Re: Tonneau cover

From what I've read, I don't think they are the same. I ordered a Tonneau for my long fleetside (a couple weeks ago) and if it EVER shows up, I'll post about it and the company I got it from. It's a snapdown and was $199, including shipping.

Re: Tonneau cover

Here's mine made by bedlocker. they make it to fit your bed size. It was kind of expensive but keeps my stuff safe. Its aluminum so you need more than a knife to get in.

I had to have something safe because I leave the truck at the launch ramp all day. This one is great.

The company is truckchamp.
I now see they don't ship international but I suppose you could have it shipped to one of the Northern US members and you could drive down, install it and drive back home.

Unfortunately, I paid for my truck cover April 24th and STILL haven't heard a word from these folks. I'm going to call them this morning (yes, I've emailed them, twice, and so has Google) and try to get the mess straightened out but until I get some response, I urge everyone to steer clear of the company.

Re: Tonneau cover

I've got an older Extang on my '72 LWB. I bought it from a local shop 6 or 7 years ago as old stock. It was shipped to his shop in 1995 and never picked up. If I remember correctly, I have $100 for it.....

Did they ever come through with your tonneau cover? I thinking about one, and the choices seem limited.
Thanks

Even reading their positive feedback, there is plenty of complaints of shipping/customer service problems.

I think I will write to some of Tonneau Master's other dealers to make sure this cover is actually available...with all it's parts.

Gaylords is the best in my opinion. Custom fit, locking fiberglass. Made in Santa Fe Springs, Calif.

Re: Tonneau cover

Hi, I was wondering where you got the tonneau cover. I have a 1957 3100, any info would help.

Thank you,

Roberto
