I put the Truxedo X15 on my 2019 AT4.  I LOVE the look of it.  VERY low profile and cloth/convertible top looking instead of the vinyl. Installed in less than an hour, easy to use and I’ve had it in heavy rain and snow and it’s still dry.  

X-actly what you said...this TC looks triple A awesome! Well, except that it me far more than an hour...more like 2? Being a TC virgin prior to this, I took my time, thought things through, etc. LOVE THIS THING.

Ended up going with the RetraxONE MX and love it. Not water proof but it''s pretty good with keeping out water even when going through car washes. Super low profile and looks like its pretty hard to break into. Got it for 1150 shipped so I couldn't pass it up

Nice man! I don’t need it for the ATV aspect but more so for securing stuff inside the bed, guns etc

Are there any covers that offer full access to the bed, other than the soft snap on covers?  I need full access to the bed on occasion, hauling stacks of 4’ x 8’ sheets.  Thanks for any help!

I just put on the TruXedo Sentry CT and it rolls up and if you want to take it out all you do is roll it up and reach under and slide the two latches and lift the roll up and take it out. The rails stay in place.

I have had several soft tonneaus over the years and none were water proof, they all leaked or seeped through.  Tekstyle were the best that i had used, but they are not around anymore.  Now, I run Diamond Back covers on my truck,  easy to remove if needed, can put cargo on top of it, looks awsome, and is water tight.  It allows me to keep gear like clothes, food, tools, etc under the cover safe out of harms way, and put larger items on top of cover like bikes, or kayak, lumber, whatever.  Absolute best cover i've ever owned.

I'm looking at this cover, I like it but wondering about cleaning it, does it hold dust/dirt, or is it really like a convertible top, which sheds dirt and dust really well?  I also saw someone else who treated it with some kind of water repellent, is that necessary?  Lastly, do I need to order the extra tailgate seal?

It truly is like a convertible top. Very easy to keep clean.  I haven’t treated it with anything and i don’t think it needs it. Bed is dry..  I also didn’t order any extra seals. I would highly recommend.  I love it... I really don’t think you’d be disappointed.

    • same here , i have a 2020 first gen and the cost to repair these engines far excedes replacement
    • But Grumpy I did show several subdivisions that had homes starting in the 170K range. If you bought a Townhouse or Condo you could go cheaper. Same with a car 3000 dollars in the 70s translates to around 20K today. There are several models at that price. You actually get more for the money. In the 70s I drove a 3000$ car bought a 28K home and made 4.50 per hour. Thank goodness for overtime. Today I could buy a 170K house drive a 20K car and make 25 dollars an hour operating the same machine today. The difference the house, car, machine would be better and have AC. And I wouldn’t be taxed on overtime. And statistically your wife works too. Easing the burden. I thought we agreed to disagree. I brought receipts earlier, showing examples. I think you’re more stubborn than me. I was done with this debate. 
    • I’m definitely interested to hear the end result here. 
    • My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.
    • Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken.
