You know, the covers to seal the bed in that sit on top of bed and go up to the roof of the truck and back to the tailgate to make the bed completely encloded. They also have a flip-up window in the back that can be secured?

What's the proper name for them? Truck cover? Bed cap? Bed cover? And what are some popular name brands. I think Leonard is one, but I can't think of any others...

The things that are 2' tall (make your truck look like an SUV) are called toppers.

The things that simply seal the bed from the rain etc are called tonneau covers.

We call them "canopies". I had a canopy on my old truck. Very handy for when I'd go on a parts run and have to bring home six monitors and several boxes assorted parts in the rain.
