Bed cover, anyone try this one?

Depending on the model you buy they can be a little pricey (I paid about $1400 for my hd.) But I can tell you that I have never had a more versatile bed cover. If you use your truck for work and play they are the best way to go. the hinged section is held on by 4 clamps , goes on and off in minutes ,If i need to carry something tall like a fridge the lift rods on the rear cover detach and i fold the cover forward. I have also put pallets loaded with stock on top of the cover (the hd model will support about 1400#'s). you can get them linexed, plain or black powder coat.I bought mine back in 03 and have used it on my 06 chevy and it now sits on my 10 150. I also have added lights on the lids and a 12 volt auxillary plug to it . Best money i ever spent.( sorry I bought it in 05 for my 03 )

Thanks for the pics and the feedback, I didn't know it would fit multiple brands/models, that makes the investment not seem so bad if theres a chance it will fit the next couple trucks in the future or at the very least last that long!

Can I twist your arm into a picture of the light/ plug upgrade I would definitely be interested in doing that!

I bought it in 03 and put it on my 03 chevy, then put it on my 06 chevy and now on my 10, 150.I had it for sale on craigslist and then decided to try it on the ford to see if it would fit. I was shocked to find out that it would fit my 150, I guess i got lucky

I am not sure if it was made to fit different models and years , I know when I bought it they said chevy and ford were different sizes, I called them and asked if it wold fit my 06 and they said yes but after the model change in 07 no, so I really think i just got lucky, best bet is to call them and ask . They would probably be suprised to hear that mine fit my ford.
