Bak Bakflip G2 Version Folding Truck Bed Cover Review
There are two frontline concerns when the topic revolves around truck bed covers: it's either challenging to get at stuff in the bed or they make it too easy to break into your cargo area. BAK resolved both issues with the G2 version of the BakFlip truck bed cover. Flip it back toward the cab and it acts to protect the cab's rear window, or deter theft by locking it all the way forward to the tailgate.
Fit out your pickup with the BAK BakFlip and savor hard cover peace of mind and security without sacrificing bed access. Fold the BakFlip into its forward-most position where it can be locked in place, or flip back to protect the back window from accidental breakage. Innovative lockable arms fix the cover when it's folded into the rearmost position. Can be purchased with an optional BAKRak Truck Rack to really customize that cargo area. Want total truck bed access? You can remove the entire BakFlip from your pick-up quickly with the turn of a few wing nuts. Completely weather-proof, BAK's proprietary weather stripping is nearly impervious to both rain and snow. On top of that, your Bakflip tonneau will neither shrink nor expand with changing temperatures.
The cover is made out of an ABS plastic/polymer laminate that shoulders up to 200lbs of evenly spread out weight. The slightly rough-textured/dimpled surface of the BAK BakFlip G2 compares to that of most door handles, side-view mirrors and bed caps found on any of today's passenger trucks. Hardened to defy harmful ultraviolet rays, the BakFlip won't crack, warp, fade, rust or corrode. The perfect companion to truck bed liners and snug-fitting bed rail covers and tailgate covers. Instead of old, porous metal hinges, the panels are linked together utilizing a broadloom EPDM rubber seal made to outlast your pickup truck and not spring a leak. BAK's liberal warranty establishes the G2 version of the Bakflip as a must-have for 2009 and beyond.
