Gator CoversETX Soft Roll Up Truck Bed Tonneau | 133105 | Fits 2019-2023 Ford Ranger 5' 1" Bed (61'')

Overall ImpressionsI am very pleased with the cover. I spent a bit of time looking into various options. I wanted something that was easy to remove should I require full access to my bed and was not bulky. I read a couple of online comments stating this cover was not ‘Designed’ for this car (Ford Ranger 2020). Not sure what cover they fitted but it was not this one, it’s a perfect fit and obviously designed for the Ranger.Installations:The instruction come in 3 parts (1. Padding, 2. Mounts, 3.Rails/Cover) with no derails of order in which to do stuff. The following is my recommendation of best approach.1. Bedliner (if applicable): If you have a bed liner (I do) slide it forward 12/18 inches, no need to completely remove. (If you can’t figure out how, pay someone to fit the cover)2. Install foam corner padding back left and right (This helps to keep out the rain)3. Install back and front mount supports.4. Bedliner (if applicable): Put the bed liner back in place.5. Install side rails (Use the supplied poorly designed clamps)6. Install back foam padding (a long piece of foam that sticks to the top of the bed at the back)7. Install cover8. Adjust tension to close cover9. DonePros:1. Low Profile and clean lines.2. Easy to install3. Easy to adjust4. Mostly waterproof. (I could probably make it water proof but consider it not necessary as any small amount of water that does get in will go behind my bedliner)Cons:1. Instructions lacking.2. Not secure, anyone can pull the side Velcro apart and look inside. If you intend to transport and leave expensive goods in the bed I would look at more secure options.3. Included clamps work but are very fiddley and poorly designed. (My wife also thinks they look ugly)4. The cover rails attach to the side of the bed walls overall this reduces the total bed width at the rails by approx 4 to 5 inches. If overall bed width access is important I would get a cover that attached to the top of the bed walls. However, to my eyes they the look less appealing.Final Thoughts.I love the look of this cover. If your priority is clean lines and easy bed access at a price most people will not mind paying I strongly recommend.

So I bought this cuz it was pretty cheap after going to 4 different off road/cover stores, and all of them telling me I can’t have a sport rack AND a tonneau cover. So it was a shake of the dice, but it I bought it, installed it, and it came out looking pretty decent after a few slight mods (just notched the aluminum-pretty hack, but nothing some black silicone won’t fix) I wasn’t too concerned with water getting in, but I’m actually surprised at how little gets in, even without the silicone. Took like 3 hours to install with the “mods”. I would buy it again, but a few months earlier because the off road stores scared me for a few months. I will add a few more things, like putting some bolts and washers in to hold the track more solidly than the brackets that came with it- Not a big deal- and the people saying it doesn’t fit perfectly, the slots to mount it to the front of the truck are all slotted and adjustable, so I don’t get how you couldn’t make the adjustments to get it right… but that’s just me. Look at the other reviews as far as durability goes, but after installing it, I am happy with how it turned out.UPDATE:April 2024A few years later and this is still rolling! Been through heat and freezing temps and it has held up solidly. Velcro still sticks(I keep it rolled up most of the time) AND HAVE DRIVEN THEOUGH DOWNPOURS driving across states and everything under was dry and safe. Would still buy again.

Love the look, lays nice and tight. Tension is adjustable so it pulls tight with no slack. It fits between the rail caps and does not overlap. I would have liked it to be just a little wider to aid with rain protection. Installation was straightforward and my only real complaint are the included clamps to attach it to the bedrails. I could not get them to remain installed no matter how much I tightened them. 2 or more would fall off during a normal drive. I had the bolts tightened as tight as I could get them. Ran through an automatic car wash and all 6 clamps disattached, causing the cover to partially fall into the bed. Ended up going to a hardware store (as another reviewer had done) and purchased 6 small vice grip tools. I used these to reattach the cover and so far they keep it clamped on. I'm not a fan of that method, but it works. The cover itself is well made and of high quality, but the clamps are junk. I tried every which way for 3 days to try to get them to work. Maybe there are some better clamps out there, I just haven't found them yet.

Looks nice on the truck. The installation instructions could have been improved. The pictures are poorly done and not useful. Despite that the cover installation wasn't to complicated. Be sure to check out the installation videos available.Edit 11/4/20 The clamp brackets provided are inadequate & to small. Regardless of how tight you get them they easily fall off when lightly bumped. Lucky for me I had a few left over from my old Ranger that were larger and work well (smaller truck, bigger brackets).

Purchased for my son's truck. He installed himself, looks great and provides excellent cover.
