A tonneau cover is a hard or soft surface attached to the open area of your truck bed. Below are a few pros and cons of these accessories from our team at Brighton Ford in Brighton, CO.
Pros:
A tonneau cover safeguards your possessions from dust, weather, and theft. It can also contain your items and keep them from flying out of your truck bed while driving at high speeds. Along with protecting your belongings, the cover will reduce air drag on your truck, making it more aerodynamic and fuel-efficient.
Cons:
Depending on the style and structure of your tonneau cover, you may have to remove or fold it when transporting large or tall items in your truck bed. Doing this can be inconvenient and time-consuming, particularly if you must do it repeatedly. Over time, a tonneau cover can become soiled, scratched, or damaged. It will need additional care and maintenance to remain usable.
