[@MerpSquirrel]

My I ask what rims and tires you have on this truck? I would really like to purchase that setup.

[@Crazyman23]

One side note with the snap tarps. If you look at them you will see a t on one side. Takes time but you can slide every snap off flip them around and will allow for a better fit for the seasons. Also if you notice truck hero owns alot of things. From extang, undercover and bak to husky, Are, nfab and rough country of I rememer right.

[@donwon7484]

First let me say I appreciate what y’all are doing with both AT and AM thank you now my question is I have a 2002 f150 crew I understand it has age on it but it has been really good to me and I’m trying to return the favor but it is hard to find aftermarket parts for her like a good hard top cover do you have any suggestions of how I can get what I need for her?

[@texassingh1027]

Thanks so much ... just bought my first F150

[@MonsieurPointdujour]

Texas Singh I brought a rough country tri fold hard cover and had to send it back because it vibrates/ shakes to much when I’m driving and it was properly installed?...does the flex tonneau shakes or makes noises when installed?

[@DylanC828]

Will definitely be getting the trifold over the others. IMO it’s the only one without any real cons, because in my experience if you need the whole bed above the top of the box then your vision through the back window is already gone, and at that point the cover is now protecting your window from something sliding forward and smashing it. Example being loading a quad, I’ve seen many a rear window bite the dust when one crashed into the glass, but the cover would prevent that from happening.

[@Mixwell1983]

Didnt really think about it till now but you're right with the visibility part being gone if you have something youre moving sitting taller than the bed rails.

[@nitrodoc]

The con is that you can't see out your back window when you have something in the bed and it's blocking the rear window completely.

[@shawnallgood1346]

If you're not too limited on your budget then you may want to check out Diamondbackcovers.com, especially if loading/hauling an ATV, a SxS, or other heavy materials on top of your cover. Their HD model holds up to 1600lbs, plus they have two different styles of cab guards or a headache rack for rear window protection. Just about every component comes with a limited lifetime warranty - for the original owner - but the black coating has a 3 year warranty if you choose that option. And the best part...they are crafted and built in the USA!!

[@johndaddabbo9383]

The BIG Con is that the Tri-Fold design is the one design for which you cannot then add a Bed Rack. So a HUGE con for many of us.

[@atl3630]

But if something slams into your cover vs. the window, wouldn't it damage the cover? Given the cover is $800, might be better to break the window.

[@sixosixo]

I had a Undercover hard cover on my F150 for 8 years. It was flawless. Try having a guy or two stand on these covers. The Undercover can hold multiple standing on it. The only downside, as you mentioned, is you need to think in advance if you need to haul something big. I used to take mine off by myself before hauling dirt bikes. It was easy.

[@glycerine3065]

You don't need a knife to open a snap on cover... Simply un-snap it!

[@johnpendasulo6552]

I've had a Truxedo TruxPort for about 10 years on my Ranger Edge that is held in place with Velcro on both sides of the bed. It is going with my truck when I sell it and still looks good with no tears and works fine. No snaps and the tensioner keeps it tight hot or cold. It has been garaged about 50% of the time. Will be adding one to my new Ranger. No one has ever cut it to look at what I have under it but it keeps items covered and dry when it is needed. Practical and inexpensive for my needs and saves fuel.

[@alexhulinsky7954]

I know quite a few people with trucks, and I've never heard of anyone getting their bed cover cut. I also have the Truxport. Works good!

[@paulwinterscheidt]

One con with the retractable cover is cold climates where ice forms. Unless it's rolled up completely dry, ice inevitably forms in the box and jams it all up.

[@RavancheII]

I have a soft tri fold tonneau on my Raptor, I use mine to cut down on the air drag in the bed, and to keep the groceries dry. I don't keep anything in my bed that is going to make a thief happy, unless they like reusable shopping bags. 🤣 Eventually at some point I want to get a hard shell Leer topper so that I can make it more camper friendly until I find the right pull behind camper. Great reviews though, thanks as always. Appreciate you!

[@Youtubeuser1aa]

Does your mileage actually improve? You might want to try it without.

[@27dmarshall]

The BakFlip MX4 (Tri-Fold) allows you to shut the tail gate before closing bed cover....OR after closing the bed cover...it doesn't matter. Very nice feature!

[@rhugh02]

Yes! The Bakflip MX4 is the best choice. Imo

[@clintalgrim2961]

BackFlip is highly vulnerable to hail damage, have had damage to 2 of them. Pretty expensive cover to look that bad from small hail storm.

[@randybowen3312]

I live in the north in BC Canada. I had a tri fold on my F 150. It was nice for security and keeping things safe and dry. The problem I have and you didn't mention with all of the one the had the rubber part that runs along the top of the box. Mine would freeze and get stuck. I have had 3 out of the 5 styles you talked about over the years. Foe me it's a canapy for where I live in the winter. Good video overall.

