The photos page of their website is pretty cool and really like the idea and look of the product. Your thoughts? Photos | Bastille System Tonneau Cover

I like it too and it looks sweet. I just never like the idea of a hard tonneau cover as I always have something to high to carry in the bed, which creates a problem when you have a hard cover.

I likes it, but of course I would need to see for real before I would acquire one.

Same issue for me too. Also how do u reach the stuff in the middle of the tool box?

Answers

I asked some of these very questions to the manufacturer and they said the rear cover is easily removed in 5-10 minutes for transporting larger items. They also suggested buying a Bully Side Step, which is no drill and inexpensive, which would give you easy access into the center of the tool box. I think it looks so much better than those folding and garage door type ones.

Thanks

I like it, did you get any pricing?

Pricing

Yes, I asked on pricing and they told me to go to www.4truck-accessories.com and on there it is $1,545 delivered and the install looks pretty easy. I was told there are promotions from time to time that make it under $1,500, so I may buy it now or wait a bit and see what happens on the price.

Thanks

Looks like a nice system. Would be nice if they could get a flush lock in the back and black rails. With those changes I might consider getting one.

Ya, thats the standard response. Of course they all come off, but thats not the point.

Assume you are out driving one day and decide to stop by a local flea markets and see a sweet "big" item...then what do you do? Sure its great that you can remove the top.....as long as you plan for it ahead of time...

As far as pricing..seems a bit high compared to retrax or bak-flip which can be had for $1,000.

my 2 cents
