I showed off my wife’s new truck. Since then, we got a Armor Flex Tonneau Cover cover and running boards. We absolutely love the cover. For us, it’s perfect.
We considered the motorize ones, but our purchasing dealer told us the roll up ones, especially the motorized ones, take a lot of front bed space up. On smaller truck beds, we’d loose too much of the bed space.
Considering our new truck is smaller, we wanted to keep as much bed space as possible, and the tri-fold flip one seemed to be the best fit for us. It’s easy to reach the cable releases on each section to open the bed up all the way, or partial.
Actually, we have found, since we’ve purchased it, we don’t open the cover at all. I put a large storage tote in the bed to put stuff in so it won’t slide around so much, and we have several collapsible grocery boxes for smaller stuff. A simple bungee cord across the back, and things don’t move around at all. Yea… it really is a glorified truck now.
Did I say, we absolutely love this cover!
Here’s the cover the day we bought it.
When the tail gait is up, the cover cannot be opened. The tail gait must be down. So if your tail gait has a lock on it, then keep the tail gait locked and the contents are secured – as much as can be.
There is a release cable on each panel.
First panel:
Second panel:
These supports hold the cover in place. The dealer told me they could be opened like this up to 70 mph. Any faster and it should be closed.
How is this it installed:
And did I say, we love this cover!
