The first type of hard tonneau cover I will mention is the fibreglass type truck cover. The fibreglass bed covers belong to the hinged type tonneau. These are great looking lids that are usually painted to match the truck. Some of the advantages of this type of cover include things such as they offer greater security than the roll up tonneaus. These fibreglass hard tonneau covers are also great to protect your cargo from the weather. Keeping your cargo dry is a great comfort when you own a pickup truck. They open easily from the tailgate and lift up like a trunk cover with the aid of two gas struts. Some of the disadvantages of the fibreglass covers include such things as the higher cost. They are also heavy and hard to remove if you are suddenly in the need to haul larger cargo. Next hard tonneau cover I will fill you in on is still of the hinged type which opens from the rear of the truck like a truck cover. The Undercover tonneau cover is constructed from an ABS type plastic. It is much like the fibreglass tonneaus but weighs far less and easily comes off and back on with quick release pins. This cover is also a good weather protector as well as great to secure your cargo from thieves. They do have two models to choose from, the original and the Undercover SE model. Another hinged type hard tonneau cover is the TiltBak Tonneau Cover by Bak. This is a one piece cover weighing around 45 pounds but can carry over 500 pounds on top of it. The stake holes are left open like no other hinged truck cover. This allows you to use tie downs or bed rails that you can secure your cargo. The top of this cover is made with a TPO plastic which is very impact, ding and scratch resistant. It has a diamond plate rugged look. The underneath is made of abs type plastic and the core is filled with high density foam. There seem to be a lot of positives with this cover. Now we are going to get away from the hinged type and introduce you to the Folding type hard tonneau cover. These give you fast easy access to your cargo area and offer great security as well. Many pickup truck owners favour this type of cover because of the use-ability factor. Some of the major competitors of this type include the Solid Fold by Extang and both the Bakflip G2 and the Bakflip HD and Bakflip F1 by Bak. That’s my take on the hard tonneau cover. I hope it enlightens you on the different types available. One thing they all have in common is the security factor. Some lock on top of the cover others such as the Tiltbak the opening latch is under the cover away from the weather. You would have to add a locking tailgate handle to add even more security.

Tags: Hard Tonneau CoverI created this Ford Ranger Tonneau Cover review because there is something you should know when looking to purchase a Ford Ranger truck cover. Take your time to think about how and what you use your truck for. Quarter tons such as the Ford Ranger have limited space in the cargo area. If you need to haul items such as sheets of plywood or other similar cargo, you won’t be able to with most hinged truck covers such as the fibreglass type because the gas shocks that hold up the cover get in the way. Now I am not saying if you are looking for a Ford Ranger tonneau cover that the hinged truck covers are no good. You just need to think about what you use the truck for before you buy. If you don’t use your truck for bigger cargo then a hinged cover is fine and the fibreglass lids look terrific painted up to match the truck. If you do use your truck for larger cargo, you can use this Ford Ranger Tonneau Cover review you to see there are many alternatives for a Ford Ranger truck cover. There are other categories to choose from away from the hinged truck cover. There are lots of roll ups, folding covers and even retractable tonneau covers. Your choices are many. They all have there own advantages and disadvantages. I remember when I first saw a roll up truck cover on a pickup truck. My first thoughts were what a pain in the butt if you have to take that thing off every time you use your cargo area. Now that I am much more educated on these covers my thoughts are more like what a great idea. Most of these covers roll up in seconds allowing you full access to your cargo area. Even the bows that support the tarp roll up with the tarp causing no problem what so ever. More and more people are putting truck bed covers on their trucks. When you place one on your Ranger you won’t be alone. The advantages are numerous. I don’t have to remind you about the price of fuel these days. Although vehicle manufacturers are making trucks lighter than years ago and engine performance is a long way from where it use to be. This all helps to save fuel consumption but we are still looking for ways to help save fuel. Purchasing a Ford Ranger truck cover will help on the aerodynamics of your Ranger and allow the wind to pass over your truck instead of meeting resistance at your tailgate. The more you drive, especially at higher speeds such as highway driving, the more you will save. Now fuel savings isn’t the only advantage of installing a truck cover on your truck. Another reason for writing this Ford Ranger Tonneau Cover Review is to show you that these covers are great to keep the weather off your cargo. That may be reason enough to purchase one. There is also security for your cargo to think about. Although the hard hinged covers, the hard folding covers, and the retractables all have locking mechanisms on them for added security, the roll ups add a great amount of security just by keeping your cargo out of sight. Looks alone will impress anyone enough to buy a Ford Ranger tonneau cover.
