Anyone have a bed cover on their truck? If so what kind and how do you like it? I'm look at a roll back cover my self, probably a Pace Edwards. Anyone know were I can get the best price?

Well I decided to order the Undercover. It is a hard cover that is super lite and lockable. It also locks the tailgate. It was a little cheaper then most of the roll back covers and a lot easyer to install.

Well it came in today. Took me about 45 min. to install (very easy) and it looks great. I am very pleased.

Rmudbugs,

I just put a BAKFLIP cover on my quadcab XLS. I also installed a Poplock on the tail gate, and it took me
about an hour and a half total install time. The BAKFLIP looks fantastic and the fit is excellent!

I
really like the fact that I can drive with it open in various stages or remove the cover in about a minute
and put it in the back seat. If you want I will take a few pics and post what it looks like on my Raider.

Chris

Chris:
Would love to see any pics of your bakflip cover. I was thinking of installing the ACCESS/Loredo brand, (had that on former truck). It's hard to compare which tonneau covers are the best.
Doess the bakflip roll up? and does it attach on the side with Velcro? Any leaks?.
You mention you can drive with it open in any position....that sounds like a good feature.

Thanks for any info.

Rick.

Rick,

Sorry for the delay I haven't checked the site in a few weeks. I will get a few shots this weekend and post
them. In answer to some of your questions it does not roll up it is divided into 3 sections which fold up. Have not had any leak issues except when I ran it thru the power wash and I think a few drops squeezed between the tail gate and
the top of the cover. I'm not too worried as I don't think I'll be driving in reverse at high speeds in pouring rain lol!!!

where are some recommended online sites to purchase the bed cover at? i am interested in getting one, i just bought an 08 raider yesterday, so i am wanting to get a bed cover for it, also looking for a set of black running boards for it, since the truck is solid black.

Depends on the kind of cover you are looking for.
Leer doesn't sell online but go to their website and print their coupon to save 40.00.
They work through franchise dealer installers.
In Houston, I'd look up Trux Superstore for a Leer cap. and get a quote in writing.
