Tonnaue vs topper help me decide...GO!

[RS_Non-Res]

What advantages do you guys find for a tonneau cover over a topper (besides price)?

I've had toppers on all 4 trucks (>1M miles total) but I'm willing to consider a change.
The only time I removed a cover was when I had to move 3 cu yds of driveway gravel and the front-end loader couldn't tuck the load in under the topper (not that I expected it could).

I use the tonneau (Diamondback) because I seldom need the extra room in the bed. It's easy for me to install and take off in about 15 mins. and I can do it myself. Plus, I tow gooseneck and a 5th wheel camper so need it off the bed then. And I feel it is slightly more secure since there are no windows to break by a thief.

I have used toppers for the last 30+ years, I can't imagine a pickup without one.
