Best and worst Tonneau cover for Wintery Conditions

[GarageMahal]

Let me tell you, that frunk does not open with a couple inches of snow on it

The motors are kinda wimpy.

The worst part of the whole thing is the snow/ice never really melts off it. Hopefully you have a dark color to help the sun melt the snow or you have a garage.

That said these are relatively minor complaints. I love the truck, it’s a beast in the snow with just the OEM AT tires.

So I guess I will keep the snow brush in the cab! Now that I think about it I better buy one for the Lightning.

I’ve been considering the BAK Revolver X4S tonneau cover. I’ll be doing a lot of skiing this winter and have seen a few videos claiming they are hard or impossible to open in freezing weather. Anyone have experience with this cover? Is a tri or quarter fold a better option for winter weather? Looking for a hard cover.

I’ve had the icing / freezing problem with 2 different retractable tonneau’s on my last 2 super duties one pace Edwards the other retrax. The worst is a rain or wet snow followed by a hard freeze and little sun - not all that uncommon in New England. the solution is a small space heater in the bed to warm up the cover. I’ve got both a small electric and small propane heater for the job. This assumes you can open the cover, or have strategically positioned the heater outside of the bed of the truck before the freeze event. Takes about 30-60 minutes to unthaw.
