Niiiiiice!

Yours is fancier than mine, but the same basic configuration.

Did you install the tailgate latch/bar at the back? How smooth is the locks, handle and rolling?. I need something my wife will be comfortable operating.

Ive been trying to decide between the Retrax Pro MC and the RnL A-series.

The Retrax is a bit more, but the side locks seem like theyll be easier to reach/use. I like the idea of the all aluminum. Any thoughts?

I have the roll n lock a series. If she can twist a door knob, she will be able to twist the locking mechanism. This is my second roll n lock. Had one on my frontier. Bought one for my f150.

Like Marcus said. RnL recommends spraying Aerospace 303 in the tracks as lube, Twist the lock and give it a shove. They do have intermittent locks every foot or so, so it will lock at multiple positions between closed and open.

I also have the RnL Cargo Manager. A sliding partition that allows you to position it to hold whatever is in the bed near the tailgate. Nice to have, but I don't know that it is $300 nice. I got mine free as a rebate when I bought the cover.
