Improve the look of your truck, avoid the hassle of traditional, snap-style tonneau covers and save money all in one with the TruXedo TruXport soft, roll-up cover.
The TruXport is an economically priced choice for protecting your truck bed, installing easily in minutes and cutting gas costs with an aerodynamic design that reduces tailgate drag.
TruXport installs with rails along the top of your truck bed walls, held in place by clamps - three per side. A front and rear header hold the cover assembly in place; Velcro strips along the rails secure the cover; and weather seals on all four sides help to keep dust, rain and snow out of your truck bed.
The TruXport features a dual-latching mechanism that secures the tonneau cover at your tailgate. This mechanism includes a built-in tension control that automatically sets the tension of your tonneau cover when the rear header is snapped into place. This ensures that you never need to manually adjust the tension of the cover. The latches can be released one at a time, so you don't need a partner - or a giant wing span - to open the cover.
A pair of security straps holds the tonneau in place behind the cab when it is rolled up, allowing full access to the truck bed. The rear header and crossmembers roll up with the cover to form a compact roll. The cover unrolls and latches in seconds, forming a secure rear cargo area when used in conjunction with a locked tailgate. TruXport cannot be released unless the tailgate is opened first.
The TruXport offers a smooth appearance on your truck bed with no arched bows. The tonneau cover rails sit only 1-1/2" above your truck's bed rails.

Today in our 2013 Ford F-250 Crew Cab, we'll be installing the TruXedo TruXport Soft, Roll-Up Tonneau Cover, part #TX269101. Avoid the hassle of traditional snap-style tonneau covers and upgrade the look of your truck with the TruXedo TruXport Tonneau Cover. It's a no-drill installation that can improve the aerodynamics of your truck. When used with the locking tailgate, the whole truck bed becomes secure. It easily rolls up so you can gain access to the bed of your truck. Simply undo the latches on both sides, and then roll it up towards the cab.
When we get to the end, we can strap it down with the two safety straps. It features hook and loop fasteners down the whole side rail to keep out moisture, dirt, and debris. The included clamps secure our tonneau cover to our truck side rails. Let's go ahead and show you how we got it installed. The first step to our install is we determine if our truck has a drop-in bed liner, a spray-on bed liner, or nothing at all. As you can see, our truck here has a spray-on bed liner, so we'll be actually taking the included weather stripping and putting it on the existing weather stripping.
If we had nothing at all, we would apply it to the bulkhead on top. We'll just start peeling it off and we're going to attach it exactly right on top, just like that. We'll work our way down, and we can come back and press it down firmly. Just going to work our way all the way across, and when we get to the end, if we have any excess we can simply just cut it off with some scissors. Once we get to the end, we'll just peel off the backing and go back and just kind of press it in place. Now with our weatherstripping installed, let's go ahead and move it on up to the bulkhead.
We don't need to worry about setting it exactly in place, just going to move it up and out of the way for now. Now onto our TruXedo side rails, we'll need to install a piece of weatherstripping here and here. It does come included, we'll just peel off the one that matches and then set it in place. This has to be done before we install it. We do have some other pieces here, these will come later in the installation.
Now we can attach them. We're going to bring it up and we're going to plug this in to our bulkhead piece on our tonneau cover. Now it's very easy to do, you can just lift up on the tonneau cover slightly, line it up, and then slide it forward, just like that. Repeat that same process for the other side. Now with our side rails installed, let's go ahead and square it up. I'm actually going to pick up on the tonneau cover here, and I'm going to slide this all the way toward the bulkhead. We want to make sure it sits evenly, that's where we want it to sit. We want to make sure it's like that all the way across. We also want to make sure that our side rails are flush with the bedside rails. Same thing over here, just going to lift up and set it in place, just like that. Now we're ready to install our clamps, so we want to make sure that they're opened up, loosened up all the way, and we need to put our front ones all the way forward as close as we can. We're going to set ours right here. It may look like we can go right here, but underneath there is an obstruction, so we're only able to go here. We're going to go underneath first, and then bring it over top. Then we can slide it a little more forward if we like, but we need to be sure that the teeth line up with the grooves on our TruXedo side rail, and make sure they all go in place, just like that, and then we can tighten that down. We'll get them all loosely installed, and then we'll come back and tighten them down with our half-inch wrench. For our middle clamp, we don't want to go exactly in the center with the bed. We're going to go slightly towards the tailgate. We'll line it up with our wheel well here, and we'll go slightly back, so we put it about here. Same thing, we'll go underneath, line up our teeth with the grooves, and then hand tighten it down. For our last one, it needs to be closest to our tailgate, and we're actually able to go right here. Again we'll need to make sure that our TruXedo side rail is nice and flush with the bed rail of our truck and then we can tighten it down. We'll repeat this same process for the other side. Now with our clamps loosely installed, let's go ahead and tighten them down. We're going to start with the front ones first. Now we don't want to over-tighten these, we just want to get them nice and snug, that way they don't move on us. We're going to skip over our middle clamp and come all the way to the back and again just making sure that it's nice and square. Now I went ahead and tightened down my front and rear clamps on both sides, now let's unroll our tonneau cover and check it out. We just want to make sure that it looks straight. We'll line up our piece here all the way across and to the notch here. Make sure it's in on both sides, we'll bring it down, use two hands, and latch it into place. We're looking for two clicks, one click on this side and then one click on the other side. I'd say it looks pretty good, so let's unlatch it, roll it up, and then tighten our middle clamps. Now with both of those tightened down, let's go ahead and unroll our tonneau cover back out. We want to put in our last weather seals. We'll take those two that we set aside before. We're going to put them right here on both sides. With those in place, let's go ahead and latch up our tonneau cover again, bring it down, and then let's connect our hook and loop. The trick is here connect one side all the way across, then for the other side, when you connect this, you want to pull it towards you and that's going to give it that smooth look and take out all of the wrinkles. With that, we've got you covered, and that's going to complete our installation of the TruXedo TruXport Soft, Roll-Up Tonneau Cover, part #TX269101 on our 2013 Ford F-250 Crew Cab.

