The one I have is made by "Action". Have you ever heard of those, or are they just the junk they are selling here in Canada? I found a Line-X dealer in my area, and price for the liner would be $455 under the rail, and $495 over.

Greetings Twentypints,
In U.S. dollars a Fold-a-Cover or an Access Cover (they look very similar but the Access is an improved model) will run about $550 to $650 depending on shipping and installation (self done or dealer done).
I myself after considerable looking chose an Access Cover and then self installed it. Now it wasn't a difficult job - but it took me about 8 hours over a weekend to do it really "right". I wanted it to fit tight, smooth, and balanced. I custom modified a couple of the brackets for my specific truck needs. the cost and the extra efforts in installation were all worth every penny. I haul service tools and new computer equipment. The cover had to be fully lockable and absolutely rain tight. Water in the box would not do - because the computer equipment is way too expensive to get damaged before delivery. I did not one a fabric tonneau of any kind and I didn't want a "sliding accordian" style cover or a 1 piece. This is snow country - with ice etc.. And strength? I can set an 60 pound laser printer on the cover with no deflection or worry of harm. No movement, rattle, or noise at highway speeds - folds forward for 3/4 access or for 5th wheel uses - folds back 1/4 for front of box access too. I can take mine off entirely in less than 60 seconds.
