Truck Bed Covers

Truck bed covers seem to be extremely popular these days

, especially out here in Southern California. A lot of guys buy them simply because they make their trucks appear better not because they actually need them. Naturally, I like the way they make my truck appear as well but primarily I like tonneau covers because they keep people from robbing my things while safeguarding my belongings from the elements.

I like the lightweight roll-up truck bed covers. They are simple to install and they open the truck bed completely as opposed to the hard top covers that tend to offer much more limited access. There are different types of roll up tonneau covers: there are the vinyl fabric types and also the hinged, difficult type that roll up on a spool. On my last truck I had the Lund Genesis seal and peel tonneau. It had velcro side and may roll-up like a sheet of heavy-duty vinyl.

Recently, I have observed some trucks that use the folding-type covers that appear much more massive then the roll up type. Therefore i thought I'd do a little comparison shopping. My main criteria would be a lightweight but tough tonneau that provides easy and full access to my truck bed. I did a search on the internet for both types of truck bed covers and read the descriptions as properly as the client reviews. One thing I noticed is that there seems to be a smaller selection of foldable tonneau covers then roll-up tonneaus. The roll up covers were made by manufacturers like Extang, Truxedo, and Lund with price ranges from $200 - 400.

The folding kind truck bed covers were much more expensive with price ranges from $500 - 800. Among the brands that captured my attention was BAK, they create the Bakflip folding tonneau cover and it was on the low-end of the cost spectrum. It comes in four foldable parts that can be locked in various positions including one that allows you to protect your rear window when you're hauling freight. You can fold it up completely or in sections.

After some searching a reading product description, I simplified it down to the Bakflip folding tonneau cover and the Truxedo Truxport roll up tonneau. Both have awesome, innovative functions and can be locked for security. Ultimately , I went using the Bakflip actually though it was almost twice the cost. I actually wanted a tonneau which was strong enough to stand on and that locked securely. And, I truly like the fact that you can open it in sections as well as lock it down in various configurations. Very cool.
