I just got my 1st F-350 srw diesel yesterday 😁
I'm praying for your family and properties safety during this hurricane Hope all goes well in south east Texas 🙏
What about a American work cover
I have an access tool box cover for my short bed 17 superduty cc. Not only is it affordable but it’s been one of the best accessories I’ve bought for the truck bed.
Access is the only one I use,never had any issues.
I purchased my first access cover in 2019 based on your first review on your old truck. I went with the Lorado cover for its low profile appearance and was very pleased. Just got a new truck and the Access Lorado was my first purchase and installed accessory. Best cover and quality I’ve seen for a roll up cover.
I can't speak for other manufacturers, but Access roll ups vinyl is durable. I know of two that have lasted over 17 yrs, in all weather conditions, mostly heat, and literally they still look 95% new color and quality. We use the Access Lite Rider
Wow, that's quite a long life. I wouldn't expect that out of a soft top.
@volvo09 they are for real. All I ever do to mine is wash it off when I wash my truck. I believe they make a product to put on them. But if it ain't broke......
Nice , I got a leer cover, it is remote control. I also put a weather guard box sits in bed. Set up works with fifth wheel hitch. Covers whole bed and it don’t take a lot of room.
Love my Access cover. My dad had one he bought in 2001 and it was on the pickup when he sold it in 2015 still working and looking great.
I had one that came on a Ranger that I owned for four years and it worked and looked great as well which is what sold me to purchase one for my 2019 F-150.
Four years in and it is still in great condition.
My farther in law and brother in law bought Amazon specials for half the price and you can tell. They fit terribly, look all wrinkled and have already had some issues with reliability.
You get what you pay for and Access covers are definitely worth it!
I love my Access rollup cover and low profile tool box on my Ford F450. Great combination for fifth wheel towing
I have a similar brand on my 2021 GMC Canyon. Excellent point on not being water tight. I noticed that right away. Just have to be aware of that point.
Yeah, dad's got one of those retractable covers on his F150 company truck, 5.5ft bed, and he's definitely not a fan- other than the fact that it locks. I've heard people say "Oh it doesn't take up that much space", which yeah, sure. Maybe if you don't really use your bed. But for people who regularly have a lot of stuff in their bed, it takes up a lot of space.
They also bind if they get out of alignment and freeze up in the winter. The work truck at a previous job had one and I wasn't a fan at all
When you put in your on board air system you can put the compressor in the toolbox and hang two five gallon receivers in either end of the box in front of the wheel wells.
Looks nice. What is next upgrade!? New bumpers
I am glad Access makes covers even for older trucks like my 92 F-350 DRW CC. I’m looking to get one of these in the next two weeks or so, namely because you and Chad have so well promoted them. This is a glowing review of these Access covers. They should be proud.
I had lots of Access..keeps most water air out looks good..and u get to tool box too..good choice. Keep getting things for it..if my F450 ever comes in.way looking. Be. 2025
Looks great i went with the truxedo one because my ford pass points paid for it
I used the same soft top! Nice!
I have the Bak X4S it’s been warranted 2 times with complete replacement in 3.5 years. They have great customer service, but for near $1200 I sure wish they had a more durable product. Vinyl delaminates from the aluminum, the slats get messed up, the side weather stripping comes loose, I sure love the look of it, but can’t recommend it. I’ll go back to an Access type tonneau once I’m out of warranty on this one.
I have had very very lil water get in my beds with the full bed version. Anyone that ask about water leakage, I suggest if your hauling something say for vacation etc... lay the beach chairs down first, floats, anything that doesn't matter if it get gets wet. Then lay luggage, or whater u want to stay 110% dry on top of them. Watter will never get above the ridges in the bed.
Good call outs
Hope your well with this hurricane!! Stay safe!!
I know this doesn't really apply to this specific topic but my Diamondback HD cover on my ram is 100% waterproof. Carwashes, pressure washers Heavy storms ( truck sits outside most of the time) nothing has gotten wet in the 3 years of ownership.
I'm guessing you'd rule it out due to the height of the toolbox, but have you looked at the Truck Covers USA Work Tonneau Cover? My only issue with the solution you are using is the cover material. Granted none of them are 100% secure, but the more ridged retractables just seem a better insurance policy to me.
I've had an Access roll up cover(not the yool box model) on my 2010 F350 since the truck was new. Only recently have been considering a new one because the current one is starting to get small surface cracks in the vinyl. Will be getting another Access. Hope ya'll are OK in the hurricane!
What toolbox will fit a 2024 2500hd crew cab short bed I will be towing a fifth wheel later thanks
I'm shocked you didn't go with a tool box that fit inside the bed!
I really enjoy having a saddle box with space under it. An inbed box makes you lose 20" of space PLUS you have to completely open the bed cover to access it.
JD can you list what tool box model..didn't see it in description..thanks bud..love the truck btw
That particular tool box is no longer available from Better Built. However, Better Built makes one for Tractor Supply (part # 1174114) that I bought that works perfect with the Access Tonneau Cover JD is showing
@markratliff7991 thanks bud..i appreciate that.
