I think we could get a much better price than the $789 they quoted me. That was just the first round. I bet we can get closer to $700 if dealers are selling them for $800

I just got this message from retrax
Hello
Thank you for your interest in RETRAX. We believe
we have the best designed and built rigid retractable
pickup bed cover on the market. Our customers
have become our greatest sales tool because they
believe it too.
Here are some of the highlights from the web site.
The RETRAX has a very unique construction
using a one piece of polycarbonate almost 3/4" thick. Lexan
is a common name for this hi tech thermoplastic which
is used for bullet-proof glass and fighter jet windshields.
For extra strength we embed tempered aluminum I-beams
through it more than every 5". On the ends of these I-beams are mounted
precision sealed-for-life ball bearing rollers that ride inside the
rails and into our unique spiral track storage system in front.
There are no joints or hinges to freeze, fail or fill
with debris. We have no need for springs or pull straps
to fight with when opening or closing the bed cover. Our cover
does not roll up like a window shade. It does not even touch
itself when it retracts into the front, no extra wear and tear.
There are also anti-bind bearings that are mounted sideways on
each corner so it rolls smoothly with out binding no matter how
you pull the RETRAX open or closed.
It is a very strong design, strong enough to stand on
yet it can be rolled open or closed easily with one hand.
We built it that way for security and to handle heavy snow loads.
You can view it in operation at http://rolltopcover.com/demo.asp
The RETRAX remains stable and quiet at highway speeds.
The RETRAX cover and rails are gloss black which requires
no special care and looks great on today's pickups. Just treat
it the same way you do the paint finish on your truck. The
rolling cover is made black throughout, not just coated or painted
on the top. It is also made with UV protection built into it so our
bed cover handles the sun very well.
The whole system is designed to be weather-tight by using
automotive grade weather-strip seals all the way around. The
rolling cover is sealed with felt-lined rubber, like that used around
the front windows on today's trucks. This allows for smooth
movement and keeps the cover from freezing shut. The RETRAX
really does work in any climate, much better than the others claim to.
The RETRAX bed cover can be latched or key locked in any
position from all the way open to all the way closed giving you greater
hauling flexibility for larger size cargo and 5th wheel towing.
Compare this with only the 2 or 3 positions that others offer.
You also are not required to use a key unless you want to lock it.
There is no drilling required, installation is simple using just a
9/16" wrench and a phillips screwdriver and takes about an hour.
If needed the complete system can be quickly and easily removed.
Many of our sales are direct to the end user like yourself.
We do have a free informational video that helps explain the RETRAX
and how it works. Let me know if you would like to receive one.
We carry a 100% money back satisfaction guarantee so we do not
have unhappy customers. We also have a one year no-hassle warranty.
The price for your Titan is $889
Not all of the utility bed options can be used.
Shipping runs $32-$55 using FedEx ground or UPS. There are
many advantages to our design. I brought up a few of them.
If you have any questions or would like to order,
please give me a call.
Thanks again,

Ok guys who is in for real? I'm getting one, but not for $889 + shipping. I found it a bit cheaper at
http://northeast.zoovy.com/c=WcZDp09vU8UEg3gmcHaZ5lsBg//
It looks like $830 including shipping. I'll wait till tomorrow to see if we can get a group buy going. I don't care where we buy it as long as we do. Let me know.
Here is an interesting article that talks about getting $100 off the cover when bought through Retrax

I don't think I'll be getting the Retrax. Even at $789 (assume we can get enough to buy it), I think it's just too rich for my blood.

I see from the next post that this is a RollTop cover. Years ago I sold Three types of Roll up Covers. Roll N Lock, Pace Edwards and Roll Top. The best of the three is the Roll N Lock out of Florida, next was the Pace Edwards and the Roll Top gave us the most problems. Do a little research before you lay out the cash for a roll up.fillupc said:
