Folks - i/m just a few short weeks away from my 2500 arrival and I can hardly stand it. Regardless of how gitty I am right now, I am very torn on what to do for a Tonneau cover. First, let me say I’m not just posting a blind ”tell me what to do” sort of thread here. I’ve done a lot of research and I’ve narrowed it down to two choices.
1) Diamondback Covers: Initial impression was a solid build, leaning towards the HD version with the front and back opening style. I like the fact I can place up to 1600 lbs on top of the cover, but dislike the fact if I need to take it off, it is a bit more of a chore. I have watched a lot of 6mo and 1-year videos with the general feeling that most people like this cover for how they use it.
1.1) Renegade is likely the only cover that can beat the Diamondback cover but it has a year lead time. Nope - I am done waiting for ****. I have waited long enough for the truck ha.
2) Peragon: this one was attractive for a few reasons. One, it is lightweight and can be easily removed. Like the Diamond cover, although I did not mention it, it has good water sealing characteristics to keep contents as dry as possible. My concern with this cover is when folding, I can see it interfering with bed contents etc, and you can't put stuff on top of it.
I'm for sure leaning toward the Diamondback HD cover, with the semi-smooth black finish. Basically, it looks like bed lining material. Do you have any thoughts? If you had to choose a Tonneau cover all over again, what would you purchase and why?
Thanks again for the replies in advance.
