Well I have a hard toneau cover.  My review of it can be seen on my Cardomain site.  Link below page 3 I believe. 

To sum it up, it really wasn't worth the money I shelled out for it.  And the soft ones out require that the holding strips be pulled out and turned 180 and reinserted.  Not much of a pain to do, but time consuming.

If you're really not wanting a shell, something to look into is the 3 piece panel toneau covers.  I can't remember the name of the company.  Basicly  it's 3 hard flat covers, each one can be removed indvidually.  And it doesn't look half bad.

Yea and did u see what some snow did to his LOL... just kidding but ne ways I personally don't like the soft bed covers, and i like the fiberglass hard shells! Even though the firberglass is more expensive it will look alot better!

the bakflip is one that my father showed me that he was looknig for for his fronty, and i kinda like it..the other one i was considering is called fold-a-cover or something, you can see it here....but i dont' believe that is the one where the individual panels can be removed..i could very wrong but from when i looked at it..i remember it being a 3 piece folding one..tho for the crew cabs i bet it's only 2 panels, again could be wrong

now on that same site it also has that bakflip so you can compare the two...the thing that my father pointed out about the backflip is that it seems to sit a little more flush with the bedrails, not sure...althought this one doesn't look like it sits very high, but hard to tell from pictures on the internet, good luck also if you shop around you might be able to find a pretty good deal, some with free shipping as that site is offering on that product, but for how long i dont' know
