I got it color matched to the truck, with carpet installed on the other side.

I was told by a co-worker that putting carpet on it would keep down the condensation.

My OTD price was $1,173.43 installed.

Any pcitures from the back with it closed and of the hinges on the inside?

Thanks,

Anybody have any experience with tonneau overstored.com? They give the best price but never dealt with them. I see people recommending autoanything.com but haven't heard of these guys before

So I had to remove my undercover flex to replace the bulkhead seal so I did a few other things to the setup which included removing the rails. This caused the silicone to pop loose that I had added on the plastic insert that slides into the gutter and hooks up to the drain hose. As a result of that failure all the water in the gutter system was draining into the bed, the design is poor and relies on a butt joint and a piece of foam tape to hold it all together. I removed the old silicone, added a better outdoor rated silicone plus some gorilla tape for extra measure, let it sit over night and the leak is now gone. I am just thankful that I didn't pay for this thing, it was defective from the start and the vendor went belly up so visa was able to get me a full refund because the vendor didn't honor their return policy. I've spent well over 10 hours and I'd guess approcaing 20 hours messing with this thing, I'd avoid undercover flex unless they make some design improvements and quality control checks.

Typo perhaps? overstored.com does not exist.

 

I usually check resellerratings.com. By the way, autoanything.com gets great reviews here, but they have a different story at resellerratings http://www.resellerratings.com/store/Auto_Anything

I'd stick with a vendor like autoanything or realtruck, I tried a cheaper vendor when I bought mine and they totally didn't stand behind the product they had sold. In addition I'd try to buy the tonneau locally, it's a lot easier to have an issue resolved if you can goto the local shop who installed it.

Sorry it was Tonneaucoversworld.com. Ordered Retrax Pro with the wide rail option, pop n lock electric lock, and tailgate seal for a little under 1600.00. Edited by ncrubicon

That's a good deal! - Can't say enough about the Retrax Pro and the pop-n-lock electric lock -

I had the retrax on my 07 classic Duramax and loved it. Had to go that way again. Hopefully the upgrade to the pro version over the regular is worth the extra.

The differences between the RetraxOne and RetraxPro are:

1. Obviously, the curtain portion of the cover is Lexan for the One and aluminum for the Pro.

2. The One locks on one side of the cover and the Pro locks on both sides of the cover.

 

Otherwise, they are the same including the rails and canister.

I did know about the aluminum vs the lexan, but not the lock. That sounds like a nice upgrade from the old one I had.

Just got my SnugLig SL installed. I had one on my 2007 that I loved and never had any problems with.

 

They have made some enhancements on the new one for the 2014+ style. It now has a better quick release system to easily remove it while leaving the mounting hardware in place. It now also includes a built in 12v light.

Great fit and finish that improves the overall look of the truck.

    • On my wife's 2020 Blazer (~69000 miles), we started to notice the brakes pulsating at faster speeds. Typically around town you don't notice anything, but highway/interstate driving you will notice it. I decided to pull of the front tires and look at the brakes. I figured with the milage, the pads should be wearing out to their life span, but they actually looked decent. Still with "meat" on them. One pad has a ridge wearing in it, and that same rotor is showing the ridge too. That's not the concerning part...the other rotor appears to have a raised bump on it!  The picture make it look like a pimple! Very odd and strange! NOTE: These are the factory brakes and rotors.   I'm attaching pictures of the front brakes and what they look like ate ~69000 miles.
    • 2024 Chevrolet 2500 HD Custom 6.6 Gas Canadian built Truck  I tried to search for my previous thread on this topic but cant find it so my apoligies  for starting another one    #1   Since we have owned our truck purchased new it has this strange noise after using the remote start function  you press the remote start and you hear it start but right at the end of it starting it almost seems like it wants to start again after the truck is running .   There is no gap in time it is right at the end of the start . Almost sounds like when you have started a car/truck and its running and then you try and start it again and you get that grinding noise ,sort of     #2  You can only hear this if you are standing outside of the truck and near the truck  you cant hear it when you start the truck from inside  the cab . So it may very well be happening when starting the truck that way as in normally    #3   This only happens when it is started after sitting . For how long I don't know but it happens after sitting overnight for sure and it wont do it if you stop the engine after starting and then start it again  I have had it in to the Dealership before concerning this but they did not have the truck  when it was cold to hear it . Now its back in the Dealership left it overnight so they could possibly hear the problem . They said they tried and nothing happened . Well they did not know what they were listening for . I started the truck remotely and BINGO it makes the noise . Oh that sounds weird they say . We need to look into it ! I have left for this week at the Dealership    Does your 2024 2500 HD gas do this ?  Any of you fellas care to take the time and trouble to film this operation from a cold start  so I can hear what your sound like  Really  would like to know if this is anormal sound  Thank You Fellas !!
    • 2026 Z71.  The other day I was backing a trailer into the barn.  The alarm was going off just because the trailer was in the field of the warning sensors when you get too close to something.  For some reason now the warning alarm doesn't work anymore.  It used to go off when I was just normally backing my truck into garage.  I still have the guidelines in the back up camera.  Is there a button or something to push to turn the sound/Alarm on and off?  I have the touch screen in this truck.  There isn't a "P" on the dash except for the parking brake.  I can't find anything in the touch screen under settings or vehicle.  Thank you in advance.  
    • Well one of our most reliable vehicles was sold yesterday. The first and only I gave for free to a grandkid. If they got skin in the game they take care of it. My wife bought new. Five years later my daughter got it to use. We got it back and gave it to our grandson after graduation. He did zero maintenance just oil changes. When the AC quit he drove his mother’s car rather than get it fixed. Instead he just bought a beater and sold the Elantra. 
    • I usually do as well or better than the sticker for mileage. Usually better going west than east. North then South. Wind makes a difference. I’m not usually a conspiracy theorist. But it did dawn on me I’m going by the vehicle calculation. Now that would be interesting.
