Storage in bed for winter

Interested to see who keeps their tournneau covers on for the winter and those who don't, what is your method of storing in your bed?
Extra cab + 2 kids = no room

Thanks

I leave my tonneau on for the winter, and brush the snow off so it doesn't wear on the vinyl or add allot of weight. I keep a couple sandbags in the bed as well

 

Hard tonneau covers and articulated (hinged) covers generally do fine in the winter months. As said, you need to brush them off so that excess weight does no accumulate, but most modern designs are well suited to support the weight. If you have the old-fashioned 'snaps around the bed' design you need to be careful as the vinyl can become brittle in extreme cold, but nobody in their right mind would use a cover like that any more.

 

An pics of 2 kids in access cab?

 

yeah, this doesn't sound creepy at all.

 

OP I wouldn't send pics of your kids in an access cab, just saying.

I have a double cab and both kids + stuff fit really well back there. It's doable in an access cab but I bet it's tight. That being said, in the winter tonneau cover stays on

 

Wasn't meaning creepy

Just didn't see 2 car seats in access cab as two car seats in double cab seems tight enough.

Geez people these days

 

made me spit my orange chicken

Put one of these on and you won't have to brush the snow off no matter how deep it gets.

 

You should look at rollup tonneaus, I have a access lorado and its very convenient. The snap on drove me bananas

 

softopper?

 

Yeah it does take up a little room.. not much at all though, I still get my quad rolled all the way to the front.

he doesn't have the access cab
he said extra cab lol

 

Isn't access and extra same in third gen ?

It's not the four door double cab right ?

 

What's the diff between extra cab and access cab in third gen ?

Can you post a pic ?

 

yeah the sides are velcro, never had any issues with it. I know after years of use the velcro needs replaced. Not sure how big of a deal that is yet. Theirs a strip of foam between the rail and the bed to keep water out and i would say it'd take about 15 min to take the cover off. Just a couple bolts holding it on

 

My tonneau cover keeps rain out well. Can easily store stuff during the winter. I got the Truxedo Truxport Roll-Up Tonneau Cover pretty cheap too.

 

Don't forget to include your kids in the pic

 

Get a hard shell and bedryder system. Then you'll have more room in the cab...
