Just curious as to what people are using and like as far as retractable tonneau covers. I have looked at the BAK Revolver X4, but there are a LOT to choose from. Prefer one without drilling, good build quality and cuts into the width of the bed as little as possible. Any opinions are appreciated!

Thanks,
Scott
 
I have the retrax cover its pretty good, I should have bought the metal one. Mine had a warranty issues already. But they are covering it.
 
I just installed a Truxedo Sentry CT last week. I'm happy with the overall function, fit, and appearance. Peragon also looks good.

I got the same cover. I love it with the exception of one little thing. The rear seal over the top of the tailgate requires me to open the bed cover up just slightly to close the tailgate after opening it. That said... I like this cover a lot more than the Retrax and that style. The box in the front of the bed takes too much bed space for my liking and the roll up function starts to get clunky over time. Really happy with this purchase.20200730_202442.jpg

Agreed - I'm getting used to it. I already shut my tailgate once or twice without lifting back the cover.
Cover looks good.
 
Thanks for your feedback everyone. Still trying to decide
 
Just saw the thread. I also installed a Truxedo Sentry CT. I love this cover!
The more I use it, the more a appreciate it. Well built, solid and very good looking too.
Coupled with their handy Cargo Retreiver, it's been a joy to use so far.

I just found this one this morning and agree it looks great and really easy to remove. Do you have any problems with dirt debri in the Velcro if the cover is open?

None whatsoever. It has been left open for about 1/3 of time since install.
I had another truxedo cover but different model before this one and after 12 years it still worked as good as day 1. I expect the same with this one.

Thanks, then just helped make up my mind. I won't use it all the time, so I want to be able to take it out when I want. I just want something fro security when we go places with stuff in the bed.
 
Truxedo ProX15 here. First T-cover ever in countless trucks. I wanted the Sentry CT but it wasn't in stock locally and I was leaving town next day. Popping up the TC to close TG is a little annoying but it kept everything out of sight during the trip and was only $500. Last PU had a canopy that was always 3/4" too short for what I was hauling. Gonna try this out for awhile but digging the look so far. Install was super simple. Good Luck!

That's one thing cool about the Sentry CT: order of closing doesn't matter, it just works. That was a welcomed change from my previous cover.
