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

Returned my rough country hard tri fold

few things I did not like about it. 

 

Hinges on top and exposed

rubber seal on both sides are exposed all down the side Florida heat don’t know how that would hold up. 

 

Middle panel sat sat higher than back and front panel due to no clamps in the middle 

 

panels are shiny I would prefer mat black panels. 

 

Seems this is is made from another company for rough country and the quality is not there compared to the extang

 

Yes price is great 599 feee shipping and no tax but I was just not happy with it

If it was super shiny, it's probably made with FRP (fiberglass reinforced plastic) panels which is probably not the most desired these days.  Aluminum panels with the LINE-X coating (Truck Gear LXP) is probably the best followed by aluminum panels with a paint powder coat.

I've had the Rough Country hard tri-fold on for about a year with no issues but I would most likely not purchase another one due to the previous comments and it only has 4 clamping points at each corner.  I was worried as I drive nearly 150 miles a day on highway for work and thought it would fly off.  Fortunately it has held tight.

 I just worry about it not holding up to the elements here in Florida during the summer it rains every day with the hinges exposed  i’d have to worry about Corrosion

 

Same thing with the rubber seal down the sides the sun here in Florida is very strong and I’d worry about the rubber not holding up to the heat

I’m wondering if the new armour flex from undercover is worth the price. It’s coated in line-x

The Armor Flex is not totally coated with LINE-X.  The panel closest to the cab is not coated.  Armor Flex has a 5-year warranty.  The Truck Gear (by LINE-X) cover has all of the panels coated with LINE-X and comes with a lifetime warranty.

Do the truck gear covers flip up to the cab, and can you close the tailgate with the cover closed? I can't find the answer on their website.

I just find it odd that there are no YouTube videos any wear on them or many people that own them and they cost 1200, most expensive covers. I planned on getting the undercover armour flex which is also covered in line x.

      The Peckish Synapse

      By Atlas · Posted

      One of the few things I enjoyed about my time in the midwest was taking off on weekend drives. Unlike home, where we are boxed in by mountains and water, those rules don't apply to the inland plains. Roads connect and sprawl everywhere. While Minnesota is flat, it's not completely featureless and there are fast moving rural roads with curves and slight elevation changes. I used to relish heading out in a particular direction with no set destination, no curfew, and weaving through little townships, wherever the roads would take me. Along farms, lakes, or through the deciduous trees... It was beautiful in its own way, and the seasons were so distinct there. Fall drives yielded amazing shows of color and contrast. Summer drives rewarded with the and amber evening glow of the prairie (and lots of juicy bugs).    I do a lot of that here in my home state too. But it's much less mysterious/intriguing. I've traveled most roads in the region, and every road that's fun to drive within a good radius of my house. But every drive, even on the same old roads, is still enjoyable. I know where I can lean hard into the throttle or really throw the car into a curve. There are exercise loops for when I just need to keep certain cars limber, and much longer routes to settle in and enjoy a drive and put some miles on. All the mountains and water make for some really awesome roads for spirited driving. But not all my driving is spirited, for example, that's not really enjoyable in my pickup or this Blazer (that's still here...).   Sometimes a good drive is followed by a ritualistic wash before tucking the car away...

      L8S For 2027

      By C/K Man · Posted

      'GMAuthority' is reporting the 2027 HD's will have the L8S 6.6L gasoline V-8.  There was some talk here about the L8S awhile back.  Not sure what changes it will have now as it seems the 2027 emissions regulations have changed from what was originally proposed.  The big question will be is L8S just a stopgap for the last 2 years of the current T1 HD platform or will it carry forward to the next generation 2029 T1-2 HD's?    I assume the L8S will still be a Gen. V engine.

      New Duramax rumor?

      New engines will still be using DEF. You just won't have the limp modes occurring when you run out of DEF now.

      first oil change - 2026 2500HD gas

      By bruceb58 · Posted

      I am not a NOCO fan for a charger I would leave on a battery 24/7. The reason is, it doesn't really float. It waits until the battery drops to a certain voltage and then charges it back up to 14V. It's better than no charger I guess.

      I would never do anything but lithium.   If the vehicle is stored, just turn the disconnect off. My batteries are completely disconnected form everything in the trailer when my disconnect is off. Trailers don't always come that way as some still keep the CO/LPG monitor on. When mine is off...it is off.   As far as storage temps, LiFePO4 are good down to -20°C. I would store them in a heated place if it goes below that. You can also get heating mats with a thermostat if power is available.   The way the heaters work, if it's below 0°C, if a charge comes in, it is directed entirely to the heater until the battery gets above 0°C and then it allows the charge to go to the battery.   For my Android tablet I use as a display, I can move it inside my house if I was ever in an area that got super cold.
