Question:

Hello, We have a 2008 Ford F250 Super Duty 6 3/4ft bed. I would like to know if this product is weatherproof. Will it keep the contents of the bed dry when closed? Thank you,

The RetraxONE MX Hard Tonneau Cover # RT60362 is designed to direct all water and rain through it's drain system so that the truck bed is kept as dry as possible. Would it keep the truck bed totally dry if left out in a very hard rain though? Realistically not. If the rain is light the truck bed contents will remain dry but if the rain is hard there will be some moisture let in.

A lot of the reviews online for this cover state that they would call it "almost waterproof" which is really good for a tonneau as most of them let in a decent amount of water.
