I got mine from John Kennedy (www.kennedydiesel.com (http://www.kennedydiesel.com) - 715-255-9433) in Loyal Wisconsin. I think he advertises on this site, he is excellent to deal with.


The price is pretty high on these covers, but they are really well built. I don't regret buying one !! I had the side rails on my ReTrax sprayed with Line-X when I had my truck sprayed, which is also done over the rails so it matches well.

You can also go straight to Retrax for your cover. Their Web Page is

I also bought my Retrax from JK (http://www.kennedydiesel.com/detail.cfm?ID=58) and at the time his price was better than buying from the RETRAX site. I ordered from John on Monday my Retrax arrived direct from the factory on Thursday. http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Cool.gif

Max Power has them... And I think if you PM him... He will beat the others prices... Just a guess...... You can get a better deal from dealers than you can from retrax themselves....

I am in the market for a nice cover also, and the Retrax looked REAL nicehttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Thumbs Up.gif......but not for that price!! You can get a Truxedo rollup for half the price! They're not as nice as the Retrax, but for the money they're looking better & better.

You get what you pay for http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Approve.gif You would have a hard time finding a Retrax owner that would go back to anything else.

You have that right MP... They are pricey, but they have the quality... 3 people I work with bought them after they saw mine.... Edited by: ISurvivedNMU

I had a Pace Edwards on my 98 K3500 CC/LB Dually and it was nice but the RETRAX is even better (IMHO). http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Approve.gif

Bought a Retrax from Pepperidge, a vendor on this site. He did a fair deal, great to work with and it is an excellent product. It is worth every dollar and I would do it again.
