Extang Trifecta - Replacement Tarp?

Some low life decided to cut up my Extang Trifecta today to see what I had inside the bed. Thankfully they decided not to take any of the ski equipment I had in there, but the cover itself is ruined.

Does anyone have a good source for Extang replacement tarps? I believe I have Trifecta model 44780, for the 2004-08 5.5ft bed. I've found a couple of suppliers searching around online with various prices, and while they're not as expensive as I had feared, I want to make sure I get something of good quality.

I did try to call Extang today to get their price, but they are closed. I'll have to call back in the morning.



Thanks in advance.
Brian

I would think that Extang is your best bet. Maybe you should consider an Extang Solid Fold. It works exactly like the Trifecta, but it's made of aluminum.

I called them today and they're willing to replace the vinyl for $100 + $20 shipping. At that price it's hard to justify purchasing a new tonneau cover. If it had cost a little more I would have thought about it more.

Extang's customer service is second to none.

A friend of mine had an Extang Full-Tilt on his 08 F-150 flareside, and one of the bows snapped and caused the cover to damn near rip off the bed. He called customer service, and they sent him all the replacement parts he needed at no charge.

I know a number of the guys at that company personally, from guys in manufacturing, to customer service and sales, to one of the company VP's. Great bunch of people at that company.

Extang is all that I'll put on my truck. I recommend them to friends, and have even bought their products for family members for their trucks.

Put my replacement tarp on this weekend. Took a bit longer than I anticipated, but taking the cover apart made me realize just how well engineered it really is. The $100 replacement cost was almost worth it for how much better the new top looks alone.
