I have had an Extang Platinum series soft tonneau for about 5 years (was on my
89 Dakota and now on my 99). It has held up great. The only advantage I could
see to a tilt up one would be if something small slides to the front of the bed
it would be easier to get at. I solved that issue by having a cargo bar that
wedges between the sides of the bed that keeps smaller items from sliding
forward.
