2014+ Truck Bed / Tonneau Covers


Recommended Posts

Returned my rough country hard tri fold

few things I did not like about it. 

 

Hinges on top and exposed

rubber seal on both sides are exposed all down the side Florida heat don’t know how that would hold up. 

 

Middle panel sat sat higher than back and front panel due to no clamps in the middle 

 

panels are shiny I would prefer mat black panels. 

 

Seems this is is made from another company for rough country and the quality is not there compared to the extang

 

Yes price is great 599 feee shipping and no tax but I was just not happy with it

If it was super shiny, it's probably made with FRP (fiberglass reinforced plastic) panels which is probably not the most desired these days.  Aluminum panels with the LINE-X coating (Truck Gear LXP) is probably the best followed by aluminum panels with a paint powder coat.

I've had the Rough Country hard tri-fold on for about a year with no issues but I would most likely not purchase another one due to the previous comments and it only has 4 clamping points at each corner.  I was worried as I drive nearly 150 miles a day on highway for work and thought it would fly off.  Fortunately it has held tight.

 I just worry about it not holding up to the elements here in Florida during the summer it rains every day with the hinges exposed  i’d have to worry about Corrosion

 

Same thing with the rubber seal down the sides the sun here in Florida is very strong and I’d worry about the rubber not holding up to the heat

The Armor Flex is not totally coated with LINE-X.  The panel closest to the cab is not coated.  Armor Flex has a 5-year warranty.  The Truck Gear (by LINE-X) cover has all of the panels coated with LINE-X and comes with a lifetime warranty.

The lxp tonneau cover has the line x thats  the I’m getting next week?

Do the truck gear covers flip up to the cab, and can you close the tailgate with the cover closed? I can't find the answer on their website.

Yes, to both.

I just find it odd that there are no YouTube videos any wear on them or many people that own them and they cost 1200, most expensive covers. I planned on getting the undercover armour flex which is also covered in line x.
