Yeah,
I forgot to mention, based on the bed pic:

This brand/model, Gator SFX, you do need to add additional foam/insulation on the front part of the tonneau-frame to keep dirt/dust/moisture out of the bed...
There's a gap...

I used Access-Brand Tailgate Seal, 30946, to seal up the front part.

Gee on mine the 2"by2" piece of foam that was provided with my Gator SFX sealed up the front just fine. The seal on the frame contacts the provided foam with about a 3/8 to 1/2" over lap.

Mine didn't come with any foam!
Home depot. Real cheap. Amazon for the weather seal flap thing. Spent about 20 bucks total maybe. I like the foam you guys have shown on the responses. My solution is a crappy one for the sides of the tailgate.

Truxedo Truxport. Cost about $300. It's a vinyl roll-up cover but that's what I always put on my trucks since I often need the whole bed open. Seems like a quality unit, the hardware is good, and fits with no mods to the factory drop-in bedliner. Had it for about 9 months and it doesn't seem to leak.

I've used a "TonnoSport Tonneau Cover" for three years and it is holding up fine. I like the roll-up covers since I use the bed a lot and I don't store anything of value back there. I might have paid $250-ish for it, if I remember right.

I have Gator tri-fold aluminum ~$500. Installing the mounting brackets was a challenge, but no issues since.

I ended up going with the Rough Country soft tri-fold. Should be here this week, I'll update with pics once I've got it on

Do any of these have any kind of lock on them? I'm looking for one to slap on for occasional cross country trips so I'd need to lock it.

Mine has a latch inside that you slide that will lock the lifting latch. It's technically locked when your tailgates up and the doors are locked. But you can easily cut through the soft ones so if theft is an issue it's better to get a hard cover.

Yeah that's true...triples the price though.
