Zane & Josh, The Merva Brothers Founders, GM-Trucks.com November 23rd, 2018 Earlier this year we installed the Agri-Cover LORADO soft roll-up cover on GM-Trucks.com's 2011 GMC Sierra. Bed covers are one of the best utility to value products you can get for a pickup and we were impressed how useful Agri-Cover's premium soft cover solution was on our Sierra. When we took delivery of our brand new 2019 Silverado a few weeks ago, Agri-Cover couldn't wait to let us know they had a premium hard tri-fold cover, the LOMAX, that would be on sale soon and would fit our brand new bed size. Before we knew it, a brand new LOMAX arrived at our garage. After the LORADO earned its keep over the Summer of 2018, we're ready to subject the LOMAX to the Winter of 2019. We installed the Agri-Cover LOMAX Hard Tri-Fold Bed Cover a few days ago and here's how it went and what we think. What is it? Access Cover LOMAX Hard Tri-Fold Cover Model Number: B1020079 for 2019+ Chevrolet Silverado / GMC Sierra 1500 w/ 5’ 8” bed MSRP: $1,039 (as of November 2018) Manufacturer Website: https://www.agricover.com/lomax/ Main Features Low profile - sits ½ inch above bed rails Made of extruded lightweight aluminum Weather tight, water shedding design Designed to remove and reinstall easily Competitive Products WeatherTech AlloyCover B Bak BAKFLIP MX4 Extang Solid Fold 2.0 What We Like Extremely lightweight One of the thinnest hard tri-fold covers available Doesn’t interfere with power up/down tailgate Easily removed to haul larger items What We Don’t Like Fully folded, it still takes up ⅓ of the bed (fortunately, it can be removed if needed) The panels had a few sharp edges out of the box Installation diagrams didn’t match our 2019’s bed design Installation The LOMAX arrived via FedEx just a few days after being shipped. Even though it was a larger and moderately heavy shipment it showed up still securely packaged with no dents or damage to the outside box. Inside, all the components were in perfect shape. There were no missing parts and, surprisingly, very few parts. The LOMAX box contains the tri-fold panel assembly, two side mounting rails and eight under-bed clamps to keep everything secure. With two sets of hands we were able to quickly and easily clamp the side rails in place. Each rail required four clamps, which we reversed for a wider grip as detailed in the installation manual. Super simple and easy to do with limited tools. Our manual’s diagrams and instructions relating to the placement of the clamps were not perfect however. The 2019’s under-bed rail has various thicknesses. You want to make all attempts to clamp only on areas where the sheet-metal is two layers thick. The manual instructs you to clamp in the far corners where there is only one layer of steel at the rail top. We decided to move the outermost clamps slightly inward to make sure they were attached in an area of thicker sheet metal. Aligning and tightening the rail clamps was the most difficult part of the LOMAX install and at most took us 30 minutes. By "most difficult", we actually mean really darn easy. You only need a socket wrench. Once the side rails are securely clamped in place and adjusted to look even, we only had to lift the hard Tri-Fold assembly up onto the front rail. A little adjustment and the LOMAX snaps into place with two spring loaded locks. Two security straps attach at the first fold to prevent accidental flyaway. After opening up the hard cover and snapping the rear panel into place, we were done. No more than 35 minutes later with a lot of stopping for photography. The LOMAX is no doubt the easiest to install bed cover we’ve ever put on a truck. Initial Impressions Despite being an up-level LTZ trim, our 2019 Silverado looked unfinished and bare with a uncovered and painted factory bed. The LOMAX Hard Tri-Fold cover ended up being the finishing piece that really completed the super sleek and ultra modern look of our 2019 Silverado. Being a hard cover, the LOMAX has a thinner design then you could get from a roll up cover. It's also more expensive. That said, the easy installation and single unit cover piece also lends to an easy and quick removal process. Need to haul large items and leave your LOMAX at home? No problem, you can remove it and reinstall later by yourself. There’s also no interference with the power up and down tailgate, which surprised us. Looks good, works great, and doesn't mess up key vehicle features? Awesome! Day to day use of the LOMAX seems as if it will be similar to our LORADO roll up cover. The tri-fold design can be operated by one person and secures at the cab front of the bed, just like the LORADO. Unlike the LORADO, the LOMAX has weather stripping to seal the edges of the cover instead of hook and loop fasteners. We're curious to see how weather tight this actually is and how it compares to the LORADO and the Retrax Pro we've used in the past. Winter is just gearing up here in New Hampshire and we can’t wait to see how the LOMAX Hard Tri-Fold Bed Cover stands up. Snow, ice, and abuse are three things we can promise. We'll leave everything else up to chance. Check back in Spring 2019 for an update on both of our Agri-Cover bed covers.

Hey all, I'm trying to get in touch with fold-a-cover over a warranty issue. I've got a leaking latch that's draining straight into the bed caddy I have in it. I've been trying to get in touch with them for about a month now, tried previous email threads, the online form, calling two different numbers. But both numbers are disconnected and I've gotten no email responses. Does anyone have a good contact number over there or know more about their situation? Thanks in advance!

