A good budget is a gator or American tonneau. Both are Trifold soft covers. Usually when one isn't on sale the other is. And they are just like the Lund, rough country, or line-x tri fold soft covers only difference is the tag on them. Truck hero owns a ton of companies and names. From ARE truck caps to husky liners.
I just put a $350 Truxedo roll up on the last F350 8' bed and the same on the current F150 6.5' bed. Decent and rolls to 5-6" diameter if need be - which on the F350 was every time I pulled the 5th wheel. If it rips or someone cuts it, a replacement is still less then one of most of the others plus looks good for at least 6 -8 years(the one on the 3500 still looked good after 9 years). I can't believe how expensive these bed covers can get and really doubt some are worth that kind of hard earned cash
I bought a gator tri fold for my 23 zr2. 250.00. Fits great looks good. Does what I need it to do. I lease my trucks. I'm not investing 1500 plus in a cover.
Want a Spare tire cover with a halo third brake light.. What papa did for the F-150 XLT Lariat was build his own with pressure treated wood and heavy vynal then put crome rails on the sides for a lift off..
I have both a Bakflip MX4 on my 16 F150 and a Syneticusa on my 23 Raptor. MX4 seals break down over time, they do have great product support but I would not buy a trifold again as I use a truck more so for camping and dump runs. Very happy with my Syneticusa on my Raptor, installed a Yakima 4 bike rack and a fly rod rack on it. Very happy. I wish Bakflip would build a product that competes with Syneticusa/ReTrax.
I liked the video a lot. It shows (me) the customer that if I want something else than what yall sell yall are not going to try and beat me down and tell me yalls is so much better, but you will tell me what a little more or maybe a little less money can get you and maybe why you should or shouldn't go that route and not push your customer to get something to make you some more money and a little later after owning it. Me the customer can't say ," well it's not like we didn't try to get you or not get you to go another route....." I really like the way these 2 guys are honest to get out of the box as they say and really look at what else is out there and show us the quality.
I like my Retrax on my RAM, especially with the locking and hard top, but I do not like the loss of bed space and I still get some leaks, especially around my tailgate
Good luck with getting your money back. I had a similar situation last year, bought a 1,000 dollar stereo that shipped in 2 boxes, and I only got the one box with the speakers. I had to go back and forth with them for months with messages and pictures, before they finally refunded me. Sad part was after I got refunded I went and bought the stereo from a actual brick and mortar store, and I don’t believe the stereo to be worth price. It’s maybe worth 200 bucks on it’s best day. Wasn’t worth the time, money, or aggravation.
One great thing about Amazon is when they deliver, the driver snaps a pic of the items so you know exactly what they delivered and where they placed it. So, in the case of a missing box, simple to prove.
Enjoyed the video. Would love to see more but don’t want to bankrupt you all. Retrax sells an inexpensive gasket kit that seals the tailgate from water infiltration. It and the cover have kept my bed completely dry through plenty of frog chokers this year.
Should have bought a diamond back cover. You would have spent less money than you did for all of the other covers you bought from Amazon and it’s a better option
Maybe it’s because it’s manufacturer fault, but I think y’all installed the cheapie wrong, I have one for my Silverado (quad fold from Amazon) but it works great and nobody’s touched it
It definitely will. My retrax was purposely bought for hunting in Wyoming and it worked great. Kept stuff warmer and dry and still work even after some freezing
Jim Farley seems to be tired of dealerships, I know there are laws against manufacturers selling directly to customers. Do you think Jim Farley is out to get Ford dealers?
Whether you guys are genuinely looking at these for the first time, or you’re just pretending to (which I can’t understand why you would do that) it comes off extremely bias and fake. Just explain that Id we buy it with you, it takes away the risk of amazon fucking you over etc.. this whole, oh I didn’t receive the 3500$ bed cover, I sure done Hope Amazon is nice to little old me. Dang I suppose if y’all bought with us, y’all wouldn’t have to worry about thaaaaat! You guys seem great, really friendly and knowledgeable. Don’t shoot yourselfs in the foot by being fake, or if you’re not, just sounding fake makes me not want to trust or do business with you. Be yourselves, be honest, be authentic and I promise people will want to do business with you. Sorry if that’s coming off mean but I had to say something.
My local Bakflip dealer was cheaper than amazon’s price by $100 and had it next day. Can’t beat supporting local businesses.
This is completely out of the norm for content I typically watch. Finally the algorithm gives me something worth clicking
I prefer the budget soft cover, but I don't store anything in the bed, I just need to protect things from sun and rain during transport.
Cheap one just gonna protect it from the sun 😂😂

