From Arizona sun to Colorado hail — every DaShield cover is pressure-tested before it ships.
Why this truck needs the right cover
The Ford Explorer Sport Trac car cover from DaShield is sized to the Sport Trac's actual body dimensions — not the standard Explorer SUV, not the F-150 SuperCrew, and not the wrong generation of Sport Trac.
The Sport Trac presents a UV exposure problem that standard trucks do not share. The open cargo bed floor faces skyward at the same angle as any horizontal surface in direct sun, while the cab roof adds a second high-exposure zone above it. Unprotected Sport Trac beds in Arizona, California, and Texas show clear coat chalking on the bed floor and bed sides well before the cab paint degrades — because the bed receives full, unbroken UV from above with no body geometry to interrupt the angle.
A DaShield cover sized to the Sport Trac's exact year-specific dimensions brings woven UV protection across both surfaces simultaneously. The 1st-gen Sport Trac (2001–2005) measures 202.3 inches overall and 72.7 inches wide. The 2nd-gen (2007–2010) measures 208.9 inches overall and 74.9 inches wide. Each generation receives a cover built to its own footprint.
Designed in Buena Park, California, every DaShield outdoor cover uses woven fabric construction — not the non-woven polypropylene found in commodity competitors — with a breathable laminate that allows moisture vapor to escape outward while blocking liquid rain from contacting the paint.

Why the Ultimum for Truck Hail Protection
Three reasons the Ultimum is the DaShield specification for trucks that park outside during storm season.
1. Woven outer layer for horizontal surface coverage. The bed is the most exposed flat panel on a full-size or heavy-duty truck during a hail event. A multi-layer woven laminate distributes impact force across the weave matrix laterally. Non-woven alternatives transmit force more directly to the metal. A generic spun-bond polyester cover slows a stone. A woven laminate distributes the load. The difference shows in dent count after a moderate event — and in the PDR bill that follows.
2. Guarantee Fit by cab and bed configuration. Universal truck covers drape over the cab and bunch at the tailgate seam. The Ultimum is dimensioned for your truck's specific cab type — Regular Cab, SuperCab, Crew Cab — and bed length. Proper fit keeps the cover seated during wind-driven storm conditions. A cover that lifts and flaps in wind provides reduced impact protection and creates paint contact risk from the cover itself during the event.
3. Lifetime warranty. The Ultimum Lite carries a 5-Year warranty. The Vanguard UHD carries a 5-Year warranty. The Ultimum carries a Lifetime warranty — the manufacturer's structural commitment that this fabric construction is designed for year-round outdoor exposure with no end date. Trucks parked outside through storm season, UV season, and winter simultaneously need the construction that matches that exposure. The Ultimum at $229.99 for a full-size truck is the DaShield specification for that use case. The UHD is the right answer for moderate outdoor exposure with lower hail frequency.