[@rbhe357]

Take a look at the WeatherTech. Its made by Lomax who sells it for a bit cheaper. Almost flush with the bed rail, trifold aluminum but it has another quick release under the front panel. Pull that and the whole thing comes off in a few seconds.

[@americantrucks]

Good stuff as well! -Justin

[@mathbrown9099]

Hey, nice young man, you forgot the problem for those of us in the rain, until just at the end. The only cover that works against water, mildew, dampness; tonneau hard cover. It looks like the barricade may solve the rain issue-but for it’s main limitation of lost usage due to stowage.

[@ghask4318]

Diamondback cover is the best. I’ve had it on my 2013 F150. The cover is bullet proof

[@shawnallgood1346]

I second that.

[@stevenicholas4113]

Had an undercover 1piece on my Titan, had it put on to go on a trip. Drove from Pa to Tennessee. By the time I got there the cover rubbed the paint off on the bedside. Then 3 times in the next 10 years had the rivets pop. I fixed it twice the third time I scraped it. Will never buy another!

[@danh8302]

The Peragon looks to be the best folding option I have seen. Haven’t used one yet but the ease of removal and not blocking your back window makes it a lot more appealing than a Tri-fold and for the same price.

[@jakeccr]

I have the rolling hard cover on my ram, it's pricy but it's one of the only upgrades i've done on my truck and it was worth it

[@Elnegro8527]

Believe the soft roll-up cover best suits me doesn't take away from your bed and doesn't cover your back glass

[@TheDylanPlayer14]

We always use a soft rolling cover from truxedo. It keeps stuff protected from rain and flying out in the wind. It also rolls completely out of the way allowing use of the whole bed.

[@americantrucks]

Thanks for the feedback Dylan! -Justin

[@williamgates4399]

Another con for the barricade retractable is it covers up the bed post holes used for tie downs. I have the hard rollup model from TruXedo Sentry and love it.

[@americantrucks]

Great tip! -Justin

[@XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXXxXxxccx]

I just bought a 2022 F150 super cab and I deafly like the trifold cover and I’m most likely going to buy it

Unfortunately we don't sell any at this time. -Justin

[@07slowbalt]

Getting a tri fold put on tomorrow through line-x. Come to find out their house brand "Truck Gear" is a rebranded bakflip mx4. Comes at the same price point but includes a "LIFETIME" warranty. Its hard aluminum with a plastic finish texture. You can pay a bill more and get one sprayed with line-x if you choose too but i did not. Loved the comparison. It just came too late as i just made my purchase literally early today. No regrets still.

[@NOSfusion]

How about after a year, any regrets?

[@07slowbalt]

@@NOSfusion Honestly i love my truck gear trifold and would buy another for my next truck. It hasnt faded, gaskets havent warped and nothing has broke in over a year. If i had to knock anything at all and its just the nature of a trifold is it will have a small water leak by your tailgate. The 2 aluminum rails that run down each side of the bed can accumulate a little water and its design dumps them at your tailgate. This isnt to alarm you or should it scare you away from buying one. I would say during a rainstorm that amount would equate to a few teaspoons per side. I plan on soldering two bungs in or find a screw in fitting and just run a small hose down each side, super simple fix but isnt really needed. Everything else stays 99% dry. Ive used it in the upright position to move furniture, get a load of dirt, and works really good. Again the lifetime warranty is a no brainer when your choosing to drop $900+ on one of these. Dont take my word for it and go to a line-x store and look at one. Roll up ones get water in the hinges that freeze in the winter and jack knife, others have felt backing that collect dirt, and some take up way too much bed space. I would highly recommend this truck gear and its not just me being biased.

[@NOSfusion]

07slowbalt Wow. Thank you for the thorough write up. I’m between the Diamondback SE or the Bakflip MX4 Tri-fold. Leaning towards the MX4 because it folds out of the way completely. I think you just sold me on a tri-fold. Have a good one, thanks again

[@07slowbalt]

@@NOSfusion no problem at all. Just an fyi the truck gear is 100% identical to the backflip mx4 other than a different badge. Line-x told me this and i confirmed it since my brother has a mx4 on his gmc. Just keep in mind the mx4 does NOT come with a lifetime warranty whereas the truck gear does.

