truck box or Tonneau for Xmas?
well Pops let me know today he was planning on getting me a truck box for me for christmas, but while he was at the local topper king he also checked out tonneau covers.
he's giving me the choice of getting a truck box or paying for $300 of the tonneau cover and I pay him back the rest. what should I do????
also the price he was qouted for the tonneau was $800ish.... that sounds a tad bit high to me, should I send pops elsewhere?

Personally I would not go with the hard toneau cover.... loses hauling space... I had one and got rid of it because I was always hauling stuff for work... I now have a tool box which does shorten the lenght of the bed a little bit but you still have most of the bed to throw stuff in. the tool box is also easily removable, 2 screws and its out. Good Luck and let us know what u decide.

Unless the truck is used for a business, or is so old that you need to carry the tools in back to fix it every time you gas up, why get the toolbox? Besides, a small toolbox can be placed in the bed under the tonneau anyway. I'd get the cover, it'll look good, give you less drag, and if you are considering the toolbox its because you absolutely NEED it so you shouldn't have a dilemna.

Tonneau gets my vote. If you aren't set on color matched, check out Undercover ( http://www.undercoverinfo.com/ ). I love mine!

I know you're looking for the fiberglass tonneau, but a few things to consider:
If you're out with the F/G tonneau on the truck and pick up something that needs unlimited ceiling height, you're kind of stuck with the cover
You need two people to remove a F/G tonneau cover, verses one for a hinged/removable vinyl cover
Finding a place to store the fiberglass cover - I had a 97 Ranger, and when I stored the cover in the garage, my Dad beat the hell out of it every the cover was in there
Just my opinion. Good Luck!
