Re: Hard Top Tonneau Cover... any good ones?

Not that my opinion matters here...but you should check out Retrax. It is the best rolltop cover made. Call Retrax direct and ask them if they have any factory "blems" for the Titan. You can save several hundred dollars this way. There was a similar post a few months ago on this same subject where I recomended calling them...unfortunatley at that time they did not have any for the Titan...but it couldn't hurt to find out now...they might have some.

This is what a $550 "blem" looks like on my buddies truck modified to fit with a toolbox


This is what a $600 "blem looks like on my truck

Re: Hard Top Tonneau Cover... any good ones?

I agree w/ Bear Hunter to get Retrax but unfortunately they rarely get a Titan Blem. Bear is lucky cause he's got a Ford which has been around for some time. We'll have our chance some day.

btw $789+ shipping direct. ask for Randy. very good service there.

Re: Hard Top Tonneau Cover... any good ones?

Just a note, I have the Undercover, and this probably applies to the Snug as well. Be sure to look closely at both sides and make sure it is lined up with the sides of the bed correctly. I put mine on real fast, and didn't pay attention, that it was every so slightly crooked. It ended up being to tight on one side and scratched the paint a bit where the lip of the plastic comes over the side. It's been corrected, and nothing that a little bit of rubbing compound won't fix. But just spend the extra 2 minutes to check it out when you install it. That you don't have anything rubbing.

Re: Hard Top Tonneau Cover... any good ones?

For those still in the market for a tonneau cover for the crew cab, I prefer the Undercover. I've had it for a year and it's worked out great. Being black plastic, I was concerned about fading. Not a problem. It can be installed by one person in 30 minutes or less. An available Utili-Track adapter is the way to go for ease of installation if you have the option. One caution: Don't grab it or haul it by the corners closest to the cab. You might hear a crackling sound because that is where it is most vulnerable to flexing. I bought mine online at AZ Trucks and all is well. Should have bought it as soon as it came out!

Re: Hard Top Tonneau Cover... any good ones?

I have an 08 King Cab Pro-4x with Utilitrack and I just installed an Undercover yesterday. This cover is a great cover that will definately last a long time. Very durable and fits like a glove. My fatehr has had one on his F-250 for quite a few years and it looks pretty much as brand new as mine. Seeing and using it first hand on his truck over the years made me not even have to think twice which cover I was going to get. Get a Undercover and you wont regret it.

My Undercover still looks new even after 2.5 years.

Re: Hard Top Tonneau Cover... any good ones?

I thought I would mention that both Retrax and Undercover have a model that can be installed with a toolbox. So, if you are thinking about getting a toolbox, you might want to make sure to get the right cover.
