TRUCK BED COVERS SAVE GAS
A cover for your truck's bed channels air over the bed preventing drag and
increasing performance and MPG. An independent study sponsored by Ford Motor
Company suggests that a cover can increase MPG by as much as 10%.
Your truck bed is a magnet for air as you travel down the road. That
air creates a drag on your tailgate that can significantly reduce your
performance.
TONNEAU COVERS KEEP YOUR CARGO
SECURE AND DRY
Many
tonneaus for trucks are lockable and provide security for your cargo.
This is true for some soft covers including roll-up covers and lift
covers. In addition to security, a cover can keep the contents of your
bed dry, even in a down pour.
HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT COVER FOR
YOUR TRUCK
There are basically two primary types of
covers....hard and soft. While hard covers offer security and style, they
lack the convenience and versatility of soft covers. That is, with the
exception of the new light weight hard toppers, like the Undercover, that can
easily be removed and, unlike fiberglass tops, are resistant to damage.
Soft covers offer easy, quick access to your entire bed while still providing
protection against theft, rain and snow. Soft tops come in a variety of
styles. Rollup soft covers are gaining in popularity and are the best
overall choice for convenient bed access. These tops lock down and, in
combination with a locking tailgate, provide excellent security against theft.
Other soft truck tops include the very affordable snap type, tilt models that
act like a hard truck topper and the new tri-fold truck covers.
