[QUOTE="MagicMtnDan, post: 100362, member: 2768"] Ouch Aaron! Opinions are like cars, everyone has one. I like the fiberglass, one piece "skating rink" cover (I used to have one on my pickup truck years back) but, it's not for everyone. If you need to carry anything that sticks up above the bed sides you have 2 choices: (1) leave the cover up at an angle looking like a launch ramp or (2) take the whole thing off. I personally like the Bakflip and you can hardly see it anyway. Of course I have a black Raptor so the Bakflip looks like it was made for my Raptor (and it was). As for the matte black wrap protecting from scratches I'll bet it won't, for the most part, do that. Bushes often have sharp ends and I don't see vinyl offering the kind of protection required. As for the big wheels, they add the worst kind of weight: unsprung weight. And that reduces handling and braking performance. But they often look good. [/QUOTE]
