mww982 Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 I've always had shells on my previous truck but thinking about going the bed cover route on this one. Really don't want a one piece cover like the undercovers or a power cover that has the box in the bed. What do you have and prefer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sox3 Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Have a Roll n Lock on current truck. 10 yes old and no issues. Will be putting same type on new truck when it arrives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staycee Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 We use a tri-fold hard top tonneau cover from Bison. It's worked well so far! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almostcammy Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 I have a soft tri-fold cover on my current truck which was only about $300, so good value for money but not much else good about it. The new truck is getting a Truxedo X15 because it's compatible with the ladder racks I'm going to install and it's very easy to remove completely when needed. They're all about compromise, so pick the one that has the attributes that are important to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirage Flatter Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Extang Trifecta 2.0 Signature. Nice, heavy duty canvas cover, good price point, American made with lifetime warranty, easy on and off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doyall Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Hard, tri-fold, low profile Rugged Ridge. Only "issue" would appear to be that the last section does not completely fold up to expose entire bed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBears Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 I really liked the LPX hard trifold from Line-x I had on my last truck. Now that I’ve cancelled the ford version, I’ll be putting one on my new truck also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russ90s Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 I’m considering getting the DiamondBack cover. I’d get the HD model just trying to figure out if it would be right for what I need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilotpip Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 I have a BAK revolver X2 on my current truck. It's ok. The new X4 model fixes the issues I had with the X2 so I will probably go with that on my 350. I like the security aspect of the "hard under frame but the ability to roll it up and have it almost completely out of the way without blocking my view out the back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was looking at this one last week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PineNut Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 I've had Truxedo LoPro covers on my last two trucks. Both parked out in the weather for 6 years plus and have held up great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralph K Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Is the soft cover worth it or is it better to go with the hard cover? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chino Tom Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I had a BAK Industries folding hard cover on my 2017 F150 for 5 years with no issues. I put the MX4 on F250. Really like the security this cover provides. Folds up against the rear window for full bed access. Easy to install yourself and folding sections can be totally removed in 5 minutes if you need to. Never found the need to do that. If I had 5th wheel trailer, would have considered the rolling version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I for one would not do a soft cover. They don’t last, at least in my experience. I had a hard cover for years on my last truck. Looked just as good the day I sold her.

Mchom Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I have had undercover flex and now had ultra flex hard cover on my current truck with no problems. It's a hard cover that folds up to allow for complete bed access, except for about six-seven inches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is how I’m going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t have any experience with those. Sorry. With all the issues, maybe just take the cover off completely? There are a ton of great after market options out there.

If you're talking about the Al roll up cover, it's awesome, however you lose some space in the forward end of the bed as it rolls down.

I'm not sure if it's Al roll up cover. I'm referring to the Tonneau Pickup Box Cover – Soft Folding ($560) that can be added to the build Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainKopper Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 When I bought my first vehicle (‘03 Ranger) it had a ARE bedcover. I put on on my next and current truck (‘14 F150) and already have the ARE LS2 ordered for my 250. They look great and paint matched exactly. Does get a little difficult when you need to move big things as it’s a solid cover and only lifts on its hinges. But I would never consider anything else.

gnwes Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I purchased a revolver bed cover, it's low profile and allows the full use of my bed when i need it. It took a couple of months to get so order early! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savagedo Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 (edited) Love love love my Bak Revolver X4. There are just too many times that I need full use of my bed and an view to ther rear. And, it looks awesome! Edited January 30, 2022 by Savagedo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
