On a 2017+ F-250 or F-350, most wrong orders come from the bed length. The short bed is the same bed whether a listing calls it 6.75 ft, 6'9" or 6'10". The long bed shows up as 8 ft or 8'2". Short-bed and long-bed covers are different part numbers, so start with your bed and then match the model year.

This guide is research-based. We read manufacturer and retailer fitment listings and confirmed every part number below on at least two of them. We have not installed these covers ourselves.

  • Short bed and long bed covers are different parts. Measure if you're not sure; our bed measuring guide shows how.
  • 2017-2022 vs 2023+: for most covers below, the same part number is listed for both, but not every seller lists every year. We quote the narrowest range we found.
  • F-450 pickups: only some listings name the F-450. If you have one, buy a part whose listing includes it.
  • 2016 and older Super Duty trucks use different covers. This guide covers 2017+ only.
  • Toolbox in the bed? Standard covers usually won't clear a crossover toolbox. See our toolbox clearance guide.

Best Overall: BAKFlip MX4

The MX4 is BAK's hard folding cover, and it is our only pick with verified part numbers for both Super Duty beds:

  • 448330, short bed. RealTruck (BAK's parent company) lists it for the 2017-2025 F-250/F-350 6'9" bed. Black Ops Autoworks lists the same part for 2017-2022. We use the narrower 2017-2022; on a 2023 or newer truck, confirm with the seller.
  • 448331, 8 ft bed. RealTruck lists it for the 2017-2026 F-250/F-350/F-450 8 ft bed, and Rack Attack lists it for the 2017-2026 F-250/F-350 8'2" bed.

BAK lists aluminum panels over a high-density core, an automatic latch, a 400 lb rating (evenly distributed), a no-drill install it estimates at under 30 minutes, and a 5-year warranty. The warranty applies to the original buyer and doesn't transfer. RealTruck listed the short-bed cover at about $1,250 and the 8 ft cover at about $1,300 today.

Pros

  • Verified parts for both bed lengths
  • Auto-latch security
  • 400 lb distributed rating
  • 5-year warranty

Cons

  • About $1,250 to $1,300
  • Short-bed year listings vary; confirm 2023+
  • Warranty is not transferable

Hard Cover with Full Bed Access: BAK Revolver X4s (80330)

The Revolver X4s uses vinyl-wrapped aluminum slats that roll toward the cab, so you get a hard cover and the whole bed when it's open. RealTruck lists 80330 for the 2017-2026 F-250/F-350 6'9" bed, and TonneauCovered lists the same part for the 2017-2026 Super Duty 6'10" bed.

BAK rates it at 400 lb distributed, with locking rails, automatic latches and a 5-year limited warranty. Both listings showed about $1,480 today. We only verified the short-bed part. If you have an 8 ft bed, look for the 8 ft listing and confirm its part number before ordering.

Pros

  • Full bed access from a hard cover
  • Listed for 2017-2026 by two sellers
  • 400 lb distributed rating

Cons

  • The most expensive pick, about $1,480
  • 8 ft part not verified here
  • The roll takes some space at the bulkhead

Best Soft Roll-Up: TruXedo Lo Pro

The Lo Pro mounts inside the bed rails, sits about 3/4 inch above the bed and rolls up for full access. Verified parts for both beds:

  • 579101, short bed. RealTruck lists it for the 2017-2026 F-250/F-350 6'9" bed; Waldoch lists it for the 2017-2025 F-250/F-350/F-450 6'9" bed. We use 2017-2025.
  • 579601, 8 ft bed. RealTruck lists it for the 2017-2026 F-250/F-350/F-450 8' bed, and TonneauCovered lists it for the 2017-2026 Super Duty 8'2" bed.

TruXedo backs it with a limited lifetime warranty for the original buyer. RealTruck listed the short-bed version at about $520 and the 8 ft version at about $570 today.

Pros

  • Verified parts for both bed lengths
  • Full bed access when rolled up
  • Low profile, keeps stake pockets usable
  • Limited lifetime warranty

Cons

  • Soft cover security
  • Short-bed 2026 listed by RealTruck only

Best Value: Extang Trifecta 2.0 (92486)

The Trifecta 2.0 is a vinyl tri-fold on an aluminum frame, and it is the lowest-priced pick here. Three sellers list 92486 for the Super Duty short bed: RealTruck (2017-2026, 6'9"), H&H Truck Accessories (2017-2027, 6'10") and TDot Performance (2017-2025, 81.9 inch bed). We use 2017-2025.

