I'm trying to decide between these two tonneaus for my 2018 Ram Rebel with Ramboxes, and would appreciate any input from guys who have experience with either/both of these - particularly on trucks with Ramboxes. From what I've gathered so far, they both seem to be great options, each with a few advantages over the other...
RetraxPro MX
Truck Covers USA American Roll
The biggest advantage of the RetraxPro for me at this point is that the tracks only protrude about an inch from the sides of the bed... this is important since with Ramboxes, the bed is already narrow. Other than that, most of the advantages go to TCUSA - although I'm not sure I'd use the Yakima/Thule accessory rails, as I plan to run either a Dethloff or Nuthouse expedition bed rack.
RetraxPro MX
- ~$1750
- Aluminum slat construction, supports 500#
- NOT spring loaded; can be locked anywhere along track
- 2 drainage holes; no drilling required
- Canister takes up 12"x12" in front of bed
- Side rail tracks extend only ~1.25" from each side in a Rambox bed
- No options for accessory mount slots on sides
Truck Covers USA American Roll
- ~$1650
- Aluminum slat construction, supports 500#
- Spring loaded; can be locked at 12" intervals
- 4 drainage holes; drilling required for rear holes (some trucks only?)
- Canister takes up 8"x8" in front of bed
- Side rail tracks extent ~3.5" from each side in a Rambox bed (!!!)
- Optional Yakima/Thule accessory mount slots on sides
