fOLDING BED COVER?
What's up guys? I've really been thinking about getting a folding bed cover, and just selling my toolbox. I'm looking to spend no more than 400 bucks and want one that is pretty much awesome in every way. Durable, waterproof, etc. Any ideas where to find one for that budget?
Anyway, I see a lot of trucks on here with really good looking bed covers, and am just wondering where everyone is getting them. Thanks in advance. Pics are most welcome.

I gotz a Truxedo which is vinyl and folds 3 times. Internal frame, but I suspect it leaks.
Around $300.
Heading into it's 3rd winter and has held up with 18" of wet snow and freezing rain with no probs.
I always keep the snow off my cover cuz you never know when you might want to use your bed.
Lots easier (and cleaner inside the bed) to keep the snow off after every storm instead of cleaning it off just when you want to access the bed.
No snow, leaves or debris and help keeps valuables covered, but not theft proof.

I got a Tuxedo too. I have a new truck and got it only 2 months ago but I am very happy with it. I did 1200 miles under the rain for Thanksgiving and had no leaks, except at the end of the bed where the top of the tailgate joins with the cover, nothing major though considering the amount of rain we got..!!

good luck, my soft roll up cover, a Truxedo, cost more than that, finding a good quality hard cover for that price is going to be difficult if not impossible.

we have the bak-flip on our dodge, had it since 2008, has very few leaks(maybe just a dribble or 2 in the blowing rain) folds up, the latches are under it so when tailgate closes you cant open it..we bought it locally so we spent a little extra dough , but if i knew how easy it was to put on , i would have ordered it and put it on myelf to save that money
