quite water resistant. A small amount of water gets in at the corners of the real seal, but that is it. I purchased the F1 model, but it is heavy. Wish I bought the MX-4 model.

I didn't like how the black alloy tonneaus like the Bakflip got so hot, you really couldn't touch them. A lot of that heat has to end up inside the bed.

My truck came with a Jeraco painted fiberglass tonneau. I like the look, love the fact it stays very cool inside the bed, but it's hard to carry tall stuff.
