Uses of Tonneau Covers
A truck tonneau cover offers a variety of uses. Each design has its own advantages for the tonneau owner. The most common uses include secure storage, additional function and creating a custom truck look. Tonneaus are used in almost every imaginable way. Some owners use them daily and others only on trips.

Tonneau Covers provide protected truck bed storage.
Storage: Whether you choose a hard tonneau or soft tonneau, both offer truck bed storage. Keep your gear safe and dry under the tonneau cover. Hard tonneau’s generally offer additional security and soft tonneaus generally offer additional function.

Roll up truck bed covers easily tuck away for larger items.
Additional Function: Have an expensive audio system? then perhaps a hinging hard tonneau is for you, it offers lockable storage with a hinging design for access and keeps your system dry. Looking for additional function such as hauling an ATV or a new fridge for your kitchen, then a roll-up tonneau, folding or retracting tonneau might better suit your needs.

Tonneaus provide a clean, custom, finished look to your truck!
Custom Truck Look: Its almost impossible to have a custom truck look without a tonneau cover. Its doable, but there is something about adding a tonneau cover that completes the look of a custom truck. You can be a baseball player, but you look more like one if you have a ball cap on and bat or glove in your hand. A tonneau adds personality and a custom look to a truck. There’s just no getting around it.
There are many more uses, depending on your needs. I’m sure you can add a few of your own to our list. Browse all of RealTruck’s tonneau covers.
