Another roll up Tonneau Cover options thread???

OnEWhEeLNEAL · #1 12-25-2008, 01:50 AM

I'm doing research and lord there are a ton of options which is very confusing. I know this topic has been beat to death on here so sorry for posting another Tonneau thread but from doing research I have some questions.

The only use for my bed will be to haul my motorcycle around so I need constant access to the bed without having to remove a hard cover. I'm looking for a cover that can be rolled up easily and have the cross bows rolled up with the cover. I've witnessed and helped some of my friends with their snap covers and they seem to be a PITA so I'm looking for something a little easier.

I see they have Velcro type hook and loop covers. Are these any good? For example, if it starts to rain while the cover is rolled up, will that mess up the hook and loop and screw up how tight it seals? Any known issues with the hook and loop or is it a good system? Does it keep water out when covering the bed?

I also saw the Lund Genesis Seal & Peel Tonneau cover which looks pretty cool except for the fact that to roll up the cover you have to remove the rear cross bar. I'm sure its not that difficult but its not something I want to have to deal with all the time. I'd like to just be able to roll it up and keep it moving. Are there any other seal & peel type covers where you don't have to remove a cross bar?

There are so many covers available that I'm just really confused. I initially was looking at the:

Truxedo Truxport

Truxedo Lo Pro QT

Extang Revolution

Extang Express

Access Roll Up

If you have any of these post up with what you think or if you have any suggestions, they'd be appreciated. And sorry to bring up the same topic that's been talked about repeatedly. I was looking to order a cover last week and have been on the fence because I don't want to buy something and then regret it later on. Thanks for any help

I am going to go with the Truxcedo Lo Pro QT myself.

I have a friend that has one on his f150 and it's very easy and looks pretty good!

Yeah after doing a lot of reading I havent seen many complaints about that cover so I think thats what Ima get too. Im tired of doing research so I guess I gotta just try something and see how it works. If I dont like it I'll sell it and buy something else I suppose.

Personally, I think the Access covers are made a little better than Truxedo. That isn't to say that Truxedo is bad, it just that Access seems to be a little better.

Looking at your list, I'd pick Access or Extang. The Revolution is new so I heard very little feedback on it.
