Features to know about
Quick Full-Bed Access: 10-Minute Removal and Reinstall
When you need to haul something tall or oversized, you don’t have to fight with a permanent tonneau. The Switchblade can be completely removed or reinstalled in about 10 minutes using just a wrench and screwdriver. The canister unbolts from the side rails, and the whole unit lifts out as one piece. Once the big job’s done, you can pop it back on just as fast to keep your bed protected again.
Smooth Operation Every Time: Spring-Loaded Retractable Design
Getting to your gear is simple. Just squeeze the pinch grips under the rear plate and the heavy-duty tension spring automatically retracts the cover into the canister. The built-in pull strap lets you close it in one motion, gliding smoothly along the side rails until it locks at the tailgate. The spring assist takes the effort out of opening the cover, making it faster and cleaner than manual retractables.
Built for Real Protection: Aluminum and Vinyl ArmorTek Deck
The deck combines the strength of rigid aluminum panels with a black vinyl top layer bonded over them. That gives you the seamless look of a soft cover with the toughness of a hard one. A large rear seal blocks out water and debris, while the foam seal under the rails and canister helps keep the bed dry. It’s a solid barrier against weather and theft when paired with a locked tailgate.
Compact Canister and Flush Profile: More Space, Better Looks
The canister sits up front with a compact, angled shape that leaves more usable space in the bed and doesn’t block your rear window. The low-profile rails sit just 1/8" above the bed for a flush, finished look that blends in with the truck’s lines. The aerodynamic design helps cut wind drag and can even improve gas mileage when the cover is closed.
Smart Water Management: Built-In Drain Tubes
Rainwater channels through the side rails into the canister instead of pooling on top. From there, drain tubes route it out through the factory holes in the bed floor. This system keeps your cargo dry and prevents water from freezing inside the rails in cold weather, so the cover always rolls smoothly no matter the season.

I'm very satisfied with the product. I previously had a flip top style tonneau cover on an older truck which blocked my rearview mirror when fully up. Not a problem with this unit. The majority of the full length bed is still usable. The unit only hangs down about 8 to 10 inches or so into the bed. I had no problem installing it on my own. The fit was perfect. Overall a good experience. The only thing I would have liked to have seen was a third brace in the middle for the side panels, just to provide extra support in case someone sits down on the bed rail and puts more wait on the side panel than the bed. That said, it does feel pretty solid and looks great.

Packaged well, it comes as a complete package, sales person was very knowledgeable and took the time to go over several different styles les until I was able to decide on the stitckback. It will be installed on a 2024 Denali Ultimate, it will be so nice to keep our stuff dry and secure. etrailer was awesome to deal with. My product came in 2 boxes delivered to my door.

Great fit for an eight foot bed. The Pace Edwards switchblade retractable bed cover was easy to install and adjust. This cover allows you to store items in your bed and still retract without blocking your rear window or folding in on your stuff in the bed. Very low profile cover.

Installation was simple. Although the canister supports seemed very flimsy. Cover worked well for the first few months at some point it became more difficult to retract the cover all the way into the canister. Now at one year the spring seems to have lost all its tension. Tried to contact P/E to find out if there was a way to fix it. No response yet.

Love the sleekness of the cover. I removed a bak revolver and replaced it with this one. Much easier to hook up the 5th wheel without the giant roll of cover behind the cab. Super easy to open and close. The only issue I had was the front mounting hardware did not fit for some reason. They would not loop together due to the Engel of the truck bed. Not a big deal as I made it work just fine.pretty easy install as I did the entire thing alone as a 58 year old man with a wrecked back!

Update: Purchased in July 2025, it is now September 8th 2025, so basically 2 months since installed. The cover will not retract all the way. Called the manufacturer for warranty. I basically have to remove the cover and inspect the spring assembly. They will then send out a new spring assembly that I will need to install myself. This will require a fair amount of my time, which I am not happy about. This unit should not fail in two months, especially with very limited use. I would have preferred them to send a new cartridge that I could put in the truck for ease of repair. They dont care about the customer experience, apparently. Do better Pace Edwards!

@Gary Glad to hear it's still working well for you! Well, other than the issue you had at the 2 month mark, sorry about that.
I've had one of these on my Silverado since 2018 and mine is still going strong, so I know you will continue to be happy with it! ^___^

The bed cover is amazing! I have a low bed rack that doesn’t work with a folding cover, so this retractable cover was the perfect choice. Now I can leave the rack in place and access the bed. Installation was pretty easy, a little confusing just from the directions, but it probably would have been easier if I watched a video. The clamps weren’t intuitive, but made sense once they were in and feel super secure. I’ve only had it in for a few days, but just took the truck camping for a long weekend and used the cover a bunch. I can’t speak to the longevity yet, but so far, so good!

A year later and the cover is still working great. I do have to say that it leaks like a sieve at the tailgate, but that’s the only issue. It’s hard coming from a tri-fold that completely covers the bed and kept water out, but the benefits still outweigh this one con. It’s holding up great and still slides flawlessly. I probably don’t lubricate it quite as much as I should, but the few times I’ve done it has helped it slide like new again.

Thank you eTrailer for your install videos. They are so much better to follow than the instructions that come with the cover. It took me about an hour to install if not a bit longer due to the rain. I installed on my own, which the install woukd be faster if you have someone helping you. The only thing I had an issue with was the weather strip but it was also due to the surface being wet and hard to dry.

Great service and fine product! Order was delivered in two packages and delivered on time, and all the parts were included (nothing left out as sometimes happens). Tonneau cover was easy to install both by following included directions or by using the demo video on the website. Item fit my 2026 RAM3500 DRW MEGA CAB like OEM and worked properly upon installation.
I have only one slight concern as you will see in provided pictures. To make the cover fully "water tight", you will need to add some type of seal or trim where the bed meets the bed rails, as the provided seal does not extend over this small, open area at the joint.

Overall for the price I’m not satisfied. I followed the manufacturers instructions and it worked smoothly for about a month and then the tracks started getting rougher and rougher. It will open about half way and then you need to get in and push it from side to side for it to fully retract. I also had the cover fall down off the track in the center and it was a huge pain to get it back in the track by myself with cargo inside the bed. You are better off spending an extra $100-200 and going with the “real truck” roll up bed cover.

The JackRabbit isn't designed for that same easy removal and reinstallation. What size is your truck bed? If you have the 6-3/4' bed you need the # PE63CV (Aluminum and Vinyl) or # PE93CV (Aluminum). If you have the 8' bed you need the # PE87CV (Aluminum and Vinyl) or # PE77CV (Aluminum). All versions are compatible with the MultiPro tailgate if you have it.

This fold up against the back windshield to give you complete truck bed access when towing your fifth wheel trailer.

This cover along with the BAK Revolver X2 Hard Tonneau Cover # BAK64FR you were looking at would require complete removal of the rails as the cover wouldn't easily disassemble and allow the rails to stay. The # BAK64FR is just held to the bed with a few clamps so while it wouldn't be convenient you could still easily remove...
