    I'm considering a tonneau cover for my '17 Off Road. I'll color match it unless I can get one painted to match at a reasonable price. My color is silver sky metallic (light silver). I will probably go with a solid hard top lid. Sure like to see some pics to help with the decision. Appreciate any help, pics and suggestions especially on brands, quality, etc.. THANKS!

    I have the Undercover Ridgelander. I love it, quality product, heavy duty and waterproof. I would definitely recommend it........good luck on your decision.

    @Maxcustody On the Undercover website it says the Ridgelander can support up to 250lbs evenly distrbuted... have you opened the tonneau with anything on the rack before? I'm wondering if the struts will stay open with a couple bikes or even a RTT on it.

    I called and talked with the manufacturer several times before I purchased it...........bikes no problem. RTT= no, it is too heavy and struts wont support it. i am looking at a cargoglide or bedslide to solve that problem.

    Like, so many.
    I like the tri folds. I actually like the factory one a lot. It's super easy to open. I have a Rugged Cover. It does a good job keeping water out, but it takes a little more work to open.

    I just installed the Rugged Liner Premium today. I noticed two noticable gaps on each corner at the front of the bed. Any fixes?

    I did notice that. I rained heavily in my area two weeks ago and it did leak through those gaps. I have weather window seal sitting around, that I was going to in-between the gaps. The extang also leaks.
