I got mine from Buzz Box liners on the west end and they had some of the best prices around. The customer service was also fantastic. I would not hesitate to go back and do something there again.

I purchased a gator soft roll up cover for my long box from Amazon for $300. Great product for the price. If money is not a concern the maybe a truxedo would fit the bill. I typically try not to purchase from Amazon but if a guy can save $500 then I think twice.

Had an issue with my Truxedo last Fall, local dealer who did the install has reached out to them several times with no luck ....

2020 honda ridgeline. Approx 70 inch length, I'd have to double check. I don't think I'll try to install it myself. I've no experience with them.

This was supposed to be a truck, but it has turned into my wife's 4th child, so I'll have to take it in to get it installed. We bought it in October and have so far put 200 km on it

Raven Truck Accessories gets my vote. Great service and fair pricing.

I think that is what princess auto has for $50

Give them a call.

They are held with 6 clamps. Takes 5 minutes with a 9/16. Dont pay for install at a stealership

I own a small home based business that sells truck accessories. Let me know what type of cover you are looking for and I can give you a quote.

Depends on the style you want and your price point.

I prefer the roll up type because it gives me complete access to the full bed and won't block the rear window.

I have a Freedom EZ Roll from Canadian Tire on my Sierra. Well constructed, extremely easy to install, doesn't leak, minimal fluttering of the cover at highway speeds, quality velcro on the sides, adjustments to increase tension if required. Never adjusted mine yet and it still tight.

Mine is 5 years old, looks and operates like new, I just make sure there isn't any excessive snow build up on it during winter time, otherwise keep it clean as you would your vechicle.

Canadian Tire has them on sale on a regular bases. Check Freedom's website for specific sizes for your truck. CT gave me the wrong size when I ordered on line the first time, no hazzle quick exchange the next day.