It folds toward the cab for about two thirds of the bed, and it comes off without tools. Extang lists triple-fin snap-on seals and a limited lifetime warranty on the frame, clamps, hardware and vinyl. RealTruck and Rack Attack both listed it at about $470 today. We did not verify an 8 ft Trifecta part, so long-bed owners should look at the TruXedo Lo Pro 579601 instead.

Pros

  • About $470
  • Limited lifetime warranty
  • Removes in seconds without tools

Cons

  • Short bed only in this guide
  • About two thirds of the bed when folded
  • Soft cover security

How to Choose a Tonneau Cover for Your F-250 or F-350

Step 1: Confirm your bed length

Covers are sold by bed length, and listings name the two Super Duty beds in different ways. Use this table to translate:

What you haveWhat listings may call itOur verified parts
Short bed6.75 ft, 6'9", 6'10", 81.9 inMX4 448330, Revolver X4s 80330, Lo Pro 579101, Trifecta 2.0 92486
Long bed8 ft, 8', 8'2"MX4 448331, Lo Pro 579601

Step 2: Match your model year

The 2023 Super Duty was redesigned, but cover makers list most of these parts for 2017 through 2025 or 2026. The exception is the short-bed MX4 (448330): RealTruck lists it through 2025, but one seller lists it only through 2022. On a 2023 or newer short bed, confirm your year with the seller first.

Step 3: Check F-450 coverage

The F-450 pickup isn't on every listing. Of the parts above, the MX4 448331 (RealTruck), the Lo Pro 579601 and the Lo Pro 579101 (Waldoch) name the F-450. For any other part, confirm before ordering.

Step 4: Hard or soft

Super Duty beds often carry tools and work gear, which makes a hard cover with an automatic latch (MX4) or locking rails (Revolver X4s) worth considering. If you mainly want weather protection, a soft cover costs well under half as much. Our tonneau cover types guide breaks down the trade-offs.

Step 5: Plan around a fifth-wheel or gooseneck hitch

A fifth-wheel or gooseneck hitch sits in the middle of the bed, so you'll fold, roll or remove the cover every time you hook up. A roll-up (Lo Pro, Revolver X4s) or a cover that comes off quickly (Trifecta 2.0) makes that easier.


Installation Notes

All four covers clamp to the bed rails without drilling. BAK estimates under 30 minutes for the MX4 and under an hour for the Revolver X4s. RealTruck estimates about 30 minutes for the Lo Pro, and H&H lists about an hour for the Trifecta 2.0. On a long bed, a second person helps when setting the rails and panels. After the first rain or wash, check the front seal, and recheck clamp tension after a week of driving. See the no-drill install guide.


FAQ

Will a 2017-2022 Super Duty tonneau cover fit a 2023 or newer F-250?

For most of the covers here, the maker lists the same part number from 2017 through 2025 or 2026. Seller listings don't always agree, though: one lists the short-bed BAKFlip MX4 only through 2022. Check the listing for your exact year.

Is the F-250 short bed 6.75 ft, 6'9" or 6'10"?

They're the same bed. Cover makers and retailers round the measurement differently. One listing gives it as 81.9 inches. The long bed is listed as 8 ft or 8'2".

Do F-250 and F-350 use the same tonneau cover?

Yes, when the bed length and year match. Every part in this guide is listed for both the F-250 and F-350.

Can I tow a fifth-wheel or gooseneck with a tonneau cover on?

Not with the cover closed. You need to open, roll back or remove it to reach the hitch. Roll-ups and quick-release covers are the easiest to live with.


Final Verdict

If you wantPick
Best overall, either bedBAKFlip MX4 (448330 short, 448331 long)

Lowest price (short bed)Extang Trifecta 2.0 (92486)

For most Super Duty owners we'd pick the BAKFlip MX4, after checking the year listing on a 2023+ short bed. If you have a long bed and want to spend less, the TruXedo Lo Pro 579601 is the soft cover with the clearest 8 ft fitment. Driving a half-ton instead? See the F-150 guide.
