My cover has 2 crossbars that are attached to the cover. It just rolls up as one piece.

I was looking at this one it was pretty expensive but it's a good system.

same here, the covers are about the same but this one is entirely inside the rail looks like yours sits on top. It probably keeps water out better, dont know.


And thanks for the compliments

I have the Truxport. Have had it on for almost 2-1/2 years. It has held up great.

First pic is when it was new in June of 2008.


This was taken in October of 2010.

Yeah, the Truxport definitely sits up higher than the Lo Pro. It sits on top of the bedrail, whereas the Lo Pro is inside of the bedrail. Not a drop of water get into my bed at all, and for $120 for what was essentially a brand new cover I am extremely pleased with it. Truxedo definitely makes a damn good cover.

This is how it mounts up.

I've had my Truxedo on since a week after I bought my '05 - 5 1/2 years ago. It's still in great shape and doesn't leak. One thing - after about 4 years the velcro on the side strips started to wear out. The cover would get loose and the warranty was over. When I called Truxedo to ask about buying new side strips, the customer service person asked how long I'd had it and what the model was. Then she said she'd send me new side strips free of charge. They arrived in a few days and have been on since.
Not only a good product but the company stands behind it.
