Diamondback is the only way to go for me. Full use of your bed and you can stack quads, side by side, wood or whatever on top. Plus it’s weathet proof and nearly impossible to get into.

It's beautiful and yep pretty much bulletproof! Out of curiosity how much does the set up weigh?

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

Looking at getting a backflip g2 for my 18' Silverado.
Any issues with these? Do they leak water at all into bed?

Some input would be great before I go and buy one. Thanks.6ce434b52cab14fb9da60752089b617c.jpg

There are numerous posts here telling of leaky Bak-flip tonneau covers. To be fair they make quite a few different models so this may not pertain to all of them but for the price they charge there shouldn't be any leaks.  See what you can find doing a "Search" in this thread.

 

PS:  Nice looking 2018!

After much debate I jumped in and did it. Bestop For the win! The instructions give you a good idea of what to do, but you have to be willing to test fit and move it to get it just right. No noticeable noise and took it for a 700 mile test to make sure I like it. I’ll throw out the verdict in a month or so.68b4d39e8a96ec9cf2d8ad3c0298588e.jpg

Been debating on getting one of these.  How dry does the bed stay?

The middle seam on top leaks a little but I’m taking 1/4 of a cup in overnight rain. I love the thing.

Does anyone know if there is a market for used covers? I have a Undercover Flex Ultra that I purchased in August. It’s a great cover, but I’m going the camper shell route for my dogs. It’s in perfect condition. Would $700 be a reasonable price? Since new ones cost around $800 if you get on sale.

There's defiently a market for used covers. Me personally I wouldn't pay $700 for a used cover if I can get a new one for $800 but then again that's just me, I'm sure there's people who would buy it.

What bed size is you undercover ultra flex for, Dodgersfan?  That is one of the 3 models I am considering.  The other two are the Bakflip F1 and MX4.

It’s for crew cab, 5’8 short bed. I actually had a mx4 as well, but returned it for this one.

I recently got the Fold-A-Cover G4 Elite along with the Personal Caddy storage unit.  I chose this setup because I could go from my old tool box to this unit, move all my toolbox stuff to the Personal Caddy, and then access it through the front access without having to flip the whole thing up to get to my tools.  I can still fold the rear of the bed up to expose as much of the bed as I had available back when the toolbox was there, but now it stays dry and secure the rest of the time.  Happy customer so far!

      Bent valve in 2025 GMC Canyon Denali - Requires engine swap at 14K miles

      By newdude · Posted

      No ETA is available for that engine at the moment in the GM system.   I would start at the dealer.  Try and talk to the parts manager or service manager and see if they can start a CX Connect case and get an ETA from GM on when engines may be available.  If they just check Parts Workbench and say "no eta", they aren't trying hard enough.  They need to do a CX Connect and chat with DPAC to find the ETA.

      MPG at 600 miles

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I would have to read back to get a better picture in my mind of some of the other comments and what they were using for a driving scenario they based the fuel mileage off of. That is why the fuel mileage conversation is extremely difficult to make fair comparisons from. If I was to be living in town and only driving around town, light to light and some longer stretches that doesn't have a light every block, and the usual stop at a grocery store and the bank and so on and so forth, my fuel mileage even during the summer time would be so bad with my truck I don't even want to know how bad it would be !. Then add in winter time and idling to warm it up to clear the windows and driving through snowy streets etc, large heavy trucks with gas engines have NEVER been worth crap for fuel mileage and why some little pot licker of a car with wheelbarrow tires and a 1300 cc four cylinder non turbo engine was the ticket to using a mere fraction of the fuel over a full size pickup.    By the way my truck has the 34" tires as its a HC but not the BFG KO3 tires ( that was an option for my truck but the sales guy couldn't figure out what the tires actually were so that never got on the order until it was too late to change the truck order ). So what fuel mileage your getting actually sounds good for "town driving" and with my truck when I go to town the fuel mileage keeps increasing as I get closer to town because it takes quite a while to get the driveline oils warmed up ( and why it always shows better fuel mileage on the return trip from town because its already warmed up ) but once I am in town that fuel mileage average just keeps dropping the more I mess around town and then has to recover back to something reasonable again by the time I get home for an over all average.    I'd be curious what your sticker says for the factory weight of your truck, mine is close around that 7700 lb due to the options it has. But anyway the long and short is, vehicle weight, higher rolling resistance heavy tires and a hefty driveline and a relatively large gas engine make for crap fuel mileage in stop and go scenarios, all one can do is drive it easy off the line at each stop and as my dad had said over the years, drive like a raw egg is under your foot and that's the best one can do. Years back with a carbed engine and if the carb was getting a bit out of tune etc as would the ignition system, the fuel mileage on pickups with larger engines was just awful compared to what your getting. We pay the fuel price penalty for driving HD trucks over some little vehicle, that is the reality.

      We had two Toyota’s with that engine in the mid 80s. We had 50 gallon fuel tanks, a toolbox full of tools, an air compressor and assorted parts for our equipment. We beat those up and down pipeline ROWs until we started buying diesel trucks. Then they became parts runners and first vehicles for our teenagers first cars. Our shop Forman wrecked them both two years apart when we hired him out of high school as an apprentice. Good thing he’s an excellent mechanic. It took awhile before he could be called a good driver.
