The Benefits of Rollup Tonneau Covers

March 1st, 2012

You use your truck bed to haul everything from groceries to antiques. But exposing these items to high winds, weather, and whatever else nature throws your way can be extremely harmful.

If only there was an aesthetically pleasing way to protect your items while you haul them…

Oh wait, there is!

A Tonneau Cover helps shield your precious cargo from high winds and weather. Adding one of these covers to your truck is an easy way to make sure nothing disappears from your bed while you’re driving or parked.

These ultra-durable, heavy-duty covers stretch tight over your truck’s metal frame for smooth looks and complete aerodynamics. Plus, soft tonneau covers roll up fast for full-bed access. So they are there when you need them to protect your cargo and they roll up when you need to haul a large load.

Soft tonneau covers are designed with ease of use in mind.

Benefits of Tonneau Covers

•      Organized storage for whatever you’re hauling in your truck bed

•      Keep a lid on loose items

•      Cover from damaging weather conditions, like rain, snow and extreme sun

•      Complete coverage of your payload

Benefits of Installing a Truck Backup Camera

February 24th, 2012

Trucks are great for so many reasons. They are the only vehicle capable of hauling large loads of cargo, they are extremely rugged, they can handle almost any terrain, and so much more. But one thing trucks lack is maneuverability. Pickups, especially large pickups, are not always the easiest vehicles to backup.

With your truck bed loaded to the max, you just can’t see anything in the rear view mirror, so you turn around to make sure everything is all clear. This creates massive blind spots. And these blind spots make backing up a real headache.

There is, however, a simple solution to your problem; you could install an aftermarket license plate backup camera.

Advantages of Truck Backup Cameras

  • Avoid Damage to Your Truck: Back up cameras allow you to avoid those irritating dings and dents.
  • Make Driving Easier: When used along with the rear view mirror, a backup camera allows you to back out of even the tightest spot with ease.
  • Eliminate Blind Spots: The camera transmits a signal to a dash-mounted monitor, allowing drivers to view everything behind them.
  • Increase Safety: Now you can see everything, from toys and trashcans to pets and small children.

If you are interested in having a Pickup Backup Camera or one of our many other Interior Truck Accessories installed in your vehicle, contact Trick Trucks today. We are here for you. All products can be purchased in our showroom and can be professionally installed at all of our twelve locations. If you have any questions, please contact Trick Trucks by calling 1-866-60 TRICK or click here today! Hard to find items (including grilles) are our specialty.

The Benefits of a Class 3 Trailer Hitch

February 9th, 2012

Trailer hitches are given a “class” rating that defines their towing capacity and receiver opening size, with classes range from class I to class V. We have already explained the differences between each type of trailer hitch class. Now, we are going to focus our attention on one hitch in particular – the class 3 hitch.

The Benefits of a Class III Trailer Hitch include:

  • A class 3 heavy-duty hitch is the type of hitch considered for general towing.
  • A class III hitch can handle a gross trailer weight (GTW) of up to 5,000 lbs.
  • A class III towing hitch can handle a maximum tongue weight of 500 lbs.
  • Class III hitches are ideal for towing midsize campers and boats.
  • A class III heavy-duty hitch can be installed on most midsize and full-size pickup trucks, vans and SUVs.

A class 3 hitch is the third lightest hitch on the market. Typically installed on vans, SUVs, and trucks, these hitches are best suited for towing midsize trailers, campers, and boats. For more heavy duty towing, you should consider a class 4 trailer hitch or higher.

To find out if a Class 3 Trailer Hitch is tough enough to handle your towing needs, contact Trick Trucks to talk to one of our experts. Trick Trucks carries an extensive line of towing products, so we know what we are talking about. We sell and install trailer hitches for every make and model vehicle, from cars and small trucks, to large pickups capable of towing boats, campers, RVs, horse trailers and heavy commercial equipment.
