A removable pickup truck bed cover for use with pickup trucks having a fifth wheel attachment mounted on the bed which comprises a tapered wheel valley located within a ramp and a recess which houses a fifth wheel when the bed cover is fitted onto the truck bed. The wheel valley and ramp have an open end located adjacent the opening at the rear of the bed. The wheel valley extends forward and terminates at the recess and facilitates engagement of a king pin or the like on a trailer by receiving the king pin or the like at the open end and slidably guiding the mechanism forward, using the sides of the wheel valley as boundaries, to the recess for engagement with the fifth wheel. The ramp is inclined upward from the opening to the recess which further aids with the engagement of the fifth wheel. The bed cover incorporates a number of storage compartments with lids, a lockable rear door for access to the truck bed and a removable sliding tray located under the ramp.
