Look, I started by asking a simple question about where this thing is made. I couldn't find the answer on the posted link. I was not trying to make any social or political commentary.
The criticism of me is not appreciated!
I have this cover on my Tundra right now and I’m very happy with it but how would you install ladder racks? I’m wanting a rack too

you’re the one who said
As long as it ain’t China!
China can manufacture excellent goods, the factories just build to a price point that their customers ask for. It’s not the fault of the country.

Which model did you get? seems like they have a few to pick from and some seem very similar. The two soft rollups seem almost identical but there is a $200 cost difference.

There are a lot of reasons for people to not support china, from their rampant expansionism to their outright threatening nuclear warfare on surrounding countries. Quality of production does not even factor into my decision to avoid their products in general.
BUT, that is far outside the scope of a vehicle forum and I won't say anymore about it.
The engineers confirmed that the bed extender on the Maverick will work with the Truxport cover.

I have a TruXedo TruXport on my Colorado. It has been on about 3-1/2 years and has held up very well. I protect it with 303 UV Protectant.
I only wish their logo on the back didn't become sun-washed and faded so quickly (less than a year).

How much (ballpark) do we think this will cost?
NM, I just looked up this year's ranger and it's $320, so that gives me a good idea.

They had prices up yesterday, but appear to have changed it to "coming soon". It was $300 for that model before they took it down though.
Looks like a great deal. I like that it looks sturdy, but is not permanent. Ever used this brand before? It's fairly waterproof, right?

No, the only longevity I have to go on is reviews I have read online. this is my first personal truck (drove a F250 for work for a while). I don't like the trifolds because they just seem like they get in the way too much. The hard rollups either block the rear windshield too much or take up a lot of room in the bed. Soft rollup seemed like a good compromise.
I would be interested in hearing from Truxedo if this is true, but I read somewhere they are the OEM for some of Fords soft rollups.
