Use the November 12 Amazon prices below as the price to beat. - A tonneau cover is made for one truck generation, bed length and sometimes tailgate or rail setup. A discount on the wrong part number isn't a deal. - Our top pick to watch is the **BAKFlip MX4** ($1,199.99 on the F-150 5.5 ft on November 12). We can't predict whether it will be discounted. - The same line costs different amounts for different trucks: the UnderCover Ultra Flex was $1,299.99 for the F-150 5'7" bed and $1,249.99 for the 6'7" bed. - Soft covers run about $220 to $570 and hard covers and retractables about $550 to $2,300, so a promotion is worth the most dollars at the top of the range, where a wrong-fitment return is also costliest. ## Our top picks - 1![BAKFlip MX4 Hard Folding Tonneau Cover](https://truckcoverguide.com/_astro/bakflip-mx4.CoOqV3JL_1Hou5h.webp)Watch for: our best overall hard folder.

Black Friday 2026 is Friday, November 27 (Thanksgiving is November 26), and Cyber Monday is November 30. Retailers often start holiday pricing early, so prices can move before then. We don’t know what the Black Friday prices will be, and we won’t guess. What we do have is the Amazon price we recorded for each cover on November 12, 2026. Treat those as the prices to beat, not as sale prices. We haven’t tested these covers ourselves; this page is research-based, using the same data as our [best tonneau covers of 2026](https://truckcoverguide.com/posts/best-tonneau-covers-2026/). This page contains affiliate links, and we earn a commission if you buy through them. ## When are Black Friday and Cyber Monday 2026? - **Black Friday:** Friday, November 27, 2026. - **Thanksgiving:** Thursday, November 26. - **Cyber Monday:** Monday, November 30. Early deals can start well before those dates, which is why the November 12 snapshot below is useful: it shows what you’d have paid before the holiday weekend. ## Prices to beat: tonneau covers to watch These are Amazon prices we recorded on November 12, 2026, for the 2021 to 2026 Ford F-150 5.5 ft bed unless noted. Your truck’s price will differ. | Cover | Type | Nov 12 price to beat | Why it’s worth watching | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | [BAKFlip MX4](https://truckcoverguide.com/tonneau-covers/bakflip-mx4/) | Hard folding | $1,199.99 | Best overall; 5-year warranty, deepest owner record of any hard folder we track | | [UnderCover Ultra Flex](https://truckcoverguide.com/tonneau-covers/undercover-ultra-flex/) | Hard folding | $1,299.99 | Closest MX4 rival; worth it if cheaper for your truck | | [Gator EFX](https://truckcoverguide.com/tonneau-covers/gator-efx/) | Hard tri-fold | $549.00 | Lockable aluminum cover for the least money | | [Gator soft roll-up](https://truckcoverguide.com/tonneau-covers/gator-etx-roll-up/) | Soft roll-up | $219.99 | Lowest price we track; thousands of owner ratings | | [Tyger T3](https://truckcoverguide.com/tonneau-covers/tyger-t3/) | Soft tri-fold | $249.95 | Budget tri-fold with the largest owner base we track | | [BAK Revolver X4s](https://truckcoverguide.com/tonneau-covers/bak-revolver-x4s/) | Hard roll-up | $1,499.99 | Hard roll-up with no floor canister | | [UnderCover Elite](https://truckcoverguide.com/tonneau-covers/undercover-elite/) | One-piece | $1,359.99 | Keyed one-piece lid; its sibling had the best sealing in Car and Driver’s tests | | [RetraxPRO MX](https://truckcoverguide.com/tonneau-covers/retraxpro-mx/) | Retractable | $1,917.02 | Key lock at any position; the priciest cover we track | | [TruXedo Lo Pro](https://truckcoverguide.com/tonneau-covers/truxedo-lo-pro/) | Soft roll-up | $519.99 | Premium soft cover with a lifetime warranty | Prices in our data change often, and we don’t record price history, so we can’t say whether any of these were already promotional on November 12. ## Fitment first: a deal on the wrong cover isn’t a deal Every cover is a separate part for one truck generation and bed length. Before you chase a discount, find your bed in the [bed size finder](https://truckcoverguide.com/tools/bed-size-finder/) and read [how to measure your truck bed](https://truckcoverguide.com/posts/how-to-measure-truck-bed-for-tonneau-cover/). Then check these details: - **Tailgate and bed variants.