    I am looking for something that would go on quickly/easily, as i don't need it on all the time. I have hte t slots up top, just want to be able to pull my camper and put some bikes (mainly kids bikes) and leave my bed space for our camping totes etc.

    This is our setup. We also pull a travel trailer, so this was the best way for us to haul 4 bikes. Products are Retrax bed cover, Rhino Rack towers and cross bars and Swagman bike trays.

    I believe its 300 lbs. static and 150-180 while moving. I'd have to refer to my material. I can tell you that we've done thousands of miles set up just the way you see it in the picture.

    UnderCover Flex, mud flaps, Beat Sonic amp, Predator side steps. To come... heritage grille and 20in light bar
    I use the Elevate rack with an Undercover Flex tri-fold cover. Works great and easy on/off as needed.

    I have the SyneticUSA cover and rack. It can hold more weight if you install the cross bars. I put bikes in the bed with the cover open which requires me to put the bike in from the side of the bed so I left the cross bars off. This setup has been perfect for me.

    did this for when we are camping I can load the kids kiyaks on the top. And skis for our winter trips. Thinking of selling it and getting a smartcap or similar for my working dog….

    Just getting started...
    I have an American Roll Cover with the Yakima HD towers and HD Bars. Currently it is set up with a ski rack to carry fishing poles to/from the beach. In the future we will add some bike racks and maybe a RTT. Sorry, don't have any pictures of it currently.

    I really like the flexibility of having the retractable cover with multiple locking positions combined with the T-slot rails. With the longer bed (6.5'), I could really run some low and high towers concurrently to create a multiple level system but I don't have that need yet.
