Racks and tonneaus for Honda Ridgeline

For the longest time now we've been asked whether we can recommend a rack that will work with a tonneau cover for the Honda Ridgeline. Even though our BakFlip CS system provides folks an unparalleled advantage for most trucks, the Honda Ridgeline was always one that seemed to stump us. So, I was really thrilled recently to learn that a new rack system had been developed by a company called Vantech. It would seem that they offer a very nice array of racks for the Honda Ridgeline.

As great as the Ridgeline is as a truck, it seems to lack in the way of accessories. The good news is that this is America and our challenges seem to breed innovation. Congratulations to Vantech for rising to the challenge and coming out with a new rack system for Honda Ridgeline owners that is sure to put a smile on their faces. Couple the new honda ridgeline rack with their OEM tonneau cover, or better yet one of the incredible new BakFlip tonneau covers for the Ridgeline and you'll have one of the most versatile trucks on the market!

Tonneau covers that work with the Backrack

Last month I was at the Keystone Automotive show in Dallas Texas and had the fortune of meeting Adrian Jayne, President of BackRack. They make a wonderful line of heavy duty headache racks for the commercial industry with an emphasis on quality.

After meeting Adrian, we got to discussing the fact that for a while now, he had actively been trying to find a good quality tonneau cover to be able to seamlessly integrate with his no drill rack systems. Well, after taking a look at their racks and doing a little head scratching of my own, I felt that we were clearly up to the challenge and decided to create both a heavy duty retractable tonneau cover and an aluminum folding tonneau cover to fit with the Backrack.

At the moment we have just sent Adrian a RollBak retractable tonneau cover to test at his Canadian facility. We are awaiting feedback which i will post here accordingly. In the interim, here's a look at the preliminary BakFlip folding tonneau cover that is currently modified to work with the BackRack.