** Most Ram listings we checked don’t fit the Multi-Function (split) tailgate, RamBox trucks need RamBox parts, and some Silverado/Sierra parts exclude the CarbonPro bed. - **Rails and tracks.** The BAKFlip MX4 for the 2016 to 2023 Tacoma is listed for beds with the OE track system, and the RetraxPRO MX for the Tundra is listed “with the deck rail system”. - **Model year ranges.** A 2019 to 2023 part is not the same as a 2024 to 2027 part, even when the bed looks identical. The price also depends on the truck. These BAKFlip MX4 prices were recorded on Amazon on November 12, 2026: | Truck and bed | MX4 price | Listing | | --- | --- | --- | | F-150 2021–2027, 5’7” | $1,199.99 | [Check](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08L44X6NZ?tag=truckcoverguide.com-20) | | F-150 2021–2027, 6’7” | $1,271.15 | [Check](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08L447MY5?tag=truckcoverguide.com-20) | | Ram 1500 2019–2027, 5’7” | $1,222.12 | [Check](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07BSCQYB2?tag=truckcoverguide.com-20) | | Silverado/Sierra 1500 2019–2027, 5’10” | $1,199.99 | [Check](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07GNLG19C?tag=truckcoverguide.com-20) | | Tacoma 2024–2027, 5’ | $1,249.99 | [Check](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D4G4D7F9?tag=truckcoverguide.com-20) | | Tundra 2022–2027, 5’7” | $1,233.73 | [Check](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09V1T8WNW?tag=truckcoverguide.com-20) | | Ranger 2024–2025, 5’ | $1,249.99 | [Check](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D47NBCTP?tag=truckcoverguide.com-20) | Truck-specific picks and part numbers are in our guides for the [F-150](https://truckcoverguide.com/posts/best-tonneau-cover-for-f150/), [Ram 1500](https://truckcoverguide.com/posts/best-tonneau-cover-for-ram-1500/), [Silverado](https://truckcoverguide.com/posts/best-tonneau-cover-for-silverado/), [Tacoma](https://truckcoverguide.com/posts/best-tonneau-cover-for-tacoma/), [Tundra](https://truckcoverguide.com/posts/best-tonneau-cover-for-tundra/) and [Ford Ranger](https://truckcoverguide.com/posts/best-tonneau-cover-for-ford-ranger/). ## What typically goes on sale in this category We haven’t tracked previous years’ prices, so we won’t give percentages. In general, big-ticket truck accessories like hard folders, hard roll-ups and retractables are the kind of products that makers and retailers promote around holiday weekends, and bundles with a rack, tailgate lock or bed mat are common. Cheaper soft covers have less room for a large dollar discount. The price tiers in our data show where a promo would matter most: soft covers about $220 to $570, hard folders about $550 to $1,350, hard roll-ups about $1,300 to $1,580 and retractables about $1,550 to $2,300. See [how much a tonneau cover costs](https://truckcoverguide.com/posts/how-much-does-a-tonneau-cover-cost/) for the full breakdown by type and truck. ## Early Black Friday truck bed cover deals Early deals are the reason not to treat November 27 as the only date. Because we don’t track price history, we can’t say which of our November 12 prices were already promotional. What you can do is write down the current price for your exact part number now, and compare it again on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. If the listing drops below that number, you have a real comparison instead of a strikethrough price. ## BAKFlip Black Friday 2026: what to watch BAK has three covers on this site. The [BAKFlip MX4](https://truckcoverguide.com/tonneau-covers/bakflip-mx4/) was $1,199.99 on the F-150 5.5 ft, the [BAKFlip G2](https://truckcoverguide.com/tonneau-covers/bakflip-g2/) $1,131.68 and the [BAK Revolver X4s](https://truckcoverguide.com/tonneau-covers/bak-revolver-x4s/) $1,499.99. The G2 is only worth it when it’s meaningfully below the MX4, since the MX4 has the higher 400 lb rating and 5-year warranty (G2: 300 lb, 3 years); see [Gator EFX vs BAKFlip G2](https://truckcoverguide.com/posts/gator-efx-vs-bakflip-g2/). If you’re searching for a BAKFlip MX4 Black Friday sale, check the part number before the price. The Ram 1500 version doesn’t fit the Multi-Function tailgate, and the Tacoma 2016 to 2023 version is for beds with the OE track system. We track Amazon listings only, so check whether the maker’s own store or a retailer such as etrailer is offering a better bundle. [Check the MX4 price](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08L44X6NZ?tag=truckcoverguide.com-20), or compare it with the [Revolver X4s](https://truckcoverguide.com/posts/bakflip-mx4-vs-revolver-x4s/). ## UnderCover Black Friday 2026: what to watch UnderCover has the [Ultra Flex](https://truckcoverguide.com/tonneau-covers/undercover-ultra-flex/) and the [Elite](https://truckcoverguide.com/tonneau-covers/undercover-elite/). The Ultra Flex was $1,299.99 for the F-150 5’7” bed but $1,249.99 for the 6’7” bed and $1,199.99 for the 2016 to 2023 Tacoma, so an “UnderCover sale” could be bigger or smaller depending on the truck. The Elite was $1,359.99 for the F-150 5’7” and $1,598.99 for the 6’7”. The Ultra Flex only makes sense over the MX4 when it’s the cheaper of the two for your truck. Our [MX4 vs Ultra Flex comparison](https://truckcoverguide.com/posts/bakflip-mx4-vs-undercover-ultra-flex/) covers the differences. For the Elite, the one-piece lid can’t be driven with raised, so confirm that suits how you haul. [Check the Ultra Flex price](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08L44F1TH?tag=truckcoverguide.com-20). ## Gator Black Friday 2026: what to watch Gator is the budget end of this list. The [EFX](https://truckcoverguide.com/tonneau-covers/gator-efx/) was $549 for the F-150 5’7”, Ram 1500 5’7” and 2016 to 2023 Tacoma on November 12, but $684.21 for the Silverado/Sierra 5’10”, so the same cover can start $135 apart. The [soft roll-up](https://truckcoverguide.com/tonneau-covers/gator-etx-roll-up/) was $219.99 for the F-150 and Ram 5’7” beds. At these prices there is less room for a large dollar discount than on a $1,200 cover, though we can’t predict what Gator will do. The thing to check is the warranty: the EFX listings showed 2 years on the F-150 and 3 on the Ram. [Check the EFX price](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08L71GBX7?tag=truckcoverguide.com-20) or [the Gator soft roll-up](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08WCHHYPB?tag=truckcoverguide.com-20), and read our [best budget tonneau covers](https://truckcoverguide.com/posts/best-budget-tonneau-covers/). ## RetraxPRO Black Friday 2026: what to watch Retrax makes the [RetraxPRO MX](https://truckcoverguide.com/tonneau-covers/retraxpro-mx/) ($1,917.02 for the F-150 5’7” and $2,299.99 for the Ram 1500 5’7” on November 12) and the cheaper [RetraxONE MX](https://truckcoverguide.com/tonneau-covers/retraxone-mx/) ($1,549.99 for the F-150). Roll-N-Lock’s [M-Series](https://truckcoverguide.com/tonneau-covers/roll-n-lock-m-series/) starts at $1,799.99 in our data. Retractables are the most expensive type, so a promotion is worth the most dollars here. They also have the most fitment traps, such as the deck-rail version for the Tundra and the Multi-Function tailgate exclusion on the Ram. Compare the two keyed options in [RetraxPRO MX vs Roll-N-Lock M-Series](https://truckcoverguide.com/posts/retraxpro-mx-vs-roll-n-lock-m-series/), and see [the most secure tonneau covers](https://truckcoverguide.com/posts/most-secure-tonneau-covers/). ## TruXedo Black Friday 2026: what to watch TruXedo sells the soft [Lo Pro](https://truckcoverguide.com/tonneau-covers/truxedo-lo-pro/) ($519.99 for the F-150 and Ram 5’7”) and the hard roll-up [Sentry CT](https://truckcoverguide.com/tonneau-covers/truxedo-sentry-ct/) ($1,398.99 for the Ram 5’7” and $1,399.99 for the Silverado/Sierra 5’10”). Sources disagree on the Sentry CT’s warranty (3 years on the Amazon listing, 5 on etrailer), so check the seller’s terms before you buy on price alone. Soft covers from