Looking for member's opinions on the different covers for pickup beds; given that I'll be taking this truck to the track and would like security for overnight parking at motels.
If you like yours post a picture! Thanks. Options: 1. Complete cover that lifts up and is held up with gas shocks 2. Vinyl cover that folds towards the front to access the PU bed 3. Vinal cover that is stretched over a frame 4. ? Thanks. |

That's the one I have for all the reasons stated above, mostly the price / security tradeoff. One disadvantage is that it kind of uses up the last 10 inches or so by the cab for the mechanism, but there's a way to install it that minimizes this. None of the covers are said to be water-tight, but I'd say this one is less water-tight than the fiberlgass cover with gas struts, if that's important to you. |
