Tonneau cover recommendations

Thinking about putting a tonneua cover on my short bed. Any recommendations on brands/types/costs?

Thanks!

 

OEM

 

I have an access limited and I like it - had it a little over a year. If I did any research and knew about the softopper I probably would have gone that route. I got the access limited from a vendor on here, good deal and fast shipping.

 

Anyone have the Extang Encore? Not cheap but looks nice

I'll 2nd this one, I called and talked to Jaeson, told him I was steered his way via this web site. He gave me a better price, plus it's strong enough you could load large items right on top of it, just run straps under the lid, and ratchet down.

 

I just bought a 2017 and they are going to be putting this on my truck probably some time next week or the week after

 

I have the undercover flex. It's low profile and keeps water out fairly well. The dealership threw it in to sweeten the deal so I can't complain, but I wouldn't recommend it. The mounting track attaches to the cargo rails and covers them completely from front to rear, so I'd have to completely remove them to use the tie down cleats.

 

I have the rugged cover hard cover tri fold, it has two small LED lights, never thought how handy those lights would be till using them a couple times, cover does great keeping water out of bed.

 

I have the undercover lux se. It was like $1300 shipped. Just installed it today and no really complaints.

 

Appreciate all the input. Ended up ordering the Extang Encore (perfer the tri-fold design) also got a bed rug to complete the package. Think I got a fair deal from Tonneua Covers World.

I'll be pulling the trigger on the Revolver x2 asap.
I did a lot of research and I like it for several reasons including security and you can open it all the way up and still see out of the back window and use almost the entire bed.

I don't like the fixed panel of the oem cover, and other hard covers I saw flipped up and blocked the rear window completely.

Only drawback for me on the Revolver is the vinyl top, I'm not crazy about that, but at least it can't be cut open to access what in the bed

do you know how strong those are? Think it'll be able to handle snow?

 

They are strong but I live in TX so never tested any snow.

 

I like my OEM tri-fold. It keeps about 85% of rain water out.

 

How easy is it to take all the way out
When I was at the dealer I though it had a push thing to release it but just watched a video that showed needing a wrench or something. Also how heavy is it

 

it has a bolt to hold it down on the last fold. Take that one bolt off and the whole thing lifts off. Its heavy, but avg sized man can handle it alone

 

I just installed a bakflip F1 yesterday. It took a little more than an hour, no drilling, tools needed were a Philips screwdriver and socket with 30 torx head.

The directions were fairly good, although certain sections weren't entirely clear. But there's not that many parts so it's somewhat easy to figure things out with the various pieces identified.

I really like the look, and wife also gave it a thumbs up. I note that there have been many comments about it, or them, not be entirely watertight. Well I guess one way to look at it is that it's far less water with, than without a tri/-fold cover.
