Top 10 Best Tonneau Covers of 2020
Unfortunately, sometimes your truck’s biggest strength can also be its biggest weakness. That wide open truck bed is perfect for hauling gear and making trips from the hardware store, but it also means your stuff is left out in the open, exposed to the weather and prying eyes. This is easily fixed, though! A good truck bed cover can give the best of both worlds. An open truck bed when you need to haul something big, and then essentially giving you a 6′ long trunk to keep your gear and tools safe!
Here are 10 of our most highly recommended bed covers for a range of different trucks!
1. Rough Country Low Profile Hard Tri-Fold for ‘16-’20 Tacomas
Sleek and flush mounted, Rough Country has done what they do best and delivered a solidly built cover for a surprisingly reasonable price. This cover is easy to install with just one person, given its tough but lightweight aluminum panels. Need to get to your gear? No problem, just fold back a panel or three to open up easy access to your bed. Easy as cake.
2. Bestop Ez-Roll Soft Tonneau Cover for JT Gladiators
Not content with just making quality Jeep tops, Bestop have rolled out (get it?) a new line of tonneau covers for JT Gladiator owners. Keep your stuff out of the weather on the trail, while giving you easy access to your full truck bed in just a few moments. It’s nice and lightweight, and the fabric will hold up for years to come under the sun and elements.
3. Rugged Ridge Armis Hard Rolling Bed Cover for JT Gladiators
Looking for a bit more security for your JT’s truck bed, but don’t want to sacrifice versatility? This new rolling hard tonneau cover from Rugged Ridge can roll up out of the way, giving you full access to your truck bed when you need it. Then once you’re done, you can close it back up and rest easy knowing your gear is protected under the hard aluminum cover.
4. Bestop Supertop with Tinted Windows for ‘04-’15 Tacomas
Built using the same tough material as they use in Jeep soft tops, Bestop came out with a lightweight and versatile bed cover for those who don’t want to commit to a hard fiberglass camper shell. Roll up the windows for easy access to your gear when you need it, and then close them up to keep everything out of sight and out of mind.
5. Rough Country Low Profile Hard Tri-Fold for ‘19+ Silverado/Sierras
Whether it’s your lifelong collection of tools or even just a week’s worth of groceries, this cover from Rough Country is tough to beat when it comes to protection for the price. Aluminum panels, rubber seals, weatherproof hinges and a rugged finish makes it easier than ever to stop all weather and would-be thieves in their tracks.
6. BAK MX4 Hard Folding Tonneau Cover for JT Gladiators
The MX4 is the juggernaut of the industry. With tough aluminum panels, and a dense foam core, the MX4 gets the job done, and looks damn good in the process. Sitting flush with your bed rails, and folding up completely out of the way of the truck bed, the MX4 is inconspicuously secure when you need it to be, and out of the way when you need the extra room.
7. Extang Trifecta 2.0 Soft Tri-Fold for JT Gladiators
No matter where your next adventure or job takes you, you can be sure your stuff will be safe and covered thanks to the strong, sleek and smartly-designed Extang Trifecta 2.0 Folding Tonneau Cover. And for under $450, that is a tough deal to beat.
8. Bestop Supertop with Tinted Windows for ‘02-17 Ram 1500s
Fiberglass camper shells are nice to have, but they can also be a real pain if you need to open up your bed to haul something large. Bestop’s Supertop on the other hand can be installed with just one person, and even allows you to open up the side windows to access your gear from any angle -- something most hard tops don’t allow.
9. BAK MX4 Hard Folding Tonneau Cover for ‘16-’20 Tacomas
UV- and scratch-resistant with a matte-black finish, the tri-fold BAK MX4 is a best-seller in our hard folding tonneau cover category, and in our opinion the best hard folding tonneau cover in it’s price range – just check this truck bed cover reviews to see how much customers love them. The MX4 offers full truck bed access when you need it, and weather protection and security when you don’t, thanks to an integrated tailgate seal and long-lasting latch housing components.
10. Bestop Ez-Roll Twill Tonneau Cover
Made from the same classic twill Jeep soft top material that we all know, Bestop decided Gladiator owners deserved their own slice of this lightweight but tough material for their beds. Weather resistant and easy to open and close, the Ez-Roll gives you versatility and ease of use in one package.
