Questions about the Sport Trac Tonneau Cover by Lazer Lite
Our Customers have frequently asked these questions about the Sport Trac Truck Bed Cover:
What is the Lazer Lite Sport Trac Tonneau Cover?
It is an aftermarket cover - a truck bed cover for the rear of your pickup/SUV.
It is designed to keep the elements out of the back of your pickup/SUV. It
is also used to provide security to your belongings.
What is so great about this truck bed cover?
Several years ago all we were seeing for hard tonneau covers were
fiberglass truck bed covers. These were heavy and bulky and they did
not look good on the back of a pick-up. They looked like you were carrying a
coffin! They were very difficult to remove and rarely fit the look of the
truck. Furthermore, fiberglass covers rarely were the same from cover to
cover. They varied in thickness and thus the fit wasn't the same from one
cover to the next.
If you take some time to read on the Internet about the Ford OEM tonneau
covers you will find there are complaints in the forums of it leaking. Our
tonneau cover doesn't leak. You will also find that that Ford's tonneau
cover weighs about 70 lbs. Ours is
about 38 lbs. and removes in less than 1 minute.
What is your tonneau cover made of?
It is made of 2 sheets of aluminum and a two-part filler sound deadening
polyurethane foam. It was designed with the OEM process in mind. The end
product was so unique we obtained a patent for it.
If it's made of aluminum won't it dent easily?
NO!
The top layer is TWICE as thick as the aluminum hood on a Ford F150 pickup.
We have purposely chased after hailstorms to see if the hail would damage it
and it didn't. It also passed the tests that the OEM's use for their
body panels.
Is it strong?
Yes. We have had 10 of us stand on it at one time and the cover has not
failed.
What do you mean 'laser cut' for precision?
Each tonneau cover is cut out by a precision laser. This laser allows us
to cut each tonneau cover to within .003". (That is 3/1000ths of an inch!)
Here is a photo of our lasers used to cut out these truck bed covers

Is it easy to remove the Sport Trac tonneau cover so that I can haul tall
items?
Yes. Here is a link to an actual video of us removing one from another
model we make (it will take a few moments for the download, please be
patient):
