I have yet to put it one since I'm waiting to LineX the bed.

It used to say 415.99 but if you select the item and go to checkout the price changes to a lower price. They were not allowed to show the actual selling price but now it appears they cant discount them as much

Hey Jake. I got them from the link below. They are aftermarket flares that I had a local body shop paint and install for me.

Thanks for different links guys. Remember I do have a Flareside truck, so I need one that will fit a 6 1/2 foot bed.

Thanks a bunch for the incredible help!

The Access cover is great. 20k miles on mine, 2nd winter, velcro holding up very well.

So is the Lorado a better cover than the original Access roll up cover?

The are the same except for one point. If you look at the Access, it looks like a "box" sitting on the rails (__[ ]__). The Lorado is a low profile version (__/ \__). It still sticks up, but not as bad. Look at the pic's above closely.

I've had mine over 2 years now, and so far it's ok.

My velcro was replaced on both sides due to seperating and the rubber seal between the bed and the side rails was adjusted once.

So far the cover itself is holding up great, and I don't treat it with anything at all.

Arrow Lorado is the way to go

My brother-in-law has the premier ed of the access covers and he said that he doesn't like the way it looks now and wishes that he had gotten the Lorado instead...I told him to get the Lorado, just like I told him to get a Ford and not that damn chevy.
When you buy try and bargin a discount, I did... I got a military discount on mine, saved some bux. (i am military though)
The only thing you will need for the install are a 1 or 2 spring clamps I went to Lowes and got a couple of plastic ones for less than $5
Let me know if you have any other ?'s

Well I went to a couple of places and it looks like the Lorado one will not fit an Flareside wtih a 6.5 foot bed.

So I may have to go with the original access roll up one.

Truck Alterations

I found this site from another thread here. I emailed them yesterday for a price on a Truxedo Lo Pro for a 2007 supercrew 5.5 bed. $351.99 shipped. This is a slightly more expense cover than the Lorado, so you might want to email them or just call for a price.