other brands, like the Extang [Trifecta 2.0](https://truckcoverguide.com/tonneau-covers/extang-trifecta-2/) at $469.99 for the Ram, compete at the same price point. ## Cyber Monday tonneau cover deals: worth waiting for? Possibly, if you aren’t in a hurry. Cyber Monday (November 30) falls three days after Black Friday, so waiting means passing on any Black Friday price in exchange for a second round of sales. Three things argue for waiting: you have a target price in mind, the cover is in stock now, and your return window will still cover a December install. Three argue against: the exact part for your truck is scarce, you need the bed covered before winter weather, or a current price already beats our November 12 number. ## How to tell a real tonneau cover deal - **Compare to a real baseline.** Write down today’s price for your exact part number. The strikethrough list price is set by the seller, and many aren’t recent selling prices. - **Confirm the exact fitment.** Match model year, bed length, tailgate type, RamBox or no RamBox and rail system against the listing’s fitment tool. - **Check the variant.** Some lines have a standard and an upgraded version, such as the Extang Trifecta 2.0 Signature ($539.99 for the F-150 5’7”, against $469.99 for the standard Ram 5’7” listing). A cheaper variant isn’t a discount on the one you wanted. - **Check the seller.** Warranty terms can depend on buying from an authorized dealer. Tyger says its 5-year warranty covers the original purchaser buying from an authorized dealer. - **Read the return policy.** Covers are bulky, so check the return window, who pays return shipping, and whether the holiday return policy extends it past December. ## Installation and extras Every cover we track is sold as a no-drill install, so the cost is mostly your time. BAK claims the MX4 installs in under 30 minutes, while Car and Driver’s install of a Revolver X4s took about 1.5 hours and a GatorTrax retractable about 1 hour 20 minutes. See our [install guide](https://truckcoverguide.com/posts/how-to-install-a-tonneau-cover/) before you decide whether to pay for installation. Budget for extras too: a tailgate lock if yours doesn’t have one, a bed mat and cover care products. Bundles that include these can be worth more than a small discount on the cover itself. If you’re buying for winter, our [best tonneau cover for snow](https://truckcoverguide.com/posts/best-tonneau-cover-for-snow/) covers load ratings and drainage. ## Should you buy now or wait? - **You need the cover before a trip, a move or snow:** buy now if the exact fitment is in stock at or below our November 12 price. - **You have no deadline:** set a target price from the table and wait through Cyber Monday. - **You’re buying a budget soft cover:** the potential savings are small in dollars, so don’t wait if you need it. See [soft vs hard covers](https://truckcoverguide.com/posts/soft-vs-hard-tonneau-covers/). - **You’re buying a $1,200 to $2,300 hard cover or retractable:** this is where waiting for promos has the most upside, but a wrong-fitment return is expensive, so confirm the part first. - **You aren’t sure which type you want:** use the [cover matcher](https://truckcoverguide.com/tools/cover-matcher/) before you shop sales. ## Who should skip the sales If you don’t know your bed length, tailgate type or rail setup, skip the hunt until you do. Don’t buy a different cover just because it’s on sale. And ignore “up to X% off” banners that don’t name the part number for your truck. ## Our pick to watch For most owners, the [BAKFlip MX4](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08L44X6NZ?tag=truckcoverguide.com-20) is the cover to watch, with the [Gator EFX](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08L71GBX7?tag=truckcoverguide.com-20) as the value alternative and the [Gator soft roll-up](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08WCHHYPB?tag=truckcoverguide.com-20) on a tight budget. We’ll update this page if prices change; always check today’s price on Amazon for your exact truck. ## Don't guess.

