    PM'd a price to you.

    I will advise you to do the Extang Trifecta. It is the best of the folding bunch by far. Yes, there are others cheaper, but you are giving up some great features. If you are still wanting to go to a lower cost, I can quote on a Torza, or American Tonneau Co.

    I have the solid-fold and like it. The only down side is it wont flip up against the window like some of the others.

    I also didn't use the brackets they supplied, I clamped it right to the factory bed rails. I used some washers to space out the twist down clamps in the front so they would tighten properly.

    The rear ones are dead easy to put on, they are just springy.

    I haven't tried the others but this was the one they built into the financing as it is the official Tacoma hard tri-fold.

    It seems very solidly built so far.

    If you're gonna get tri-fold why not get hard. Can put stuff on top, provides security, etc.

    I just got mine for less than $700 even though the online pice is over $800 for the LB or SB. It locks at both ends and comes with a latch that you will have to pop rivet to the inside of your tailgate at the top but it allows you to lock the cover and in turn secures your tailgate. I haven't installed mine yet since sunday is my only day off that will be my prodject tomorrow. I will take pictures and post them. It is a cover that I havnt heard much about. Like i said it can be opened from the front or the back and can also be locked from both ends also. Unlike the Bakflip it will not fold up against your rear window, at least I dont think it will. Contact me if you have any ?