This was a cool video, I hope you guys can do more!

I like the BAK Revolver X4S cover, aluminum yet rolls up like a soft cover. Only think that sucks a bit is it's either open full or closed full.
I got the same thing! It is the BEST! It is clean looking, and does not stick above the bed and still has metal locking top so it secures everything!
I had a soft top Velcro on my 2014 for 9 years, until I traded it in a week ago. Never had an issue

The thing I hate about hard covers is… ::whips out plasma cutter::
Haha! I should’ve done that! 🤣😂
I have the decked system in my truck and I love it!

Need to do a side by side comparison of renegade and diamondback bed covers. Love the content.
The wire is nice because it’s easier to operate if you have a glove on than a knob or dial.
Glad I purchased the RETRAX Bed Cover. $2200.00 WELL SPENT If ya Ask Me???? Good Video Mr Watts.
I like my Retrax on my RAM, especially with the locking and hard top, but I do not like the loss of bed space and I still get some leaks, especially around my tailgate
Retrax Pro MX is by far my favorite I’ve ever owned
TC Customs proves once again why they are the best.
Have you tried a Peragon bed cover yet?

Oedro does however make some pretty good all weather for liners for the money.

Sometimes they snap a 📸!

Is this going on a Lariat or King Ranch ?
great job guys!!!!
Has TC had a customer that wanted Leitner Designs Bed rack ? Saw one in person recently and it looked grizzly bear proof
Bison covers is selling exactly same cover as Backflip at half of the price.
Should have bought a diamond back cover. You would have spent less money than you did for all of the other covers you bought from Amazon and it’s a better option
I don’t even own a truck and I’m in the uk this just a good video
Maybe it’s because it’s manufacturer fault, but I think y’all installed the cheapie wrong, I have one for my Silverado (quad fold from Amazon) but it works great and nobody’s touched it
Price of bedcovers are way out of line. I have had multiple different brands and they all seem kinda cheap to me.
Come on, you guys never ordered the last bed cover and put a box on the floor to make it look more real 😆 still love you guys tho
Seems smart but I think I could sleep through that if I find a comfy spot
Neither Retrax or roll N Lock will work on my truck up north where it snows
It definitely will. My retrax was purposely bought for hunting in Wyoming and it worked great. Kept stuff warmer and dry and still work even after some freezing
Ok video ( but a van will give you great place to look-up your tools and play toys)Thanks
I think it have been better comparing the top 3 brands VS the first 3 u see on Amazon .
Notably, those three brands had zero reviews.
My budget for my next car is ... $7,000.
I don’t really like bed covers, if I’m hauling something it’s not going to fit under the tarp.
Yeah, I'm getting a hard top for my Tacoma for sure
I'm guessing Mitchell's Yakima setup was $10k+.
Vinyl is affordable but dry rots.
I bought a Ford Brand tonneau Cover.. A Better/Easier fit
This seems like it'd be a really funny video if it was like normal RUclips's making this and not a business
Silliness

A raptor does not have the same bed as an f-50. Way shorter
There was no conclusion. Pointless video

I don't think you actually ordered that last bed cover haha
Definitely looks like “More money, more truck parts.” 😎🍷🛶
