Thank You Peragon!

Yesterday, Sunday October 30 2016 my wife and I drove out to Canton Oh. from Pittsburgh Pa. The ride out was almost completely dry. I say almost, because it was the case except for about the last 15-20 miles of the trip out. The reason for our little road trip was to look at and eventually purchase an antique curio cabinet. Now I knew before we even set out on the trip that it was supposed to rain, but wasn't to concerned since I have a Peragon bed cover on my truck. And although I know it's not completely water proof I planned on taking a couple of water proof tarps, blankets, and pillows for protection. The pillows were to stuff inside to support the glass to prevent cracking. And they performed perfectly. The blankets to keep the plastic water proof tarps from scratching the finish on the wood while the tarps protected all of that from any and all rain water that might seep in through the bed cover. However somehow I ended up leaving the tarps behind in my garage. So now all I had to keep the cabinet from getting wet was the moving pads and blankets that I did take along with me. And even after driving the 80 miles back home in torrential down pouring rain at speeds up to 70 mph, the cabinet, blankets, and moving pads all made the trip completely dry. My wife and I also stopped on our way home and grabbed a bite to eat with out worry of someone doing harm to our new to us cabinet since I was able to lock the bed cover and lock the tailgate on my truck as well. The first pic is of the cabinet with out the shelves installed. Yes we do have the shelves with the cabinet. The second pic shows just some of the rain water that was left on the cover after we arrived home and after the storm let up a couple of hours later. So once again thanks Heath for making such a great product.

Heath if that post made you smile, just imagine how big of a smile I had when I opened the tailgate once I got home and found everything bone dry. Believe me when I say this is certainly one purchase I do NOT regret. I just hope someone reads this thread that is considering a Peragon cover and is convince to make the purchase as a result of my shared experience. And if anyone else that reads this thread and has a similar story they want to share can feel free to do so in this thread. #ilovemyPeragon.

Looking into bed covers for my 2017 truck to be delivered this spring. I like seeing and hearing good stories like this.
Are there any group buys or forum discounts offered?

I was hoping that others here would have had similar experiences to share about their Paragon covers by now. I often times catch myself still admiring that cover when stopped in traffic through the rear view mirror and when I'm filling the truck with go go juice.

If you scroll down LOTS of pages, you will find MANY who have posted about the great cover that Paragon offers! I have even posted photos of the install of mine.... but it is a LONG way down the forum. If I can find it, I'll attempt to update it.

Found it...it was in the different forum... https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...tallation.html

This is awesome, I have a 2016 F350 and been looking at several bed covers. Will the Peragon cover work with a fifth wheel, does it slide out of the way? What kind of programs are available to forum members?

TY, Erick
