The Truxedo Tonneau Cover & Supplies

One customer posted a review after installing the Truxedo tonneau cover on his 2005 Dodge Dakota Quad Cab. His comments were: "Great Cover, easy to install and very water tight. I get three little drips up in the very front of the Bed. They roll right down the front wall and into my bed drains so really not a problem. No complaints here!"
This Truxedo tonneau cover sells in the $450-$500 usd range.
Truxedo also offers a low-profile model. It features an exclusive side-sealing velcro which is bonded to a rigid plastic strip installed into a track on the side rail. The system creates a continuous contact over the entire length of the rail, thereby eliminating the need for snaps or adhesives and the risk they fail. The rails are angled to create a rounded and smooth design. The installation is achieved with an easy clamp-on mechanism.
