Hey Jackie. The Westin Hard Tri-Fold Tonneau Cover item # W23VM weighs 60 lbs. This cover has been confirmed to fit the 2025 Ford F-150 with a 5-1/2' bed. This is a low profile tri-folding hard tonneau cover that is made of fiberglass and has aluminum rails.
The etrailer Hard Tonneau Cover item # e63DR, you were also looking at, weighs 68 lbs. It will also fit a 2025 Ford F-150 with a 5-1/2' bed.
What all do you haul around in your F-150's bed?

The description of the 23 vm says no need for drain tubes but the description by the installer said you have to drill holes in the bed for drain tubes. One customer even said drain tubes were too short. Help me understand this please
