Improved Mileage
When your truck has a truck bed cover, your MPG will increase. According to many experts, the best way to improve the truck's fuel economy is to add a bed cover. A cover will help reduce aerodynamic drag and can improve gas mileage by as much as 10%.
Extra Storage
While may truck owners are concerned that covering their truck will restrict storage, it’s important to know they do just the opposite. The rails provide the perfect method for transporting larger items, while still giving you continuous use of your bed. With a bed cover you can transport anything from bikes to kayaks safely.
Protection
Just because a pickup truck is meant to transport objects, does not mean your items have to be exposed for everyone to see. What’s the best way to enclose and protect your belongings? A truck bed cover! A bed cover will keep your valuables out of sight and prevent theft. With an open bed, anyone can reach in and take your belongings. A bed cover not only conceals the items in your truck it increases security with a build-in locking system as well!
Protection From Elements
As we know, the weather is unpredictable, and this is especially true in Wisconsin. To ensure your items being hauled or stored are not damaged from the natural elements, we recommend installing a bed cover to guarantee a weather-proofed bed.
Protection from Lost Belongings
If you have ever seen lost items laying on the side of the road, chances are they fell out of an open top pickup truck. The major benefit of a covered bed is the ability to load up your truck without having the fear of losing or damaging any of your items.
