This thread was really helpful to me in deciding which cover to get....and I wanted to post back once I got my Revolver X2 installed.   It is everything I hoped it would be....just perfect !   No

I had a soft tonneau cover on mine, came with the truck when I got it. I was a pain in the neck to take on and off. I got sick and tired of that and just picked up a really nice tool box instead. Much

Looks nice on a white truck. Love that toolbox too.

That was kind of a must have for me. With grandkids, we have 2 car seats all the time, so under seat storage was not really a good option since we couldn't just flip up the rear seats. I may have to get 1 of those bed steps to reach stuff in the middle, but I'll see how inconvenient it is 1st. They do have a shallower tool caddy, but it was the same price. So why not get the bigger one? They also have some side trays. Those wouldn't require a step. or running board.

BSea - That does look great on your truck, very nice. I ended up ordering the silver ice painted Century Cargo Lid flip-up. This will suit me just fine, as I barely use the bed for anything other than hauling luggage around, etc. I'll post a pic in a few weeks when it's arrived and installed for me. Also decided against doing a spray-in bed liner - that's just overkill, something I really don't need at all. I'll just get the Weather Tech bed mat, and be done with it.

you guys with the Revolver X2 - have you noticed any fading? I'm just wondering if I'll need to wax it, use detail spray, etc. I talked to Morrie and he quoted me $799 no shipping or tax.

Now I have only had mine since April but it still looks like new....I use 303 Protectant on it, since I don't want anything running down the side of the bed when it rains.....but so far it's still perfect.

 

Doesn't take much 303 at all......a little goes a long way.

I've had the bakflip G2 on my truck for about a month now with no issues.

Same with me, I've had my X2 since April and have 303'd it twice so far. Still looks brand new. I frequent dirt roads so I have had to roll the cover up and clean the rails and sides of the cover, as well as tighten down some of the bolts. I also wanted to redo the front bulkhead and Bak shipped me a new one no questions asked. Very happy.

Can one of the fold a cover G4 owners advise on how their covers are holding up after a couple years? I just saw one on a Sierra, and the middle hinge wasn't sitting flush with the wind rails. It was sticking up, maybe bad install. Does that middle hinge (that folds opposite of the others) have an attachment point to the truck? Or is it just held down by the tailgate latches?

Really like the concept of it. Going back and forth between that and the extang encore. Just like the ability to open the tailgate side, without having to open the tailgate. Also that caddy thing seems convenient. I always have loose crap rolling around my bed.

Thank you

Really loved my Diamondback cover on my last truck, saving up for one on my new truck. Can hold like 1,400lbs on the top.

My FAC G4 does that. I don't know why. I just lift up the cover and it then falls into place. I just got a new FAC G4 that the insurance replaced the previous one due to hail damage. It did the same thing. Other than that the cover has been great.

Been trying to decide between Pace Edwards and the Bakflip G2. Think this picture made up my mind. Looks great, how you liking it so far

Been looking around and just saw the bakflip mx4. Looks pretty nice. Supposedly much stronger, I think made of aluminum. Matte black. But biggest thing for me is you can open and close the tailgate with the cover CLOSED. I had an undercover flex on last truck, and it was nice but I haves always having to open it. Plus anytime my wife would use it, I knew she wouldn't pay attention and close the tailgate on the cover, which she did numerous times.

Anyone have an mx4? Install looks fairly simple.

I see you have the extra tie downs. I bought them with my cover but haven't installed them yet. Dis you use them much on your old truck?

Absolutely loving it. It has a nice sleek look to it and at a great price. Install took me about 30 minutes or so. I've received lots of compliments on it.

New here as well but wanted to chime in on the Tonno Pro tri-fold cover.

 

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EUZZK74/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

 

I ordered one last week and took my first trip with it on over the weekend. Drove from Arlington to Austin, Tx.

