Hard Folding Tonneau Covers - Truck Ammo

Hard Folding Tonneau Covers:  These covers are similar to the soft folding covers.  They are obviously more secure because it is going to take more than a knife to get through those aluminum plates!  They are also stronger.  Strong enough in fact that you could put cargo on top of them.  Some of the manufacturers like BAK have different models based on how much weight they can hold on top of them.  They sell cargo management solutions that go on top and everything.  If you have a locking talgate, this thing is practically a safe.  No one is getting in there without waking you up because it is going to take dynomite to get in there!  You get the advantages of a solid cover without the disadvantages.  You do not have to remove it to cary large cargo.  Bak's folding covers can also open up all the way (folding up against the glass of the cab) so you can use the entire bed without limitation.  The cover can also be sent by regular ground shipping which is why it is less expensive than the solid cover.  Of the hard tonneau covers, this cover style is the best.