Hi All, I read through some threads about tonneau covers but there is a very specific criteria for 2019+ Denali especially as they have the multi pro tailgates and the carbon pro bedliners. I see there is a bakflip model and many of the expensive extractables, etc. I am looking specifically a soft tri-fold that does not interfere with the gate and hopefully does not require trimming the bed liner. I would even settle for a roll up. Only other requirement is needs to lock so it can only be released with the tailgate open. Tell me what you got and what you got to work!

Thanks for the add. Greetings All!! Going to start my membership, by asking what I hope is an easy question. On an online site, they have a deal on a power retractable tonneau cover that I really like, (like same price as non-powered), but I also just installed a Weather Guard tool box. My hope/want is that I can put the retractable canister in back of the toolbox, (tailgate side) and then mount my onboard air tank under it, with the compressor in the toolbox. Finally my question is; will the electric cover stop at my tailgate automatically? I understand I have to cut the rails to accept the canister in the different location, but the cover stopping in the correct stop has me guessing what other mods I’ll have to do. please help ASAP, as I do not know how long this deals gonna last. Thank you! Collin 2018 GMC Sierra Denali 3500hd

Title asks it all. I’m looking at taking my NEW truck to Victorville and reclaiming my tonneau cover, whether I buy it from the junk yard or not.

I am recently decided to buy a tonneau cover/truck bed cover for my truck. I have to carry so many things as a traveler and it's necessary to keep them rain free. One of my friend suggested me to have a tonneau cover and switched off after then. I want to hear from you about few top rated tonnaeu cover reviews of this time. I know you guys are going to select one for me. I must share what my friends are going to send me.Thanks in advance....

This would be the second Smittybilt cover i have owned (The first one i sold to someone who liked it on the spot) I wanted to have a Tonneau Cover again, because i travel a lot and need to have my luggage and other important stuff dry from rain, puddles, etc, and i didnt want to hurt my bank account. I decided to go again for the SmittyBilt Smart Cover because of a few reasons: -I live in Mexico, and ordering a big package gets expensive, not even considering import taxes, so i dont want to overspend -I had previously owned a Smart Cover just like this one (PN 2610032) and i knew what i was going to get -I just need my stuff to stay dry, and thus cover does that perfectly -It gives a much nicer apperance to the truck and hides what you have on the bed What I Like: -Water does not go in the bed -Extremely Easy to isntall/remove and fold/unfold and doesnt require any tools. -Its rather inexpensive, $270.00 US$ on eBay, compared to other covers that can be north of a grand $$$ -Its very decent quality (Considering the price) -I like how it looks on the truck -Its very Durable, my dogs walk over it with no problems -Its very light What I dont like (But can live with) -Its difficult to keep clean, even if you wash it, retains a dusty apparence. -It can be cut with a knife by anyone -Dust can get inside the bed And if youre like me and prefer a video over reading, i made this video about it. Hope you like it, support on my YouTube Channel is always appreciated !

Hi, installed the Lund 96893 Genesis Elite Roll-Up Tonneau Cover. November 2016. 2015 Silverado 6'5" bed.

I was looking at the BAKFlip MX4 for my truck the last couple weeks, saw that they were pretty much across the board at $809 today for Black Friday deal. I was on Bakflip dot com site and saw that chat window pop up saying to chat for discounts.. so pop it open and asked if the price they are showing for the MX4 was the best price they offer since most sites were selling it for that price...response was, the chat price was $768.99(free shipping) out the door. So, jumped on that and should be seeing it in about a week or so. Anyone looking for a Tonneau Cover or looking at this one might want to try the chat feature and might get a better deal than advertised, maybe they do this all the time? But it was new to me and think I got a good deal on it. Item I bought: BAK-448121 - BAKFlip MX4 Tonneau Cover - BAK-448121

I have some left over items from my 2014 Sierra that I wanted to sell to make room in my garage. All prices are or best offer and do not include shipping. -Complete 2014 Sierra 4WD double cab front strut and rear shock assemblies. Removed at 4200miles and have been boxed ever since. $500 -Brand new never installed read mud flaps w/red gmc lettering. This is an oem part. $40 -Factory air intake assembly with hoses. $100 -TonnoPro Tri-Fold hard tonneau cover. I purchased this for my 2016 Sierra CC and realized I prefer the BakFlip G2 that I had on my 14 DC. This will fit the 5'8 bed. Part number is HF-159. I purchased this new in May for $529. Will let it go for $450. Again all prices are best offer and if local pick up doesnt occur will ship from 30813. Will upload pictures shortly.

My clips broke. This I can actually blame on my girlfriend since she swore up and down that she clipped the tonneau cover down when it was folded leaving my bed open. Then around 70mph on the highway and the folding sections flew up and slammed back down on to the bed. I'm lucky as hell that it stayed in the bed and didn't fly into anyone's car and cause damage or injury. So anyone selling a 6.5ft tonneau cover cheap in South Florida??? I'm located in South Miami but also work down in Homestead.
