When it comes to shopping for Chevy tonneau covers in VA there are many options to choose from, and many places you can purchase through, but before you can choose what and where you need to understand some key things about any potential tonneau cover for your Chevy so you don’t make a costly mistake. From Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, Richmond, Newport News, Roanoke, Charlottesville, Lynchburg, Suffolk, Harrisonburg, Alexandria and beyond, Stowe has you covered!
When it comes to tonneau covers and your Chevy truck be sure to choose your tonneau cover wisely. We have created a list of information below you should consider when buying your next and maybe only Chevy tonneau cover you will ever need.
Sure, it’s true, almost all tonneau cover manufacturers that build covers for Chevy trucks claim that their product is durable, but our experience with products we touch each and every day tells us this isn’t the case, in fact in most cases the truth is very far from the claim. So, when it comes to durability you need to do your research. When looking at durability in your Chevy tonneau cover, whether you need it to stand up to the sometime harsh Virginia climate or any other states climate for that matter, it all comes to down to the construction of the individual components that make up the entire cover. Garbage in, garbage out as the old saying goes. You want to make sure that each, and every component is manufactured with the highest quality materials and are machined, molded, extruded and assembled to exacting standards. Any weakness in any or all of these leads to an inferior finished product, one that will have your Chevy tonneau cover failing quickly or prematurely. Nobody needs that.
When we set out to build the World’s best Chevy tonneau cover, we set some high standards and refused to compromise on them, no matter the cost. Simply put there were enough sub-par tonneau covers you could buy for your Chevy truck, the market didn’t need more of the same, it needed innovation in an industry that has sat still for decades.
Our company leaders are Detroit experienced with extensive tenure in the OEM automotive design and manufacturing market working in the auto industry. Everything our cover is, and does, is done so though a different lens than the other Chevy tonneau cover manufacturers or resellers. We understand OEM design and quality that’s why you will always hear us talking about our advanced components and manufacturing process, things like OEM quality double bulb sealing gaskets as opposed to other tonneau cover manufacturers that use “foam seals” etc. Each and every component we integrate onto our tonneau covers are OEM industrial automotive grade and designed with true form, fit and function commensurate with OEM direct standards.
We live in a time where businesses have become used to taking advantage or our limited attention span. We see it all the time, like magicians their sleight of hand is so subtle even experience buyers fall prey to unscrupulous claims and statements backed up by advertising sleight of hand. When it comes to durability claims and Chevy tonneau cover manufacturers and their advertising, it’s everywhere. We have seen examples of manufacturers using small sledgehammers “lightly” hitting their covers on top of the truck side bed rails instead of the middle of the tonneau cover panels to show how tough their covers are, but we all know when you hit the cover on top of the bed rail, the only durability you are demonstrating is that of your Chevy truck and we know that’s built Chevy Tough. When it comes to durability and indestructibility, we here at Stowe are extremely proud of our accomplishments and have a performed an indestructibility demo to show you just how tough our covers are.

One of the core tenants of our mission here at Stowe Cargo when designing and manufacturing our Chevy tonneau covers is that we do so as if we were Chevy itself designing, manufacturing and installing their OEM tonneau cover for it’s line of tough Chevy trucks. Chevy has a long lineage of designers that have produced some of the nicest looking trucks in the market that can take an absolute beating and stand the test of time. Chevy designers have designed and built trucks over the years that you can take to work and to the big dance, whatever that may be. When we design our Chevy tonneau covers they are specifically designed in terms of form, fit and function to do the same. They need to be tough as the Chevy you drive, but elegant enough you can drive the truck to any event, that special night out, or even your honeymoon!
Don’t be fooled with tonneau and toolbox combinations claiming to be one product, they are nothing more than a tonneau cover and a separate toolbox with an afterthought mating solution typically using inferior one size fits all sealing and security. You typically see cheap foam strips and gaskets with mating bars to connect the separately manufactured and sourced components. This process is riddled with points of failure in terms of water leakage, durability, longevity and security. These are the types of covers horror stories are made of.
With the Stowe 2 in 1 Chevy Tonneau Cover you have access to the world’s first tonneau cover with toolbox that was designed and manufactured as a combination right from the start, just as the OEM would have done at the factory. This gives you a lot of advantages, without having to mate different components onsite after manufacturing, you can custom design and fit the components together as one system and manufacture it that way. Without two disparate systems, your Stowe Cargo Chevy Tonneau cover gives you the most sealed and secured truck box and toolbox in the market, ever. Our system is not only water resistant or watertight as the other manufacturers claim, but we are also truly weathertight. We have sealed your Chevy truck and toolbox from the elements, whether raining down on top of, or across the cover with windblown rain, snow or ice. You can expect a dry, clean workbox and truck box with your Stowe Chevy tonneau cover installed properly, for years and years to come.
