Copper KR = what color tonneau?

I'm pretty sure I want the TruXedoŽ Lo Pro, but what color?

I think either Black or Buckskin, leaning towards Buckskin.

Does anyone else think the Buckskin will match up with the Arizona Beige?

Maybe I'm color blind.....

FYI, I was told to stay with either black or EXACT color match to the body, not the accent color. I have seen a fiberglass tonneau color matched to the arizona beige and it looks silly. I would stick to black personally.
Great color choice!
Good Luck

It positively does NOT look silly.

I have had a Chestnut KR with Arizona hard tonneau and the Lariat in a similar color scheme.

I was very pleased with them.....and judging by the amount of compliments I got...so were lots of other people !!

If you want photos let me know and I can e mail you lots !!

Sorry Lent, didn't mean to get under your skin. I was simply stating my opinion. To each their own.

I love that copper color, too bad it was not a color for the Lariat.

These are always tough choices because nobody stocks them and you can't compare them easily. If you don't mind spending a little money on shipping, order both black and buckskin (most places have free shipping to you), take them out of the box, and keep the one you like. Then spend the shipping money to send the other back. I did this with my step bars. I thought I wanted silver, but ordered both black and silver and ended up keeping the black. You will be looking at it everyday - get the one that you think looks best.

You didn't get 'under my skin'.
I'm too long in the tooth to let a comment about color do that.

I did feel that your choice of the word "Silly" was inappropriate though.

You COULD have offended someone who had made that same choice...and we HAVE seen numerous vehicles with that color combination on the forums.

At the time you could have said something like ...
"In my opinion the color combination isn't right".

But not "Silly" !!

I kept going back and forth about which color to use also. Recently I installed a charcoal blue ARE LSII on mine, and am very pleased. About 2 weeks ago I saw an Estate Green KR with the AZ Beige ARE LSII on top....I'm happy I stuck with the main color now that I saw it.

Then again, don't forget Ford put out a soft tonneau in the AZ Beige with KR logos on it.....

Choose the color you like best, either way the truck will look awesome!
