which tonneau...

Ok, I'm getting an Access Tonneau cover, however its between the Limited Edition and the Lorado Edition... and for the life of me, can't figure out what's the differences with them...

Any suggestions on which one I should get?

Thanks!

I have the Lorado cover. The Lorado is Access's low profile cover. It also comes with an element seal for the front of the bed (basically an L shaped foam seal that you apply to front of bed bofore installing cover). Also, in addition to the auto latch on the drivers side, it has a manual slider latch on passenger side.
Check out accesscover.com to get info on all their models.

Hope this helps.

The Limited Edition also has this latch. But I agree, they don't do a good job explaining what the difference is between the two mechanically.

I got the Limited Edition from realtruck.com - they sometimes have 'refurbished' for $60 or so less than new. Mine was one of those but looked brand new to me.

Initially, I was going to get the Undercover and finally decided that I'm not always able to anticipate when I'll need to remove it for hauling purposes. So I opted for the roll-up design. Otherwise, I like the idea of the undercover's material and design.

Another option

Here is another bed cover that I had on my other truck. It was awesome. Worked great and I had 0 problems with it. Just another option worth looking at.

More info

Here si some more info I posted on another forum. I ordered mine form www.cargogear.com Great company. Shipped pretty quick

Here is another bed cover worth looking at. It is not shiny black and when retracted it does not really take up too much of the bed. I had it on my last truck (2000 F-150) and I realy liked it. The downside is that it is not guaranteed to be waterproof. I really don't know any rollback cover that is though. The company shipped in a timely manner and I did install with a buddy. It is quite durable. It accordions into the truck bed and also is fully removable. It is held in place with two shocks at the front of the bed. It does not stand too tall above the bed rail and also does not cover the bed rail holes. It is also lockable for security. Just a thought for you to look at.
