Hard Tri-Fold Vs Hard Roll-up Tonneau Bed Cover - which is better?

[Old_Norm]

You mean the vertical space when you fold it up? Checking to make sure I understand.

The space not covered by the folded up cover.

My thought was that the role up would be better since the bed is already small. Seems to me the role up would give you moor room. Just my opinion.

You aren't supposed to travel with passengers in the bed.

I must not understand what scenario and type of space you are describing. Are you talking about when the cover is fully covering the bed or when it's folded up?

I assumed when folded up it covered 1/3 of the bed. Is it actually more than that?

Seriously?

Seriously?

yeah. what you are saying doesn't make sense so I'm asking. are you saying the cover extends down 1/3 of the way into the total bed height? that's the only option I've got left here but that sounded like kind of a lot.

i got the ford roll up on mine, it's pretty solid certainly not weak, the cross pieces are aluminum and it would support some weight i am sure, but i don't think any of the tonneau's are designed to carry anything on top.

I didn't like how the fold up blocks the window either, but to be fair the rollup doesn;t rollup all that small. Well at least this time of year (i've had the truck just a few weeks). wasn't long ago the rollup was more expensive than the trifold, that seems to have changed now too.

You lose 1/3 of your bed space vertically with a tri fold. I've always had roll ups and never had a problem. However, I always bought ones recommended by friends or review sites. Current one is from Realtruck. Good quality.

I think that third is a bit off. From what l measure, it's a foot and that deprlends what it is. If we r talking about an upright bike, yes; lay it down and it's zip.

Yeh, I was talking about the tri fold type where the folded tonneau stays on the bed. Haven't seen that many that fold up against the rear window. What tonneau are you referring to that only leaves a foot covered?
