Pace Edwards RollTop Tonneau?!?!
Has anyone ever used one of these? Specifically with a Tacoma dbl cab? It sounds like a great in-between, but there has to be some pros and cons. Any input is appreciated.
Also, with a stock tacoma (dbl cab sr-5 trd v6) what are some of the first mods people do? I'm a noob with trucks, as i've only owned mustangs till now.
Thanks,
Rob

Not sure what brand it is, but we have a roll cover on our 2500HD Chevy at work. Its a great invention. You can keep it locked in any position, and you can lock it down. Kind of a good idea if you need to put anything worth anything in the back. I would get one if I had money to burn and had a truck. It came on the chevy, so don't know about price and all of that. I know you can get electric ones too that you can operate from a keyfob. Kinda neat... as for earily mods... First thing is some good tires, then LIFT IT!! Or do both at the same time so you can get bigger tires

I used to install them. Pretty good quality, but a bit overpriced.
Be sure to get a locking tailgate handle ($25) or you will completely defeat the purpose of the roll-top with lock.

um even if it does lock, it is soft
if that is the case couldnt i come along with a razor sharp box cutter and slice and dice my way into it and steal all of your goodies....?
why not a fiberglass cover, i would imagine they would last longer also, no rips, tears, fading and getting all brittle from the sun
