What are the pros and cons of using a soft truck bed cover?

The pros of a soft truck bed cover start with the price, as they are significantly cheaper than hard truck bed covers, leaving you with more money to spend on other aspects of the truck. Another pro is that the soft covers are lighter and therefore make the truck more fuel efficient as it is not carrying extra weight. On the other hand, the cons of using a soft truck bed cover is that they are available in limited styles, most commonly black, whereas hard covers are much more visually appealing. Finally, the soft covers are not as sturdy as the hard covers, therefore will not be suitable for all cargo, particularly fragile cargo.
