Default Tonneau cover?

I need a bit of advise. I have a 2012 XLT with a 6.5 bed. I have a tool box on there now. It measures 20 5/16. I want to keep the box and add a soft tonneau. What are the better brands? How well do they seal or fit? Any other pros or cons I should know?

All tool boxes are not created equal. That being said you might find it difficult to "fit" the proper cover to the bed since tonneau covers are made to a set length. The escape from that is to buy a toolbox and cover from the same company as those covers are made to fit a certain box. Short of that you could contact the toolbox mfgr and get recommendations for covers that may work with their particular box.

I went with truxedo on this truck rather than my extang express that I ran on all my others. I wish I would've stayed with extang.

Our ACCESS Toolbox Roll-Up Cover was made for jobs like this. If you are interested, please let me know if I can help you in any way.

Truxedo makes an excellent cover with a lifetime warranty. Had them in my last 2 trucks

I have one as well for my 2012 FX4 with 5 1/2' bed. I've had it ever since I bought the truck 3+ years ago. Very pleased!

Google "Access Toolbox Tonneau Reviews". It's like anything else, some are good, some not so good. Not to knock Access but look at reviews on other than their site...some companies "screen" their reviews and their product is then flawless. LOL I'm not saying or implying that Access does this in any way...just say'in.
Don't be a "Hater".
