Red face TONNEAU COVERS need help

I Need Some Help On Getting The Best Tonneau Cover For The Money.
It Seems Hard Covers Are Out Of My Budget. There Is A Million Diff Name Brands And Styles For Soft Covers. I Need Your Opinions And Hopefully Some Of You Have A Cover That You Know That Is Good Quality. Thanks For Your Help

For a hard tonneau I like the Undercover. I've had them on my current truck and my previous one. Both times it cost less than $600. For a soft tonneau I like the Extang Express. When properly adjusted you cannot see the bows and it looks completely flat. Awesome. Get the UNdercover if you can swing it. You won't regret it.

I have had a Genesis Hinged cover on my truck for a year and a half now and have had no problems with it. It is a soft cover and hinged so it opens like a trunk. You can also roll it up to the cab if you have something large to carry. Also if you slide the hinges off you can lift off the entire cover with no problem. I think its just a little over $200.

Extang Lo Pro Tonneau $272.00 at Autoanything. Just put the 6.5 on my brothers truck and I installed the Toolbox version for my truck about a month ago at $305 with free shipping. No snaps. Low profile and looks like a retractable tonneau when it is closed. Very happy with purchase and spent a lot of time researching but there is a thread I did on this if you search.

just bought the extang tri fold and love it. there are a few other brands all pretty similar. the tri-fold concept is great. very easy to open for access to almost the entire bed, and also very easy to remove completely when needed and stores relatively small. my friend has the hinged soft cover which i really liked up untill i saw this one. just my 2 cents. definitely noticed at least some mpg improvement right off the bat.

Check out the Truxedo covers. They are a soft rollup cover. The Truxedo Lo Profile is our best selling cover, but they are all good quality covers. http://www.truxedo.com/index.html
The Lo Profile has a lifetime warranty and is very durable. Check out the durablilty video on our website.
And for the month of May we are running a rebate special for FTE forum members.
