Question:
2017 f250 short bed. Im researching retractable covers, and would like to know how this one stacks up against Roll-n-loc? I have a friend that has had a Roll-n-loc for 17 years, and still working. I just purchased a 5th wheel hitch and frame brackets from you folks, and you seem to know your stuff.... Also, how is the fit at tailgate? Old Roll-n-loc had a bracket to mount to tailgate.

Expert Reply:
Retrax, manufacturer of RetraxONE MX Hard Tonneau Cover # RT60383 for your 2017 Ford F-250 short bed, is a leader in the Tonneau cover industry. They are actually the parent company of many other well-known Tonneau cover manufacturers.
The Retrax covers are, in a word, impressive. When we first started carrying this line the Retrax folks came here to train us on their products. They are well-made here in the US and carry a limited lifetime warranty which is a reflection of how well they are made.
They also have an aluminum version # RT80383. These covers do not have a piece that attaches to the tailgate. The covers extend all the way to the tailgate but are secured at the side rails of the cover. I have linked a video and instructions for additional detail.
