Ford Ranger Tonneau Cover

There is something you should know when looking to purchase a Ford Ranger Tonneau Cover. Take your time to think about how and what you use your truck for. Quarter tons such as the Ford Ranger have limited space in the cargo area. If you need to haul items such as sheets of plywood or other similar cargo, you won't be able to with most hinged truck covers such as the fibreglass type because the gas shocks that hold up the cover get in the way. Now I am not saying if you are looking for a Ford Ranger tonneau cover that the hinged truck covers are no good. You just need to think about what you use the truck for before you buy. If you don't use your truck for bigger cargo then a hinged cover is fine and the fibreglass lids look terrific painted up to match the truck.


If you do use your truck for larger cargo, you will find there are many alternatives for a Ford Ranger tonneau cover. There are different categories to choose from away from the hinged truck cover. There are lots of roll ups, folding covers and even retractable tonneau covers. Your choices are many.


I remember when I first saw a roll up truck cover on a pickup truck. My first thoughts were what a pain in the butt if you have to take that thing off every time you use your cargo area. Now that I am much more educated on these covers my thoughts are more like what a great idea. Most of these covers roll up in seconds allowing you full access to your cargo area. Even the bows that support the tarp roll up with the tarp causing no problem what so ever.


More and more people are putting truck bed covers on their trucks. When you place a Ford Ranger tonneau cover on your truck you won't be alone. The advantages are numerous. I don't have to remind you about the price of fuel these days. Although vehicle manufacturers are making trucks lighter than years ago and engine performance is a long way from where it use to be. This all helps to save fuel consumption but we are still looking for ways to help save fuel. Purchasing a Ford Ranger tonneau cover will help on the aerodynamics of your Ranger and allow the wind to pass over your truck instead of meeting resistance at your tailgate. The more you drive, especially at higher speeds such as highway driving, the more you will save.



Now fuel savings isn't the only advantage of installing a Ford Ranger tonneau cover on your truck. These covers are great to keep the weather off your cargo. That may be reason enough to purchase one. There is also security for your cargo to think about. Although the hard hinged covers, the hard folding covers, and the retractables all have locking mechanisms on them for added security, the roll ups add a great amount of security just by keeping your cargo out of sight. Looks alone will impress anyone enough to buy a Ford Ranger tonneau cover.


Whether you are looking for a great new look, added cargo security, weather protection or maybe you are fuel consumption motivated, you will be impressed with the purchase of a Ford Ranger tonneau cover.
