Any of you guys have any experience with a retractable tonneau cover? Its almost like a door of a public storage space. I was looking at this integrated toolbox + retractable cover combo from Truck Covers USA.

to me it looks very innovative and cool, but I'm worried that the retractable cover that is resting on rails will rattle alot. Has anybody bought this exact toolbox and tonneau combo or any kind of similar cover that has rails? thanks

It's a really neat concept that I would love to have, but not for $1700...

it's a toolbox and a cover together $1700, so actually it's not that bad. Only thing I'm worried about is that if it makes alot of noise back there while im driving.

My trifold rattles some times. I don't notice it much, but my brother did in the back seat when we were on some choppy highway. 10x as many panels, in a channel that allow them to slide? I don't see how it couldn't rattle eventually.

thats exactly what im thinking. I like the clean look, security, and very minimal loss of bed space, but if it rattles and makes alot of noise like my truck is falling apart, my $1700 is going straight into garbage.
