    Guess it comes down to what you do with it. Bak flip covers are nice not sure how easy they come off. My extang leaves the step on the front of the box open to elements and does get wet inside. Not like soaking but still not dry. Their are other trifolds etc bought mine used 4 yrs ago still doing awesome 0 issues. Latchs quick and easy. Comes off with 2 hand knobs up front.

    I had the truxedo tonneau cover that rolled up and had a nice tight latch lock! Loved it and wish I had another! But that's was for my 08 Access cab... the one I have now is a trifold that it came with. It has 2 latches to make it tight and locked. To remove is simple and easy.. just fold it snap the straps and then undo the butterfly nut.. I take it off when I need to put my mountain bike and kayak in.. simple and easy and water tight. Just a bit cheap

    It was cool at first like most jobs I guess. I didn't know what I was looking at either. It's like a big drill press turned on its side. It mills drills and bores.
    This is pretty much the same mill just with nc controls.
    It's smaller than ours.
