Benefits of Tonneau Covers
Tonneau covers can prove their value in many applications. One of the biggest benefits of bed covers for trucks is the fact that they provide protection. Working trucks commonly carry extremely valuable tools and materials, and having them out in the open is an invitation for theft. With tonneau covers, the contents of the truck bed are secure and invisible to prowlers looking for an easy score. Regarding protection, the contents of the truck bed aren’t the only thing protected by a high-quality cover. The truck bed alongside its contents is protected from the elements, ultimately increasing the truck’s resale value. Another benefit of having a tonneau cover installed on your truck is the fact that it can significantly reduce drag, making your truck use less fuel than usual. This is one of the most underrated advantages of tonneau covers, but if you’re using your truck for long-distance drives often, you’ll quickly notice big savings in fuel costs alone. Lastly, having tonneau covers on your truck will improve your truck’s overall appearance. Let's face it - truck beds aren’t the highlight of any truck and you’ll never hear anyone say “That’s a fine-looking truck bed right there”. With a sleek design that matches the rest of the truck’s exterior, a tonneau cover will provide protection, reduce fuel consumption, and make your truck look much better than it did before. At the AmericanTrucks collection, you’ll be able to find thousands of bed covers for trucks, made specifically for the most popular truck models out there. We carry both hard and soft tonneau covers that are ideal for any type of application.

Protect your precious cargo while dressing up your pickup's exterior with truck bed covers. A high-quality bed cover gives you a weather-tight location to carry cargo while also allowing you to accessorize your pickup. Whether you want to invest in a Sierra tonneau cover or you decide on something such as a soft bed topper that creates more space for storage purposes, you can protect your truck in exactly the way you like. Consider the many different bed cover options available at American Trucks to help you protect and accessorize your pickup so you can drive with confidence.
Hard Covers for Truck Beds
When choosing a bed cover for your pickup truck, hard covers are some of the most desirable options overall. Hard covers are tough and reliable and provide excellent weather-resistance as well. We offer a mix of tri-fold and hinged hard tonneau covers to choose from. The tri-fold covers provide multiple cargo configurations to work with, allowing you to access part of the bed without opening up the entire box if you like. Hinged tonneau covers aren't as adjustable as tri-fold options, but they are more durable and offer the highest level of protection. Hinged covers also make accessing the cargo within the truck bed quick and easy to do. Hard covers for truck beds are more costly than soft options are, but they are also longer lasting and they offer a higher level of protection. Consider getting hard covers for your truck if you want to:
- protect your cargo at the highest level
- rapidly open and close your truck bed
- lock your truck bed reliably
- achieve the highest level of weather resistance
Hard tonneau covers can be more difficult to install, but once they are in position they remain there for many years. If you invest in a hard cover you'll love how protected your ride feels. Hard tonneau covers are often made from ABS or aluminum and can be had in different styles and form-factors. Be careful to select a cover that's designed for your truck model and bed length. Along with tonneau covers you can get Chevy Silverado body trim to dress up your ride and make it stand out as well. Consider investing in exterior accents to give you creative control over the look of your pickup.
Lockable Tonneau Covers
When you want to secure the cargo you're carrying around, nothing beats the protection offered by lockable tonneau covers. These special covers are rugged and designed to lock shut to your truck bed. Pair them with a locking tailgate and you have a secure location to put tools, equipment, groceries and anything else you want to carry around. Most locking covers are hard and they lock firmly in position when you're using them. Many of our covers are designed to install quickly and easily so they can be put on in just a few minutes. When shopping for tonneau covers search for the right size and fit, but also the right style and list of features. You want covers that will secure your truck bed while still allowing it to function the way you want it to. When you can achieve that balance you'll enjoy what truck bed covers have to offer you. Also consider different truck bed accessories to help you customize the rear end of your pickup even more, and to make your truck into the capable machine you want it to be. Making a few simple upgrades to your truck's exterior will make it more functional for you, more stylish and more enjoyable to use overall.
