The flush-mounted Extang Xceed hard-folding truck bed cover is a seamless storage and security solution designed and engineered to greater expectations, offering full bed access when open and a stylish, polished look when closed.

When it comes to stowing large cargo, the Extang Xceed lives up to its name. Its unique four-panel design folds all the way up to the back window to allow complete, full-bed access while reducing the overall height when open.

Leveraging Extang’s industry-first Secure Rotary Release Latching System, which encases the operation cable, the Xceed offers tamper-proof security. It’s topped off with a matte-black finish and an EnduraCoat moisture-proof covering for added weather resistance.

Features

  • Aluminum panels and full perimeter frame provide exceptional durability and load capacity.
  • Unique four-panel construction reduces overall height when open.
  • Quick-release support rods securely hold cover at an upright 90 degrees.
  • Exclusive EnduraCoat moisture-proof covering and all-new extruded side seals keep water out and gear safe.
  • Matte-black finish and textured powder-coated aluminum frame/hinges for extra wear resistance and protection.
