I chose the Fold-A-Cover G4 Elite because I liked that I could open the tonneau next to the cab. I also liked it had locks on the rear panel and cab panel. Heard they ice up on cold weather, but here in SoCal, that's not much of a concern. I plan on buying the drop in carrier that sits under the front panel in the future. Figure it would be a good place when I carry the guns. To remove the panels you do need a wrench, but that's it.
