Bed Cover

I'm looking at buying a roll up bed cover. Anyone out there have one that they would recommend? Also, which dealer would you use again? I'd rather use a site sponser for obvious reasons. Thanks in advance

I got the Access Roll-up Tonneau Bed Cover and I really like it. It looks good, installs easy, and you can roll it up when you do not need it. The only thing I had to do to mine, I think it was the add on bed rail covers causing it, was use some clear RTV to seal the side rails against the bed. I got mine form www.realtruck.com. Good people to work with.

I recommend a Pace Edwards "Jackrabbit". I have one and love it! Rolls up and can be locked every foot.. http://www.pace-edwards.com/jackrabbit.asp

I have pictures of my roll-n-lock in my gallery. It was originally on my 99 V-10 Super Duty and I put it on my 7.3. Its five years old and still looks like new. It is child proof... I cought my 5 year old playing on it one day. As well as this one has held up, I'll buy no other!

Ditto on the rollnlock we use them on several service trucks. They get abused and stand up to it kinda like Timex.

i bought a truxedo. It was a good price and had a great warrenty. I've had it for a year now, easy to install and held up great. They are a sponsor but i bought mine locally before i found this site. The local shop said he had a contractor that put a hole in his cover and he just called the company and they sent him a new cover. He also had a sample of the material with a hole in it and told me to try to rip it more and i couldn't no matter how hard i tried. For the price it couldn't be beat in my opinion

I installed a Truxedo Lo Pro and really like it. We have had everything from snow to down pouring rains and so far the bed is complely dry inside. It gets a little wet inside the tailgate when driving, but that is because the tailgate has a little warp from setting too much weight on it at one time. The cover comes with a full lifetime warranty including the fabric, so it seemed like a good choice to me.