[@NOSfusion]

07slowbalt Okay cool. I’ll look up the line-x one

[@martyi398]

I’ve owned the hard tonneau undercover 10 years previous truck, great cover as mentioned if you plan to leave on the truck, although it’s a two person job getting it on or off, my wife did not enjoy helping either! lol

[@BMack37]

The solid cover was great back in the day before locking tailgates because you couldn't open the tailgate but with new locking tailgates the tri-fold and rolling are better for security. The locks on the solid covers are very much for show, just push up and it will pop open. Because they overhang, there is plenty of a lip to get your palm under to push it up...now let's be honest, getting the stuff out of sight is the biggest deal because no criminal is going to go and pop open every cover in a parking lot. The retractable cover is definitely the most secure, that seems like it would be pretty hard to break into, I wanted that but I frequently use the whole bed under my trifold. One nice thing about that is sometime you can open it all the way then let it rest on what you're hauling instead of blocking the back glass. Great video btw, lots of options out there and not a lot of side-by-side comparisons.

[@therealpimpskillet]

You cannont get the solid cover up on mine at all. Tail gate won't drop if you set the latch height correctly.

[@BMack37]

@@therealpimpskillet you don't need to drop the tailgate. You just grab the overhanging lip of the cover with your palm and push up.

[@Na0uta]

Personally I like the soft roll up covers. They don't show it in the video since it's really similar to the first one. But I don't keep stuff back there, at least not long enough to worry about. And it's pretty out of the way when rolled up. Velcro to put down easy. Bars under it for support of light ish stuff. If you put a plank of wood up there you can hold all kinds of things when tied down.

[@jmdavidson1420]

With the last cover, all you'll need is a few ratchet straps and you'll be good to go. I've had it on my '15 for 2 year's now and have strapped all types of building material's to it, as well as dressers and it's still solid. Only thing he did not mention is that if you have a feature on your truck to where you can pop your tailgate from your keyless entry or from your key fob, the edge of the cover wrap's over the edge of the tailgate, so that'll be a no go.

[@alextrainor2552]

Pro of the soft roll up, with velcro, is full use of bed with no rear view block

[@drumtum81]

I've had two trifolds (BakFlip g2 & mx4) and although no cover is perfect, these are pretty hard to beat

[@danh8302]

Have you looked at a peragon folding cover? That is what I’m looking at.

[@sergeysmelnik]

Very good and informative video. I will have a new F150 soon so this was very interesting. The 3 piece one is my favorite so far.

[@TexWillis]

Can somebody make a hard cover (like the last one in this video) with maybe a scissor lift on each side so that the cover goes straight up uniformly? That sure would be nice for picking up a dresser or other large piece of furniture.

[@Pilot545]

I personally have the Bakflip F1 trifold tonneau for my 2018 F150 Platinum. Went with this particular one because you can open and close it without opening the tailgate. Hands down the BEST tri fold cover (also FRP).

[@tylerking93]

Michael Godsey if you can open it without opening the tailgate, doesn’t that mean it’s not secure against thieves?

[@rszzzfhobertbguysuinsgkfro3301]

FYI, as I’m sure you may already know the revolver X cover is not waterproof, although its a nice option I would not recommend. Mine leaks on every rain storm and I’ve even gotten some snow inside. Tony- In Chicago

Thanks for the honest feedback Tony- although I worry there is something wrong with the install if you're getting rain (and snow!?) inside your bed. -Justin

[@NordicViking88]

All have there perks and there down sides i've had a cheap soft roller in the past and hate having very little security along with my tailgate didn't lock on my 2011 tacoma at all but don't want the storage in my bed to take a hit either and still want to maintain vizibility. Im planning on buying the Sentry Tonneau cover from Truxedo for my 2018 F150 for best of everything except you loose the ability to open it half way. Just need to get the wife on board and get the price right like the 15-20% sales that come this time of year right after tax season is over.

[@dearbulls]

Undercover se is still the king. I have a painted lux version of the SE and loving it still. And I agree with the con for large item. However, the SE is very strong, you can walk over it or even haul an ATV on it. So you can strap down large item over it

[@SinnerSince1962]

If you are hauling something in the back and it slides forward and hits the rolled up cover, you’re screwed. It will bend it

[@victorfrancofalcon9217]

Diamond back HD is the best cover

[@NOSfusion]

I’m really surprised it wasn’t in this lineup.

[@MinnesotaMathew]

very useful video, my previous trucks all were used and came with covers I kept using. This is my first foray into picking out a cover myself and this video helped. thanks.

