Abstract
Side rails can include a longitudinally extending rail track having support surfaces and a plurality of longitudinally extending linear grooves. A storage housing can provide storage tracks in alignment with the forward end of the rail tracks. In addition, a roll-up tonneau cover can include a plurality of slats pivotally connected together. Corresponding first and second sides of the slats can be supported above the grooves on a respective one of the support surfaces of the rail tracks. The slats can be movable along the support surfaces between a storage arrangement wherein the slats are supported by the storage tracks to provide access to the cargo box, and a deployed arrangement wherein the slats are supported by the support surfaces of the rail tracks to cover the cargo box.
