Hey Kotadude
If your talking about a soft cover, I got a LeBra / Saddleman Inc. http://www.saddleman.com/
I love it because it is level and inside of the bed rails had it installed in about 45 min.
Got mine at Autozone for $180.00 part # 9480
Be glad to send a photo if you want.

I installed an xtang soft cover and have been satisfied with the ease of installation and quality. Do a search for tonneau covers and you will get plenty of information. BTW If you want to remove your cover when it is cold, the soft cover may not be the way to go, gets very tight when it freezes and almost impossible to manipulate. That would be for a cover that utilizes the zip strip type fastening system. (which I really like)

When you look at a cover be sure to think about how it configures with a over the top tailgate cover if you have one. You may have to remove the stripping from the back frame piece or raise the whole frame with weather stripping so the tailgate closes without restrictions. (this is with the xtang zip strip type cover)I am not familiar with other manufacturers.

i have one on my 2001 club cab.....i love it........i think Mpulse is a branch of ARE, but the lo-pro is the only one that mpluse makes.....anyway.....it's the only true shell i could find that didn't come above the rail 3 inches......i've had lots of complements on it....the control arms are great so the gas shocks won't wear out easily.....but it hinges directly to the back of the bed..../..it is a little flimsier.....Note:no truckbed is truly square....i dunno why, but none of'em are exactly square.....mine's 3/8 inch outta square......oh, and the locks on each side get a little aggrevating at times.........i got mine at Trucktops in Bowling Green kentucky..........any more info email me at bruticus00@hotmail.com....