[@americantrucks]

Awesome Matt- glad we could help! -Justin

[@JKZ103]

Another thing and a reason I went with the soft cover for my racetruck is weight. I wanted a cover but didn't want to add alot of weight. My trifold on my platinum is heavy but awesome! the soft cover only weighs about 10 lbs... just something else to think about. Great video

[@shitloveaduck]

I know you like the tri-fold the most and I do as well but I don’t like the fact it blocks my rearward vision. I am perfectly capable of driving with mirrors only and yes there is a backup camera in reverse, but the backup cam does not function while going forward (I know a few exceptions are starting to pop up). There is a benefit of the middle rear view mirror when going forward as well. Not everyone (50 % maybe?) have little to no skills with using their rear view mirrors only. That negates the benefit of the flip up being all the way forward. So the other choices are fine. I do have a quadfold cover in a backflip MX4, still don’t like the vision issue but love that I can close the tailgate without having to open the lid each time. I use my truck box at the back without opening the cover 80% of the time. I prefer their rod system when the cover is open because it has a simple slide adjustment keeping it against the cab on the rubber bump stops. Just a more secure position. I live in southern Alberta Canada where we can have 75 mph crosswinds that extra step of being secured against the cab is significant here. I know you have to sell your product, it is your job, but there is nothing (well maybe patents) stopping you from putting the feedback to your supplier to have the things incorporated into your products. I also have a Truxedo Truxport on my other truck. It is Qw years old and the seams are starting to fail. It has been a truck that is garaged. It has 208,000 km (165,000 miles?) on it. I have been lucky there have been no break ins with that cover but when I park overnight with fishing gear in the back, I worry about break ins. I totally agree that hard covers are the way to go. Good luck with the covers you sell and all the best to ya! Thanks for the video.

[@urville]

when you need to haul something that's higher than your truck bed, it will block your rear vision even when you have a rolling one, so regardless you will have an impaired vision but will a full use or the bed with the trifold

[@66skate]

The Extang Classic Platinum and similar Black Max where sadly both discontinued. A shame because they were reasonably priced, durable, I had one for 10 years and it was still nice. The best thing was they were 99% water tight unlike many of the very costly products on the market now.

I just installed the GMC “REV” branded BakFlip Revolver X2 on my 2500HD; snagged it for $866 shipped to my dealer. I definitely don’t expect it to be as strong and certainly not as weather proof as a hard cover (or cap), but it’s a good compromise between accessibility, looks, and ease of use.

[@williamgates4399]

On the Barricade cover, the biggest draw back is you loose your bed stake usage if need to tie down anything. I do like the tri-fold, but then again you loose part of your tie advantage. I do like soft roll-up, but the knife issue is always a concern. I have had soft roll-up on all my trucks and never once had an issue with security.

[@TheLouisianan]

I think it depends on where you go. Having lived in New Orleans, I know people that had their window broken out so someone could steal a $5 bill in their center console. I don't keep things in my bed, especially expensive things so in a high crime area I'd probably keep it rolled up so thieves don't knife my cover for nothing. Maybe meth heads are the most dangerous things outside of cities and hopefully they spend their money for more meth instead of a pocket knife lol.

[@tommurphy6058]

How about reviewing the diamondback cover it seemed bulletproof

[@themilokid]

If you live in a desert environment the material on the rolling cover will dry out and peel off after about a year or so. When that happens, the rolling cover becomes useless because the material is holding the first panel to the rest of the cover.

And if you live in a tundra like MN you cant get the retractable because they fill with ice and will not function at all.

It would fail the "knife" test but to be fair I wonder how the trifold cover would stand up to a crowbar? I'm not a criminal but knives can be a felony yet it's always legal to carry a crowbar. It's probably a good compromise choice for many people.

[@treydrier3169]

A knife is easy because you can put in your pocket and take it anywhere, a crowbar you have to carry which can be a hassle.

What about hauling a gooseneck horse trailer?

[@americantrucks]

Alot of people prefer a roller or retractable option for that. -Justin

[@j_m2145]

What’s that trucks wheel/tire/lift setup? Looks real sharp

[@americantrucks]

Stock on a set of wider 33s! -Zach

[@dominickandrade1288]

I like the barricade slide. Do you if it has leaking issues

[@timbutcher1292]

Great looking truck. What are the lift/wheel details?

[@alexrodriguez6437]

Tim Butcher I was wondering the same. It might be a level kit with 33.

[@johnprice4390]

Have you looked at the Diamondback and or Renegade covers. Which one did you like

[@agontop1]

Excellent info. Great production. Well laid out. Great f*@$&ng video dude. thanks for doing this for us

[@americantrucks]

Thanks for the love! We always appreciate it. -Zach

Undercover elite..looks awesome

[@jacobbotden5641]

I got a tri-fold cover and wouldn't go back. I do regret getting one with thin aluminum it's now corroded through and has lots of dents in it. the one big con with fiberglass hard tops is you have to have two people to remove it. I would never go back for that specific reason

[@OnePointLander]

is there a tri fold that can open near the window to access internal tool boxes?

[@enfinite05]

i want that truck

[@bryantjones8039]

Thanks for the great video. On the second cover, can you drive with it folded all the way up safely?

[@tuankhanh1994]

Good Job

[@oscarramirez9768]
