Once&For all - Tonneau - Best 1?

[burntomaro]

Most versatile and best looking. Made in the good ol USA. Can be removed to make use of the full cab. No leaks.

Peragon

Depends what you mean by that. If you're talking about the "cargo rails" that mount above the top of the bed sides, then it will indeed interfere with most of the cover systems. If you're talking about the "utility rails" that mount to the holes on the inside of the bed sides, then it definitey is not a problem with the Ram trifold cover and I don't see how it is likely an issue in most of the other options.

I think the OP was referring to the utility rails mounted inside the bed sides, so there should be no interference based on your experience.

For me the best tonneau cover
Under cover armor flex
The best out there guarantee

Looks similar to the MX4, but I *do* like the Line-X coating it has on it. Pretty expensive but looks like a good'n.

Those look really nice. My only concern would be the fold-down design at the hinges potentially interfering with cargo. Looks like it folds down more toward the front of the bed so maybe it's not a big deal. But if you had a pretty full bed, would it be able to open without unloading or moving the cargo first?

BTW, great looking setup.

Bakflip MX 4 on mine. I really like it.

Nice! Here is my G2...looks very similar but a little lighter weight, not quite as heavy-duty.

 

[AALiVEE]

Wow, great response guys! I have a "few" things to really think about, but i think i know which way it is leaning, BAKflip G2 or MX4, Peragon or the Under Cover Armour Flex are all sure looking like some solid choices, i still also consider the Pace-Edwards hard-roll-in as i know since my last truck..
But i need a hands on before i can decide anything.
Thanks again!

Saw a G2 last night had a lot of "dings" I don't know the story behind them.

Extang Exceed also has a $100 rebate. It is a trifold but has "rag top" cover so it does not have a trifold appearance.

Backflip MX4 can support 400 lbs evenly distributed. Price was $1064 installed.

Backflip MX4 can support 400 lbs evenly distributed. Price was $1064 installed.

Bakflip G2 can support 300 lbs evenly distributed, so 25% less. I paid $850 for mine, plus tax, installed it myself.

 

[Wakesnowb]

Anyone know how many lbs the Lomax cover can hold? I am hoping it will hold up to the weight of a lot of snow piled on top...

Best tonneau money can buy is Bakflip. Mx4

 

[tdager]

Check out the newest Bakflip. Mx4. I just put one on. Excellent

I LOVE my MX4.

 

[Str8Ripon]

I second the Lomax. I have the "black urethane" version and it looks/works great. If you don't mind losing a foot of your truck bed something like the GatorTrax seems pretty nice, but I bought the truck for the bed so I didn't want to lose any space.

Happen to have any pictures of it on your truck? I’m intrigued by the finish but not many pictures available since it came out.

Gatortrax I've had it about a year, easy install, ease of use, and keeps the bed dry. It's also lockable, but you can lower the tailgate when it's locked if you like.

 

[Scott_65]

Diamondback, versatile and full weather protection and total security. Not cheap, but you get what you pay for.

 

[Seaeco]

I'm really liking my Truxedo Sentry CT. It is hard roll-up and is aluminum bonded to a convertible top type fabric. I didn't want anything that would show dents or scratches or get really hot to the touch in summer. I also wanted to be able to lay a shotgun on it without worrying about scratching the finish of the gun.

I second this cover and just installed it.

If Security and Durability are factors in determining #1.

Retrax Pro MX.

I just bought one of these from Truck Alterations at a great discount, should be delivered today. I was interested in the MX4 but saw too many complaints about leaks, plus I like the durability and Line-X coating as well.
