  • Patent number: 6010176
    Abstract: A reversible soft cover for trucks or other vehicles. The cover contains a central upper portion, and front, rear, and side portions extending from the central portion to completely enclose a bed or cargo area. Each of the front, rear, and side portions may be individually opened, and the rear section may be rolled-up from either inside or outside the vehicle using a lanyard. Flap covers prevent the hemmed side edges of the front, rear, and side portions from exposure, regardless of which surface is exposed, and provide a substantially weatherproof seal between panels.
