[QUOTE="AZEngineer, post: 424288, member: 8282"] [b]Bed Cover recommendation for Arizona sun and heat[/b] Hi, my Raptor finally has a build date, 5/8 :winner_second_h4h: I will be doing several mods and additions immediately. One is a bed cover. I want the cover primarily to secure items under a locked cover. I also am certain I want a cover that folds or rolls out of the way, not a one piece flip up cover. I don't want one that retracts into the bed as I will haul things at times and I may even need to remove the cover part when hauling so weight and the process to remove an replace is a factor. So far I'm most interested in the RollX and the Backflip F1. Price is not the pimary driver of my decision, functionality to my needs is. RollX Pros: - does not block the rear window when retracted - Seems pretty secure with the interlocking aluminum slats Cons: - worried about the vinyl top in the AZ sun and heat (vinyl would be like 160F in the sun) - weight to completely remove? Not sure if this is an issue Backflip F1 pros: - no vinyl to get ruined in our sun - looks like it's lighter? cons: - looks more combersome or roll up - more or less secure, (I don't know) [/QUOTE]
