This review is about the solid folding truck bed cover manufactured by Extang. The manufacturer is based in Ann Arbor, Michigan, in the United States. They sell more tonneau covers than anyone else in the tonneau cover manufacturing business. Their covers are well known, of which they have many different models, as well as the quality of their elaboration. I don’t think many would disagree with the fact that Extang makes great quality products. This manufacturing company saw a need for a high quality folding tonneau cover and designed the solid folding truck bed cover.
The reviews are pouring in and it looks like the Extang Solid Folding Truck Bed Tonneau Cover is at the top of folding tonneau covers. This is how Extang describes its new product. They say it comes fully assembled. There are no replacement parts and it installs very quickly. They say it installs and removes faster than any other hard top on the market. They boast that it is very strong and yet nice and light.
The cover features a tri-fold design and the frame is made of aircraft-grade aluminum alloy. The deck itself has a central honeycomb design. It is painted with a textured black poly-tex paint. It has a unique hinge system that they say keeps water out.
The manufacturer boasts that this cover is very strong. They even went so far as to put a medium sized four wheeler on top of the deck and held it up. They do not recommend trying this at home.
This is what some customers have said about it.
“It was easy to install, easy to use, security was good, although a locking handle on the tailgate is needed for added security.”
“Accidentally found another collapsible tarp product while shopping. Best collapsible truck bed cover I’ve ever seen. Keeps cargo dry”
“Installed in five minutes. Great to be able to lock the truck bed. Quality is excellent. Immediately saw better fuel economy”
“This is a great product. It installs very quickly and is easily removed when needed.”
“Very quick installation. Great quality. I’ve had other folding tonneau covers, but this one allows for truck bed use.”
To sum it up, I recommend this solid folding truck bed cover. It’s tough and looks good. It’s easy to install and protects your cargo. Some things I should let you know. It will easily spray over and under rail deck liners. You will need to cut the rail deck liners to accommodate the clamps.
An approved product.
