Tonneau covers
Any good suggestions on good low-profile bed covers? I only plan on using them when taking long road trips and the bed is acting like a trunk, so I'll need it to be 100% fwaterproof if there are such things. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Are you looking for a roll up, fold up, Velcro, snap on, fiberglass or soft one?
Theres alot of different choices.
Ive got an Extang Blackmax snap on soft cover on my truck and it keeps the bed dry and covered. I paid $80 for it from a seller on Craigslist and it was in perfect condition.

Yeah, that would help, huh? Well I'm open to any suggestions, its freezing here in the winter and I heard the snaps can break, I probably wouldn't use it that much in the winter honestly. Definately a roll up, I want it out of sight as much as possible!

My last tonneau was an Access LiteRider cover which is low profile. Dry inside, tonneau was inside of the bed rather than "hovering" over the sides, velcro fasteners, lasted 10 years. I did put some weather stripping on the front of the bed and on the sides of the back of the bed, IIRC. Helped seal the front and around the tailgate.

I wouldn't get a snap on, especially in cold climates!
