Features to know about

Full Bed Use: Roll-Up Design

A lot of covers make you choose between protection and hauling space, but this one gives you both. The TruXedo TruXport rolls up easily and secures behind the cab with a pair of built-in straps, so you can haul tall or oversized cargo without taking the cover off. The rear header and crossmembers roll up with the tarp, forming a compact bundle that stays put while you drive. When you’re ready to close it, it unrolls and latches in seconds for a secure fit.

Always Tight, Always Smooth: Built-In Tension Control

Covers can loosen or flap when the weather changes, but the TruXport’s dual-latching system takes care of that automatically. Its built-in, pre-set tension control keeps the vinyl grain cover tight in any climate, so there’s no need to make manual adjustments. Snap the rear header into place and the system sets the tension for you. The smooth, even surface sits about 1-1/2" above the bed rails, giving a clean, flush look without arched bows.

Quick, No-Drill Setup: Clamp-On Installation

Installing a tonneau cover shouldn’t turn into a weekend project. The TruXport rails clamp right on top of your truck’s bed rails—three per side—so there’s no drilling or complicated alignment to deal with. The front and rear headers hold the cover assembly steady, while Velcro strips along the rails and weather seals on all four sides help keep out dust, rain, and snow. It’s an easy way to get reliable bed protection in minutes.

Secure and Efficient: Dual Latches and Aerodynamic Design

Security and performance come built in. The dual-latching mechanism keeps the cover locked at the tailgate, and when paired with a locking tailgate, it adds a solid layer of protection for your cargo. The cover can’t be released unless the tailgate is open. Plus, the aerodynamic, low-profile design helps smooth out airflow over the bed, reducing drag and improving gas mileage by up to 10 percent.

Clean Look That Lasts: Durable Vinyl Grain Finish

The TruXport’s black vinyl grain finish adds a simple, polished look to your truck bed while standing up to daily use and harsh weather. It stays tight, resists sagging, and keeps its shape season after season. With its straightforward design and dependable construction, this cover holds its own whether you’re heading to work or hitting the road for a weekend trip.

Customer service was great, and everything lives up to expectations.

Perfect fit and simple to install.

Fits perfect on my 2017 Ram 1500 6.4 foot bed. Easy to install. Etrailer is super easy to work with, they beat a competitor's price for me. The cover arrived within two days of my order.

My expectations were exceeded by the product and Etrailer's service.

Thank you

I purchased the TruXedo cover again for my new truck because I bought one for my last new truck in 2016. Excellent product which was still in great shape after 9 years of New Hampshire weather.

Sounds like your older cover got a real beating over the years. Here's to another 9+ years with the new cover! Also congrats on the new truck, Alex :)



by:

Product very nice. Fits well looks great. Was delivered 2 days late than promised. Only negative thing.



by:

Have had this cover for a year now and really love it. Installation was easy, cover doesn't allow any water in, opening and closing with one person is a breeze. Highly recommend this cover for anyone looking for a durable soft cover.

Still love it!

This tonneau cover exceeds my expectations. I have used it to haul building supplies as we finish our basement and it has kept everything far drier than I ever expected. The latch holds the cover tight and it always looks good.

Great!! No problems and it still looks good!



by:

Didn't receive the product. Called etrailer and talked to Josh. He stated the product manufacturer shipped the item to the etrailer warehouse and not to my requested shipping address. Josh will find the order and have etrailer ship to me ASAP. He will call me with an update and email me the tracking number.

I'm sorry that happened John, I'll get that taken care of!!



by:

So far excellent, only time will tell if if holds together. Had huge storms roll through but forgot to check inside the bed. Don't really open the back that much until were camping, I'll try to leave an update late this season when we go camping. Rolls up nice and veralco strips hold it down really well. 5 stars for now.

Great fit!

I ordered a Truxedo Truxport Tonneau cover for my ram 3500. It arrived with a broken hook that holds the cover open when rolled up. I called Trailer customer service and they could not have been any more helpful or understanding. A free replacement arrived in short order. THANK YOU Etrailer

@Vin Wow Vin, 14 years, I would definitely say you got your moneys worth. Doesn't hut to keep the cover treated with some TruXedo Pro-Tex Soft Tonneau Protectant Spray # TX1704511 so you can maybe get 15 years out of this one =)


by:

At 2 years old , still 100 pleased with this cover. Still working great and Velcro holding up very well. It has exceeded my expectations in every way.

This is my 4th truxedo tonneau cover on my 4th pickup having them. No leaks on any which is why I keep buying them when I get a different pickup. I've had the hard roll up one and it leaked badly.



by:

I am super happy with the bed cover. Better quality than others that I had. It took me about 45 minutes to install. I like to take my time and make sure that it is done correctly the first time. It fits perfectly.

A year in, the bed cover has stood up well to automatic car washes 2-3 times weekly and to two trips of some 2,000 miles at highway speeds. It still looks good and has performed flawlessly.

3rd cover ordered from etrailer. Good service and warranty information is held in their system.

Perfectly! Easy to roll up when the bed is in use. Doesnt get in the way for my fifth wheel hitch when open. Stays in place with the velcro straps. Easy to open and close.



by:

Nice cover. I wish there was a cable going side to side so you don’t have to release each side separately. The holes are there to do it so I’ll probably make my own cable to do this.

Thanks for sending a photo! It's looking good. Let me know how the modification goes if you end up doing it :)



by:

Easy to install. Directions were helpful. Replaced the hard cover roll up type with a cannister. Now that I tow a 5th wheel. I need the space near the cab.



by:

Replacement cover to the original, which was also from etrailer, being vandalized !



by:

I have a 2025 ram 2500. This does not fit my truck well. The sides are too long so the Velcro barely hooks onto the tracks. Also while installing, the first time I tried to close the cover the latch broke. I had to loosen the tension all the way on the cover. The nut to loosen the tension is in a weird position where plastic covers the sides so you can get an open end wrench or socket in their so I just had to use needle nose pliers and yank at it. The material of the cover seems cheap and thin so we will see how long it lasts. Does the job but I expected better.



by:

Save the money and don't buy this cheap cover. Didn't even last a yeat. After 3 months, the rear (tailgate section) would pop up while driving on the highway. Virtually no support from manufacturer. Complete waste of money. Ended up throwing it away in less than 6 months.



by:

Thanks to the experts at etrailer.com who helped me with the selection process, this TruXedo TruXport Soft Tonneau Cover is the perfect fit for my 2026 RAM 3500 with a fifth wheel hitch. Installation was easy and the cover looks great!
