Tonneau recommendations

Hello Folks!
I would love to hear your opinions on tonneau covers that work for your TV and 5th wheel. I would love to keep stuff secure from sight when disconnected, but be able to connect to the rig without risk of losing the cover on the road etc. Any favorites out there?

Thanks so much!

  • I use a TonnoPro Lowroll and I like it a lot, especially considering it's one of the least expensive ones available. I like the tri-fold ones too, but the one that I had blocked my view of the hitch.

  • The Extang Trifecta is a Tri-Fold cover and was great on my last truck. It could be opened when you wanted to use the hitch and it still covered the top 1/3 where we kept the genny.
  • I've had a Truxedo since 2002. Rebuilt it twice with new tonneau and Velcro and it still works great.
  • Beenmusing a Fold A Cover for 11 years on two different trucks. Works great, lockable, and 90% water resistant.
  • Another vote for Truxedo. I don't leave anything under my cover that I want stolen. It keeps my hitch dry also. I did have to cut the handle a little so it would clear the cover. I bought mine used on Craigslist.
  • Extang Trifecta for me. Have had one on my last 3 trucks and will have one again on the next truck. Don't know if it would work for a 5er application, though.
  • I use a Truxedo Lo Pro QT. It's a soft roll up cover. I just roll it up just behind the cab when towing. Roll it out in seconds once I drop the 5th wheel.
    I had a trifold cover but my Morryde pinbox would hit it when connected. I sold it and bought the Truxedo.
  • I use a Pace Edwards full metal jackrabbit. Works great. Only problem is you may have to lower your hitch a notch or two for the cover to clear the hitch.
