Hey Ty,
I am not sure which exact Extang cover you had previously, but I do know the Westin covers are just as good of quality. The Westin cover # W65FM is made of a double coated vinyl which is great for not only rain, but cold temperatures and UV protection. Most of the newer Extang covers are made out of a similar vinyl material, so the Westin is going to hold up great compared to Extang.
Even though Westin is new to the tonneau cover game, the company has been around for a long time and we have carried their parts for almost as long! Known more for ladder racks, running boards, brush guards, they have a great reputation for quality.
Do you know what model cover you had from Extang? That way I can get a better idea and compare.
