Hey everyone! I finally took delivery of my R1T Quad-Motor and I am absolutely loving the performance so far. However, I am really struggling to decide on a bed cover. Since the factory powered tonneau has been such a hot topic, I am leaning toward looking at reliable aftermarket options.

I mainly need something that offers solid weatherproofing for my camping gear and decent security when I am parked in the city. I have been looking at some retractable options, but I am worried about whether they interfere with the gear tunnel buttons or the bed lights. Does anyone have specific recommendations for a cover that fits perfectly and keeps the dust out on trails?

Seconding the recommendation above. In 10 years, i only trust DiamondBack HD Truck Bed Cover over Bak Industries Revolver X4s Hard Rolling Tonneau Cover.

  • DiamondBack: UNBREAKABLE
  • Bak: Clear buttons

Lesson: dont risk ur gear!

In my experience, you should check out the RetraxPRO XR Retractable Tonneau Cover. Over the years I have tried many, and this one doesnt block the gear tunnel buttons or lights at all. The reinforced aluminum slats are basically theft-proof in the city. Tbh, the dust seals work great on trails, keeping my gear bone dry. It seems like a perfect fit? Ngl its a solid choice. gl!

Been thinking about your question since I saw it earlier. Basically, bed covers are a must for range and keeping your camping gear safe from sticky fingers. Why it matters is that the factory options are SO expensive, and many high-end retractable ones still cost a fortune. I went through this last year. I honestly couldnt justify spending $2,000+ after already dropping six figures on the Quad-Motor. I looked for a balance between price and seal quality and found that manual folding covers are way more budget-friendly. They dont block the bed lights or the gear tunnel buttons at all, which was a huge relief.

  • Rough Country Hard Tri-Fold Bed Cover - usually runs around $650
  • Lomax Hard Tri-Fold Tonneau Cover - usually around $950 to $1,000 I mean, these kept my stuff dry and I saved over a thousand bucks for actual trail gear. Just make sure to check the seals often. gl!
