For those in hot climates, how hot does it get under black tonneau covers?
I imagine it's like an oven.

HAHA no hunting season in the middle of summer here. That was in late October, high was in the 60s (higher elevation). Plain and simple, it gets unbearably hot in there, even when it is chilly outside.I am wondering about your question. Do you want to cover the box or not.
If you want a cover, then just do it. The temp does not matter a twit....
It was 109 in Pheonix today. So I suppose you won't sleep in the bed of
your pickup.......
Missing the ocean breeze ? LolI hate the PPL who drive around in their mighty fine Air Conditioned trucks and the poor dog is in the bed, no mat, nothing but hot metal. That always makes me mad, must just be me. Only 102 here today, be 106 next couple of days, argh.....
on our 107 degree days here in south Texas ran a temp test using an electronic temp gauge and reader. With the tonneau cover closed the bed temp got to 120, with the cover off it got to 117. Not a lot of difference. The bed does not have a bed liner on it, only a bed matt on the bottom. Bet if it had a full bed liner the temp would be about the same with or without the tonneau being closed.For those in hot climates, how hot does it get under black tonneau covers?

I live near Virginia Beach, VA. It’s 92 here today and I used a IR temp gun and measured the bed under my black vinyl cover. It was 104. Keep in mind I used a cheap HarborFreight gun so it’s probably off a few degrees or more.For those in hot climates, how hot does it get under black tonneau covers?
