Tonneau Cover Suggestions
Will be replacing my roll up tonneau cover sometime this year - need to save up for one.
Amazon has both name brands as well as "no name" covers. Prices will vary greatly.
I'd like a hard cover that folds up into 3 sections. Section closest to rear window need not fold up too - but would be nice feature.
Any suggestions on brands to look at and your experiences with the brand you purchased?
Thanks!

BAK, Undercover and Gator have hard folding tonneau covers that fold up for full bed access. If you live somewhere that experiences lots of high sunlight, then an aluminum cover like the BAKFlip MX4 Tonneau Cover, UnderCover Ultra Flex Tonneau Cover or the Gator FX Tonneau Cover are the way to go. Aluminum is UV resistant. If you live somewhere with frequent hail, then a composite cover such as the BAKFlip F1 Tonneau Cover or the Gator FX3 Tonneau Cover will be great. The fiberglass reinforced polymer panels are virtually scratch and dent resistant.

I just got this one from AT. Shipping was free and it arrived in two days!

Seems to meet all your criteria. It was heavier than I expected but it seems a solid and quality build. Install was fast and easy, look up install instructional video on YouTube Rough Country’s channel.
Putting in the final bolt which connects the cover to the rail is tricky and requires pretty perfect alignment. Need two people, one on your back in the bed so you can move the cover as necessary and the other to push the bolt through. Works great, folds easily, and looks good with the flush fit. Seems to be pretty weather resistant, I went through an automatic car wash after installing mine and it kept the water out.
