Difference Between TruXedo Sentry and Sentry CT Tonneau Cover for 2020 Chevy Silverado 2500

Question:

I have a 2020 Chevy Silverado 2500 and really like the truxedo tonneau covers. I see there's a Sentry and Sentry CT, but I'm not quite sure what the difference between the two covers is. Would you be able to tell me so I can make the right choice for the right one to buy?

That's a good question because there is only one difference between the TruXedo Sentry and TruXedo Sentry CT covers for your 2020 Chevy Silverado 2500, which is the material that the cover is made from.

The Sentry cover is made of an industrial-strength leather-grain vinyl fabric, while the Sentry CT's cover is made of a woven polyester and vinyl fabric which is five layers, which is designed to resist dirt. This means the cover of the Sentry CT is going to stay cleaner for a longer period of time so you don't have to clean it as frequently as you would with the standard Sentry.

Apart from that, both the Sentry and Sentry CT give you a very low-profile cover which is just 1/2" above the bed rails of your Chevy. This is a great feature because it helps reduce the amount of wind drag but also, it just looks really cool. These covers just clamp onto your bed rails so you aren't going to have to drill, have seals to keep your bed dry, and are made in the USA.

The correct tonneau cover for your 2020 Chevy Silverado is going to depend on your truck's bed size:
