Tonneau cover for my new PB

[Chrispyj150FX4]

I have had a backflip G2 on my old truck, now have a Leer HF350 M on my Powerboost and in between I had a Rugged branded hard folder on the Ford for awhile. I think with a few differences most like the Rugged or the ones in the above photos are the same thing with minor tweaks and changes. 3 thick panels above bed level with at least 2 speed clamps at the tailgate, bolted on clamps by the bulkhead and thick seals all around. Some may have clamps at each panel.

For me The most water proof and durable was the 650 dollar Rugged Cover.

I didn't even seal the bulkhead and I never got a drop in that thing even in the car wash. The old G2 and my new Lear at 400 dollars more are more convenient but less weather tight. The G2 was ready for the scrap heap after about 9 years. Among other things Those wire releases let go of the latch mechanism inside after several years and no matter what I did I could not find a way to re attatch that would last more than a couple months before they let go again. I'd have to take tools and be ready to fiddle with the thing on road trips to keep it working correctly.

Leer holding up fine but I see weakpoints the cheap Rugged brand unit did not have.

The bare bones 2/3 bed access topmount covers with tailgate clamps on both sides are not very convenient but will get the job done for a long time. Lots of strong reviews on the Oedro on youtube. My Rugged unit will probably serve the F150 owner I gifted it to well for several more years. One of my favorite things about it is no rubber at the hinges. Just metal hinges with channels all the way across underneath to spit water out the sides past the seals. Ingenious design. That's for 600 bucks, meanwhile These 1K covers rely on all this extra degradable rubber between the panels.

cool deal. I saw the leer ones and leer makes the ones with the ford badge but I cannot get that one for my ride as they are for selected trucks, however the 2 in this post is what its down to.. I'm limited on cash