Truck Covers makes a tool box with built in roller cover. It is expensive but it is supposedly worth it.
You lose a ton of storage space though.
I have a Xtang trifecta. No leaks. I get why you dont want a tri fold. I have a truck camper so i need to be able to completely remove it with no tracks or clamps left on my truck.
Question about installation of the toolbox. In order for the lid to completely open without touching the rear window, I have to move the toolbox rearward, away from the bulkhead. That creates a gap between the bulkhead and the toolbox. Did you have that same issue? If yes, what did you use too full the gap? And how did you fasten your toolbox to the bed rails? Thanks!
What with the gooseneck ball hook up?, have a 2012, looking in changing over to gooseneck hook, and love the cover, going to order one thanks.
I have a Back Head Ache Rack which I like, is there a hit for Back Racks??
Which rail hooks are you using? The ones that pop up and down on top of the rail? My 2019 had issues with 2 different brands i tried. I havent wanted to go through it again with my 2024.
I had an Access cover on my f450 based on your recommendation but unfortunately was unhappy with it…the drawstring opening mechanism failed on me under a year…it was super annoying after that….i had a truxedo soft cover on my Chevy dually previously that I was much happier with. Wish I had a better experience but that’s the truth.
Sorry to hear that. I've never had any issues with the string on mine
With the cover rolled up, does it block the rear camera view of the hitch ball?
Great looking TC btw.
I had a Covers USA roll up toolbox/cover all in one setup. A little pricey but honestly I wouldn't go any other route...
I like it, but the toolbox storage area is very limited due to the cover storing under it.
@@BigTruckBigRV very true. But for the tools I needed to carry it has plenty of room. Full socket and ratchet kit, 2 bottle jacks, booster cables, fire extinguisher, and other random odds and ends.
@jhonathanknox632 are you pulling with a gooseneck or 5th wheel and I assume no clearance issues with the toolbox?
@@cliftoncagle1466 both. Never had any clearance issues. Even had to do some sketchy nearly 90* backs.
Nice bed cover! Have you ever done a review or anything about the Utility bodywerks custom beds? I have a hard time getting into the back of my truck bed and was interested in getting a Utility bodywerks bed with all the compartments . thanks,
I have reviewed them several times at the LUXE factory
Is the bed different than the 2017-2022?
I wish that tool box was still available. Can’t imagine why they stopped making it.
Tractor Supply has a similar one that works great with the Access Tonneau Cover Part # 1174114
@@markratliff7991 Yep, similiar
Mine does not leak at all. I think it's a "gattor" $200. Fits 2022 F350 short box
Can you go through a car wash? Would it get damaged ?
Mine has been through many car washes over the 4 years I've had it and it is completely fine
Yes. No.
I like that truck bed cover. I live in Northeastern Nevada and we get snow. Does it give a snow load rating?
I imagine they are considering they are made in Jamestown North Datota
Any companies making a low profile toolbox with the above bed latches or is that discontinued betterbuilt still the only one around?
Tractor Supply sells one. It's made by BetterBuilt. Has buttons on the ends, rather than the shotgun latches.
The pull string is the first thing to break.
I've thought about cutting down my Retrax, would have liked to see what that person had done.
I don’t see the link for this bed cover listed
I like the gooseneck system you have in your truck. Where did you get it from?
He's sponsored by etrailer.
Out of place comment but where did you get that small storage box that fits under the tool box? Love the content.
Amazon... Made by LUND 288272
Can you provide a model number for your tool box - or better yet, a link to where I can buy it?
It would be cool if somebody integrated a tool box and a retractable bed cover into one unit.
Truck Covers USA does, BUT it has very little storage
I don’t remember the brand name, but my son had a similar cover on his old truck
cannot find a toolbox that works anymore with that cover and a fifth wheel. Why doesnt better built still make it?
I got one from Tractor Supply that is made by Better Built but a different model than the one he has
You didn’t show the floor mat. I have the xatang 2.0. With uws cross box. Someone can cut this with a knife. Thanks
That will be another video
Not a fan of the vinyl. My experience is that it wears out with sun exposure in. Few years.
Man, that was thumbnail highlights how ugly the tack on rear fenders are on Ford dullys.
I see you still have those ugly pin stripes!
Ugly to some, Great to others. All opinions
Been using the same toolbox and rollup access cover on my '20 F350 SRW for 4 years now and never any issues, been through car washes and everything with no issues. Only had to tighten the tension once after 3 years of use to acccount for slight stretching.
I dont understand why you dont use a fuel cell toolbox get some range out of that beast.
Dont think i do Bed Mat..no no
Why didn't you just use the one from the old truck
Went with the truck
Too easy to cut into.
Locks are for honest people. If somebody wants in, they're getting in
This argument comes up all the time. 11 trucks, 30 yrs, traveling the country it has never happened. Out of sight, out of mind.
The hard roll up ones with the box in the front are not ideal in any of my setups with tool/fuel box.
