[QUOTE="Rick@FreedomMotorsports, post: 1151926"] I don't know too many hard type tonneau covers that are good for off-roading. I've heard of some having luck with the Truck Cover USA [url=http://www.truckcoversusa.com/american-roll-cover/]Truck Covers USA | American Roll Cover[/url] But I wouldn't trust it personally, not for off-roading anyways. These covers are just too expensive. If anyone has followed my post over the years, I had a BAK Roll-X that I off-roaded with and even took it to Baja. BUT, I modified it with chain tie-downs in 5 different locations to make it work. Plus had to have bed stabilizers as the bed would flex causing it to unlatch the lock/latch. And even then after several years of the off-road runs, I tore the crap out of it to the point that I just took it off and threw it away. It was beat to shit. Since then I went with a Truxedo Lo Pro soft roll-up cover. A soft cover is the only way to go if you want to off-road with it. It is also super easy to remove, two latches and it comes right off and can stow away in the back seat. I left mine rolled up in Baja and had absolutely no issues. I had a 30' cable running through my stuff and put the cover at night when we at the motels. But to expect a Retrax to hold up during off-roading, yeah that's stretching it. [/QUOTE]
