    can i buy yours? haha im really considering shelling out some extra cash for an undercover. since i found out that with access roll ups you cant really lock them up and use them for security. (why i want a tonneau security and keeping stuff dry(storage)) how does yours do? can you lock the undercover and not need a tailgate lock to make it unable to get in?

    Mine is awesome. Keeps everything dry. I have the Classic, which has 2 locks on either side of it which latch to flanges installed in the bed rails.

    Obviously, they won't stop someone who REALLY wants to get in there, but it's a good quick deterrent. I've had my baseball gear in there for over a week now.

    It comes off in less than a minute for big stuff.

    but like unless someone had a drill or crow bar and a lot of effort it will keep people out? just as good as any other hard tonneau?

    Yep.

    Probably a little more so, since they'd have to pop two locks instead of one.

    Probably. Just use common sense.

    Don't keep anything back there like a shotgun or the good china, and if you're really worried about it, lock it in the cab.

    But it's just as reliable as any other hard-top tonneau. And as long as you aren't running your mouth off about the 25 gold bars you've got in your bed, you should be good to go.

    I like the looks of naked better, but I like keeping my stuff secure and dry. I've got a Armor Lid. It's a cheaper version of the Undercover. I like it, but if I had to choose, I would get one that will fold or roll up.

    I love the Naked look!

    So, I want the RollBAK, but spending almost $900 is hard to swallow.

    I also like the idea of the Bestop for camping and stuff like that.

    Pros and Cons to each....

    personally id get a hard tonneau and not naked. hard tonneau to lock in the tailgate so nobody can steal it. around here, peeps steal tailgates (since they're easy to steal) and resell them
