Shipped nationwide from X-Treme Truck Outfitters in San Diego, California, and installed at our Kearny Mesa shop.
Types of Tonneau Cover
Folding covers fold forward in panels for partial or full bed access. Roll-up covers roll toward the cab and store in a compact bundle. Retractable covers slide into a canister at the bulkhead, so nothing has to be removed or stored. Hard covers offer more security and weather sealing; soft covers cost less and weigh less.
What to Consider
Think about how often you need full bed access, whether you haul tall loads, how much security you need, and whether you want the cover to stay on the truck permanently. Retractable and hard folding covers lock; most soft roll-ups do not.
Common Questions
- How much does a tonneau cover cost?
- Tonneau cover pricing depends on the type — soft roll-up, hard folding, or retractable — and your bed length. Call X-Treme Truck Outfitters at (858) 279-0240 for a free estimate on your truck.
- What is the difference between a hard and soft tonneau cover?
- Hard covers use rigid panels or slats, lock securely, and seal better against weather. Soft covers use vinyl over a frame, cost less, and weigh less, but offer less security. Choose hard if you leave valuables in the bed.
- Do tonneau covers improve gas mileage?
- Any improvement is small. Manufacturers and independent tests generally report low single-digit percentage gains at highway speed, and results vary by truck and driving style. Buy a tonneau for security and weather protection; treat any fuel saving as a bonus, not the reason.
- Can a tonneau cover be removed?
- Yes. Folding and roll-up covers can usually be removed by one or two people in a few minutes without tools. Retractable covers stay mounted but retract fully into their canister, so the bed is clear without removing anything.
