hinged tonneau covers

kaoliver · #1 10-15-2008, 09:47 PM

I have been thinking about getting a hinged tonneau cover for my truck. I want one that can also be rolled up for full bed access when its needed. I have been looking at the Lund and Extang models. Anyone have one of these and what are your thoughts about quality and ease of use. Also who has the cheapest online prices for these models.

Thanks in advance for your replies.

I know the two products you mentioned are soft fold ups, but Bak Industries makes a product called BakFlip. It is a hard tonneau cover that is hinged and folds up in sections. While it doesn't "roll up" per se, you can fold it all the way up and it stays up against the back window; giving you full access to the bed.
I had one on my Nissan that I traded in for the new F150. Loved it. Drove with it fully up, partially folded and closed up. Never had a problem with it.
Putting a new one on the Ford before we do our hunting trip in WV next month.

Soft covers (there's lots of them): Look at Extang, Truxedo, Access Cover. Each brand has various models.

Hard covers: Extang Solid Fold, FoldACover, and yes, Bakflip, but you should know that Bakflip covers have a history of problems, even their new G2 model.

I just put a Extang on my new 08 S-Cab. It went together in about 30 minutes. I like them because them roll up or lift up for access. You also can remove the Extang in about 2 minutes. All you have to do is pop the shocks off, lift and slide to the side. The hinge comes right apart.

I would get a roll up style. I had a pace edwards cover and i loved it. plus if anyone try's to stick knife though it there going to find it really hard to get passed the aluminum rib

Who needs that much velcro?

Why would anyone need that much velcro? These guys sell it by the roll http://www.liangdianup.com/miscellaneous_1.htm and is
hook and look and velcro the same thing?

Lund and Extang are good. You might also give Truxedo and Agri-Cover a glance over.
