TR.......I've had two of them, the first on my 90SS454. They are heavy duty and serve their purpose well. I like them because they keep my stuff in the back of the truck. I think they are easy to mount, as well. Some people dont like the additional body line created by the over the bed edge, but it doesn't bother me.

I sold my first one and recently ran into the guy that bought it from me. I drilled 2 holes to mount it and he said he would do the rest when he got home.....this was about 3 years ago. Turns out he never put in more screws. A storm blew thru and he told me it ripped off the truck as he did not have it latched at the rear. He found it in his neighbors yard and there was nothing wrong other than scratches on it!! He said he bolted it back on. Lucky it didnt kill someone.

I also carried home a set of double doors from Home Depot on top of the tonneau cover with straps. They are extremely tough, if that matters to you at all.
