Durability – Your Ford Tonneau Cover Needs to be Extremely Durable to Withstand the Harsh SD Climate
Sure, it’s true, almost all tonneau cover manufacturers that build covers for Ford 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 Ford tonneau cover, whether you need it to stand up to the sometime harsh South Dakota 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 Ford tonneau cover failing quickly or prematurely. Nobody needs that.
Our Ford Tonneau Covers are Built Tough so you can be Proud
When we set out to build the World’s best Ford 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 Ford 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 Ford 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.
When it Comes to Buying Your Ford Tonneau Cover Don’t be Fooled by Savvy Marketing Practices
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 Ford 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 Ford truck and we know that’s built Ford 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.

Don’t Let Our Good Looks Deceive You
One of the core tenants of our mission here at Stowe Cargo when designing and manufacturing our Ford tonneau covers is that we do so as if we were Ford itself designing, manufacturing and installing their OEM tonneau cover for it’s line of tough Ford trucks. Ford 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. Ford 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 Ford tonneau covers they are specifically designed in terms of form, fit and function to do the same. They need to be tough as the Ford you drive, but elegant enough you can drive the truck to any event, that special night out, or even your honeymoon!
At Stowe Cargo we Took it One Step Further, Our Ford Tonneau Cover Isn’t Just a Tonneau Cover, it’s a Cargo Management System With it’s One Rail Integrated Tool Box and Divider System!
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 Ford 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 Ford 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 Ford 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 Ford tonneau cover installed properly, for years and years to come.
What Should You be Looking for When Buying a Ford Tonneau Cover
Like everything in life, the devil is in the details! When it comes to purchasing your Ford tonneau cover, finding the right place to purchase is key for sure, you want a tonneau cover manufacturer, reseller or dealer that will stand behind the product they sell and offer great support during and after the purchase. Unfortunately, this is the first, and only criteria many people look at when buying a tonneau cover for their Ford truck. This, however, should be just the beginning of your specification process.
In fact, the search for your next, and hopefully only, Ford tonneau cover should start with finding the right tonneau cover for your Ford truck, and then finding the right place to purchase that cover. But just what do you need to consider when comparing a potential tonneau cover for your Ford? Let’s take a look.
- Any great product needs to have a great support and customer service team backing it up
- Any Ford tonneau cover you are considering needs to have had all of its features designed and manufactured together, no afterthoughts here. Shortcutting by mating disparate systems from different design and manufacturing processes will most certainly lead to trouble and a very costly mistake.
- Any tonneau cover you are considering for your Ford truck should be highly engineered not just built or manufactured. This ensures you have a great experience with your tonneau cover, it will give you the highest probability of a long product life
- Look for Ford tonneau covers that are engineered by automotive industry experts with tenure in the industry.
- Look at each component from the cover itself, to the locks, seals and gaskets, hinges, pistons, etc., to ensure you are getting stated high quality OEM automotive grade components. Take a moment to understand the technology used in each component to feel comfortable that the tonneau cover you choose will have only the best components the industry has to offer leading to the most dry, secure, durable and indestructible tonneau cover for your truck
- Look for verifiable evidence that any Ford tonneau cover you are considering buying has the quality characteristics you need, you want your cover to last as long as your Ford truck, you want it built tough! The types of evidence you need are customer testimonials, preferably video from genuine clients of the product. This way you can see them speak, hear their tone and decide if they are being authentic. Second look to demo videos from the manufacturer in terms of durability. We have run numerous tests on our Ford tonneau covers, one of our favorites is our “sledgehammer” video test {insert link to video}. In our video you can see one of our sturdy employees absolutely trying to destroy our cover with a very large, long handled sledgehammer pounding on it right in the dead center of the cover, it’s “weak” spot. You can see that the cover comes out unscathed. There isn’t vendor out there that would dare hot their cover like this, even the diamond plate covers would take a beating without any flexibility to bend, it would be destroyed, but not the Stowe 2 in 1, it’s cover is made from many layers of high-performance material that offer the most strength of any cover but the flexibility to allow it to bend but not break. Not only that its so sturdy you can walk a whole workforce across the cover, we did that too! When you look for video confirmation of a cover’s durability make sure you become the skeptic and ask yourself are they testing the weak spot so we can see the worst case scenario? Most, if not all tests you see online simply test the material at the strong point of the cover, the top of the bed rail, tail gate or other mounting point. Make sure you hold every tonneau cover manufacturer accountable to their durability claims.
- Look that the features of your potential Ford tonneau cover meet most if not all of your needs. If you need a toolbox, get a toolbox that was designed into the tonneau cover. If you need lockable security than make sure you get automotive OEM grade cylinder locks that will double as protection from theft, but from the elements as well keeping out ice and snow. Looking for accessibility than make sure any pistons and hinges are tucked out of the way, so you get access to more of your truck box or toolbox.
- Look for additional testimonials and reviews. An odd negative review may not be something to worry about but if you see a trend in reviews that note a specific failure or frustration than be quick to take note, it could be something you may experience if you by that cover, the other side of the coin is that if in general the reviews are very positive you can perhaps expect to have that same experience. When it comes to your Ford tonneau cover make sure you pay close attention to any mentions of failures, leaking, sand and dirt penetration. These are red flags!
- Make sure you see photographs and videos of the tonneau cover on a Ford truck, you want to make sure it was built for your Ford truck and not just a one size fits all installation of a “tonneau cover” we see this all of the time. You want to make sure that it not only works well but it looks like it was made at the Ford factory to fit the truck.
Remember this is a large investment and you will own your truck for a long time, make sure you get a Ford tonneau cover that will stand the test of time right beside your truck. The last thing you want to do is have to buy another one in short order because you didn’t take the time to sort through the information before buying.
