The one I got is a soft Toneau and I paid a bit over $200 for it. I =
know they're available from California Conecpts (800.397.1161) for just =
under $200, but when I bought mine UPS was striking and they couldn't =
tell me when it would get here. (California Concepts advertises in =
Truckin' and some of the other magazines) Personally I like the look of =
the hard covers better, but given the cost and the fact that I would =
probably have to remove it about twice a month to carry stuff I thought =
the soft was a better option.

I guess it all depends on how you use it. Since I'll be geting a CC, the =
cab is for security. I regularly
haul my snowmobile in the back of my current truck and have been known =
to have a need to haul=20
something while away from home with little notice. Where does one store =
a hard tonneau in these
circumstances? I've done without on the current truck, but think the =
"window shade" type might be
the way to go if I decide to get one. I know I'll never get a "snap" =
type soft cover again as I had on
an El Camino years ago. You had to carry around vice grips to stretch it =
enough to close the snaps
when the temp suddenly got colder and you needed to put the cover back =
on after hauling something.