Purchased and installed the TX269101 a year ago and only have had positive experiences. It was an easy install on my 2015 F-250 with the 6.5" bed only taking a little over an hour. My truck has the plastic bedliner with a rubber floor and the tannua cover fit perfectly. When closed the truck bed is waterproof and when open it locks in position securely. After a year in Eastern Tennessee the cover still looks as good as the day I installed it but in fairness my truck is garage kept. I haven't done any maintenance to the cover except washing and there are no noticeable wear spots. I believe this was an excellent choice for my needs and the cost. I would definitely purchase it again! ...
Product as described. Arrived timely and well packaged. Installation was a breeze. After 1 year, product has held up well and functions like new. I know others that have same product and they are satisfied has well without problems

Review from a similar TruXedo TruXport Tonneau Cover in Tonneau Covers
Although my truck is garaged, this is a quality Tonneau Cover. It was easy to install and it keeps my truck looking neat and clean and provides better gas mileage. When you want it out of the way, simply pull the release latches after letting down the tail gate and lift it to release the velcro and proceed to roll it up behind the cab where it has 2 hooks and a rubber strap to secure it. I love it!

This is my second time getting this tonneau cover. I had one on my last truck that I also ordered from etrailer. Simple to install and keeps the weather out of the truck bed.
Review from a similar TruXedo TruXport Tonneau Cover in Tonneau Covers
We actually purchased this tonneau cover out of desperation, and because it was fairly inexpensive. Got a new truck, have a lot of long trips planned pulling a trailer. Need to cover our truck's bed. Want to get an ERA or Leer topper, but the wait for those is 3 or 4 months. We couldn't wait, so the TruXedo cover was a temporary solution.
Having said that, I am pleasantly surprised how nice this cover is. I'm enjoying using it. Installation was easy, the cover fits tightly, and the velcro sides work well. I recommend this product.

I purchased this cover for my 2016 F-350 and have been very pleased with it. I have also used the Truxedo Pro-Tex Protectant Spray and it has done a great job keeping my tonneau cover looking awesome! Would highly recommend both!

Fits well, but “leather” in spots is already wearing thin.

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

Perfect fit and easy installation except no mention of the tie down straps mounting. I did have to add 1/2 inch weather strip on the front of my truck bed do to the bed rail caps. Looks great

Review from a similar TruXedo TruXport Tonneau Cover in Tonneau Covers
So far so good. Customer service and product tracking provided by etrailer is outstanding and their website is easy to navigate. The TruXport roll up cover installed in about an hour but I had to clean out the bed first and was particular about centering and clamp placement.
Review from a similar TruXedo TruXport Tonneau Cover in Tonneau Covers
Reviewed a lot of different tonneau covers for my 2004 Chevy 2500 HD (Diesel), but kept coming back to this one, mostly for the ease of installation and functionality. I watched the attached installation video by Etrailer, which helped familiarize the process. I was able to install the cover in about 30 minutes, most of the time spent aligning the rails the way I wanted. Took it for a test drive right after, and loved how it looked and performed, very little bounce or flapping, very tight across the bed. Had a significant rain shower pass through while I was driving, so I was able to see how well it did with water leakage. Only had a few drops inside, mostly because the water splashed up from the road, where an old 5th wheel bracket used to be (holes in the bed), but not along the edges or front of the bed, those were dry. Great product, would recommend this to anyone needing a rolled up tonneau.

This is my second cover on a second truck. To me this is the best cover for the money. Etrailer is great to work with and great customer service.
Chris R - 09/29/2021Review from a similar TruXedo TruXport Tonneau Cover in Tonneau Covers
I was looking for a roll up cover for my truck to have the flexibility of security and be able to haul something large if needed. I did a lot of research and was impressed with the TruXport cover because of the ease of installation and the price.
I was also pleased with the level of service. There were follow up emails from etrailer letting me know the product shipped, the estimated delivery date and reference numbers if I had questions. When the cover arrived I installed it in about 40 minutes including unpacking and checking all of the parts. So far I like the way the cover looks and am very happy with the purchase.
Review from a similar TruXedo TruXport Tonneau Cover in Tonneau Covers
Great value. I do not have any disappointments in this product. It has seen over 40k miles in the last year, literately running from coast to coast. Highly recommend for those with goosenecks and fifth-wheels, I have both. It is so easy to cover the bed when I drop the trailer and it looks like a quality product... because it is.
