Comparing Access and Truxedo Tonneau Covers for a 2011 Ford Ranger with a 6 Foot Bed
Question:
What roll up tonneau cover do you think will work best on my 2011 ranger? Ive been looking at access a220101090 or truxedo tx250101. Is one going to keep the water out of my box better and does one have a better warranty?

For me, between the Access Cover, # A22010109 and the Truxedo, # TX250101, I would go with the Access cover because it is as low profile design. It sits only 1/2 inch above the bed rails. The Truxedo cover is 1-1/2 inches above the rails. Given that the prices are about the same, what would sell me on the Access cover is that low profile design.
In terms of keeping out water, the Access cover comes with a weather seal that runs along the truck bed sides and you can add a tailgate gasket, # 834532001583. The Truxedo cover also has a weather seal for the sides. To add a tailgate seal to this cover, you would use # TX1703206. So given both of these, they would both keep the bed mostly dry though it is always possible for water to find its way in.
As for warranty, the Truxedo has a 5-year warranty that covers all parts, including the fabric. The Access cover has a 3 year limited warranty that covers everything, including the fabric. So Truxedo has the advantage in this department.