Black Friday is Friday, November 27, 2026, the day after Thanksgiving (November 26). Cyber Monday is Monday, November 30. Retailers often start holiday pricing earlier in November, so a cover can be discounted before the weekend. ### Are tonneau cover Black Friday deals worth it? They can be, if the deal is on the exact cover for your truck and beats the price you'd already pay. We don't know what this year's discounts will be, so use the prices we recorded on November 12 (for example $549 for a Gator EFX on the F-150) as the price to beat. A big percentage off an inflated list price isn't automatically a good price. ### Will the BAKFlip MX4 be on sale for Black Friday 2026? We can't know. On November 12, 2026, the MX4 was $1,199.99 on Amazon for the 2021 to 2027 F-150 5'7" bed, $1,222.12 for the 2019 to 2027 Ram 1500 5'7" bed and $1,199.99 for the 2019 to 2027 Silverado/Sierra 5'10" bed. A real deal would be a price below what the listing for your truck shows now. ### Is BAKFlip or UnderCover cheaper on Black Friday? There is no way to say in advance. On November 12 the BAKFlip MX4 was $1,199.99 and the UnderCover Ultra Flex $1,299.99 for the F-150 5.5 ft, but the Ultra Flex was $1,249.99 for the 6'7" bed. Compare the two for your exact truck on the day, and see our MX4 vs Ultra Flex comparison. ### Should I wait for Cyber Monday to buy a tonneau cover? Only if you have no deadline and are happy to walk away. Waiting costs nothing if the cover is already in stock at a price you accept, but sales rotate and some fitments sell out. If a listing for your exact truck is at or below the November 12 price, buying now is reasonable. ### Is Black Friday a good time to buy a tonneau cover? It can be, because it's one of the weekends retailers promote big-ticket truck accessories, often with maker bundles. We haven't tracked past years' prices, so we can't say how deep discounts go. The safer approach is to pick your cover first, confirm the part number for your truck, and buy only when the price beats the one you already saw. ## Sources - [Amazon: BAKFlip MX4 for 2021–2027 Ford F-150 5'7" bed (448339)](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08L44X6NZ?tag=truckcoverguide.com-20) · checked 2026-11-12 — $1,199.99 with 763 ratings averaging 4.2; automatic latches and a click-in install in under 30 minutes (maker claims). - [Amazon: Gator EFX hard tri-fold for 2021–2026 Ford F-150 5'7" bed (GC24029)](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08L71GBX7?tag=truckcoverguide.com-20) · checked 2026-11-12 — Listed at $549 with aluminum panels, a 300 lb maximum load and a 2-year warranty in the listing details. - [Amazon: Gator soft roll-up for the 2021–2026 F-150 5'7" bed](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08WCHHYPB?tag=truckcoverguide.com-20) · checked 2026-11-12 — $219.99, the lowest price among the representative listings we checked. - [Amazon: RetraxPRO MX for the 2021–2026 F-150 5'7" bed](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08L46PC1S?tag=truckcoverguide.com-20) · checked 2026-11-12 — $1,917.02 for the F-150; the Ram 1500 5'7" version (B07C9YSJP1) was $2,299.99. - [Amazon: UnderCover Elite for the 2021–2025 F-150 5'7" bed](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08L44RPCJ?tag=truckcoverguide.com-20) · checked 2026-11-12 — $1,359.99 for the 5'7" bed; the 6'7" version (B08L44YXNY) was $1,598.99. - [Car and Driver: Best Pickup Truck Tonneau Covers of 2026, Tested](https://www.caranddriver.com/car-accessories/best-tonneau-covers-tested/) · checked 2026-11-12 — Install times of about 1.5 hours (Revolver X4s) and 1 hour 20 minutes (GatorTrax retractable). ## Get new guides by e-mail One short e-mail when Truck Cover Guide publishes a new guide.