 

It is a little noisy on the highway once you get up to 75+. The tri-fold is very convenient and goes off and on quickly. Seal seems good. Took it through the car wash and bed was pretty dry afterwards.

 

I do not plan on using this very often and pretty much only for trips with cab fully occupied and luggage goes in the bed or tailgating and in need of the security when in the game. The trifold and snap buckles make on/off easy and storage in the garage when not in use is perfect for what I needed.

 

Easily worthy the price but if it was going to be on 100% of the time, I would need to focus on the noise and make it stop.

      2018 Silverado Console USB Port Not Working

      By Tbhats2130 · Posted

      My centre console USB ports haven’t been working and the one in the glovebox is starting to act up. When I plug my phone into the cord the radio will go black and stop playing, and the CarPlay is inconsistent.   I checked the fuses and they were fine. I changed the USB port out and still nothing. Hoping for some advice on what I should be looking at.

      The truck is a 1995 Chevrolet S10 Blazer, 4.3 VIN "W" engine. :cracks knuckles:   On a whim - because I needed a headache - this truck was for sale so I stopped to take a look. Doesn't run. Well, it does, but barely. Long crank, choppy idle, bad misfire(s), it REEKS of fuel. I can DO this..I'm thinking. Diamond in the rough. One owner until last year. A young guy is selling it, he bought it 6 months ago. It stranded him more than once, he's got a newborn. It was in the shop 10 days ago and he "thinks" they said it needs a new fuel injection system. He can't put any more money into it, needs it gone. I was thinking of upgrading my Macbook, which is a total want, not a need. For less than the price of a new laptop I can have fun for months tinkering on this truck and enjoying it. I'm taking this truck home. The guy was beyond thrilled, his wife was there, she thanked me profusely, I could tell they were hurting. They seemed like good people in a bind.   Some parts, a wash, maybe a set of tires, and I can have a few months of fun and then turn it for beer money (or the next project).   Sure enough, there's a work order from a shop last week in the INCHES of paperwork on this truck dating back to when the first owner bought it. They put a new distributor in it, fuel injection work describes basically opening the plenum and putting it back together. He said he couldn't afford any more work so he had them button it up and that's when he put it up for sale.   I'm not well versed in 4.3. I did discover 1995 uses the 1992-1995 SCPI "Spider" injector which is riddled with issues from splitting lines, clogged or cracked poppet valves and plastic spider legs that crumble over time. Cool. I'll just order me a ne---. Oh, the auto parts store doesn't have it? Rock Auto doesn't have it. eBay? $$$$$$ for used. These are UNAVAILABLE period end of story unless you know "a guy" who's still got one in a box somewhere.   Can't upgrade to the '96-'04 injector, it's a different plenum, wiring/pinout and sensor config.   There are a few kinda "know a guy" -guy rebuild services for these injectors out there for about $350. Okay, Okay... I'd like to know if anyone has used them? Anyone got a lead on these crappy 92-95 spiders?   I also don't want to send MY spider to Narnia and back without knowing if that's truly the problem. I guess I'll need to pull apart the plenum and do some digging.   I was also thrown for a loop. This 1995 model year truck has an OBD-II connector. The interface is decidedly not OBD-II. I can read and reset trouble codes and view live data, but there's not a lot of data. Like misfire count and on what cylinder, that's not there. It's OBD-1.5.   Nothing is ever easy. Now it makes sense why this guy wanted to disappear this thing for cheap. I'm guessing the shop told him the injector is toast, the part is unobtainable and they're not going to sort sending the thing to a rando offering rebuild service on craigslist, and the kid likely can't be without a working car for 3 weeks even if they'd facilitate that.   Experience with these early SCPI's? Stories? Things to check? Sympathy? (..Nah...)   This can sit until I sort it. But I haven't had a problem with a vehicle I couldn't easily solve in a long time.

      I have four that read by the dash 8 to 10% better than miles/pump calculations and I have one that is spot on.
