Best Ford Maverick Bed Covers

Bed Cover Benefits

Though we’ve already touched on this topic briefly, let’s dig into the key benefits of installing a tonneau cover on your Ford Maverick. 

First, let’s discuss weather resistance. In stock form, your Maverick’s bed is completely exposed, subjecting the cargo to rain, snow, dirt, or any other extreme weather condition. Whenever you’re transporting sensitive items, like luggage, cardboard boxes, furniture, or electronics, a drive through an unexpected rainstorm can leave your valuables with permanent damage. Tonneau covers help to guard against said damages, featuring water-resistant constructions and perimeter seals to keep your valuables clean and dry, no matter the weather.  

Next, let’s cover security. With an exposed cargo area, your valuables in the bed are highly subject to thieves. If left unattended for five minutes or less, a thief can lock onto your valuables in the bed and make off with your cargo. Tonneau covers hide your valuables out of sight, acting as a theft deterrent. Additionally, several bed covers are lockable, preventing unauthorized bed access! With your bed cover closed and tailgate locked, items in the bed are safer than those in the cab. 

Other benefits include increased aerodynamics, sleek styling, and more! So the real question isn’t should you buy a tonneau cover, but why wouldn’t you?

Bed Cover Styles

Bed covers come in all shapes, sizes, and price points, ranging from cost-effective soft covers to costly power-retractable units. Which setup is right for you? Let’s go over the various tonneau cover styles we offer on RealTruck, their benefits, and the unique characteristics of each. 

• Hard Folding: These rigid, hard tonneau covers offer exceptional security and utility, featuring multiple (typically three) hinged aluminum or fiberglass-reinforced polycarbonate (FRP) top panels. 

• Roll-Up: A sleek and easy-to-use soft cover featuring an intuitive roll-up design and canvas/vinyl construction. These covers may or may not feature vulcanized aluminum/polycarbonate slats for added rigidity.

• Soft Folding: Similar to hard folding bed covers, soft folding covers feature several panels that fold onto one another, exposing your Maverick’s cargo area. However, unlike hard covers, soft folding covers feature a soft canvas or aluminum tarp stretched over a rigid, hinged aluminum frame.  

• Retractable: Secure and intuitive; retractable tonneau covers feature aluminum or polycarbonate slat construction that rolls into an integrated canister either manually or via an electric motor. 

• One-Piece: A robust, hard-shelled tonneau cover featuring a one-piece ABS plastic or fiberglass construction. This style features clamshell-style operation with bulkhead-mounted hinges and integrated shocks. Though highly secure and weather-resistant, one-piece tonneau covers are typically expensive. Additionally, they often require removal to haul oversized cargo.
