ABSTRACT:
A new and improved pickup truck bed cover includes a plurality of substantially U-shaped frame members integrally supporting a cover member. The frame members each have first and second terminal ends with a roller and spring loaded lock mechanism at each terminal end. The rollers rollably engage a pair of channels each attached to a side wall of a pickup truck allowing the device to be collapsed towards the truck passenger cab or extended therefrom. The spring loaded lock mechanism allows the rollers to be selectively anchored within the channels preventing the frame members from rolling when the cover is in a fully extended position. The cover member has a rear panel with a window, a brake light, and an access zipper thereon. The cover member may then be stored within a sleeve and flap combination attached to the pickup truck passenger cab.
