Had the MX4 on my 16. Didn’t like that it blocked the window when all the way up. Plus it was kinda heavy when folding. Have the Revolver X4 on my 19, works great and much easier to roll up without cl

Backflip but I think it is the F1. What ever is the top one they sell. And it is unfair to their retail stores but the company matches all prices and free shipping. I took 2 weeks looking around and then called them and in a minute they beat the price and shipped it free. If I remember right under 800.

Oh depends on what you y
Use it for there are "better" but at the cost vs. Use for a normal Joe truck not worth it. Like the one or multiple piece carbon fiber race truck covers. MUCH lighter and 100 times better looking not practical for use of bed or on a daily driver.

I’m looking at buying a tonneau cover. I like the bak revolver or BakFlip. Confirm or change my mind and tell me why.

They sent me a new cover when I contacted them when I noticed some of the rubber seals were cut too short on my cover. They sent a new cover no questions asked and it arrived within a few days.

And if you have a Sierra with the upgraded rear view mirror, the camera for the mirror is not obstructed when the cover is folded up against the cab.

Undercover UltraFlex. Has a line-x type coating on it that resists dents. Overall a nice cover. It does block the rear camera when in the upright position but that happened one time, so to me not a big deal.

You may want to look at the Fold-A-Cover G4 elite.

It has the best locking latch system I've seen on a folding cover, and you can't open it with a coat hanger or Slim Jim like the Undercover or Bak.

I wouldn’t worry too much about brands anymore...Truck Hero owns/makes the majority of them including Bak, Retrax, Undercover, TruXedo and some of the GM ones. Need to figure out what style you want and go from there.

If you call them or open a chat they will give you a discount. Unfortunately they charge sales tax and many sellers on eBay don’t, so you have to kinda do the math on that deal. Usually eBay is cheaper.

That was almost two years ago. But shop around and then call them up. They do the standard are you going to buy it now. If yes they give you a price. Or match the price out the door as they say shipping they eat. Or they did with me.
I was on the fence because it was a chunk of change and I was ordering other stuff but when she said that price is couldn't get my wallet out fast enough.

      Turning radius

      By newdude · Posted

      "Increase"?   You want to "increase" your turning radius?     What is your truck?  What kind of cab and bed do you have currently?  Is it stock?  Modified?  Lifted?

      Transmission Woes :-(

      By newdude · Posted

      OP's quote is parts and labor.  Not just parts.     The # you found isn't the right one.  But besides that, the right # is the same price within a couple bucks.  $5802.01.    Now, factor in labor and fluids.  Book time is 17.1 hours for a Colorado 8 speed.  At $200/hr for a dealer average rate, its $3420 just in labor.  We are already at $9222.  Fluid and other necessary items, there's your $400-500 more.      Also.  Your "discounted" transmission.  Which is 99% likely quoted off of GM Parts Direct as that's the MSRP I found on their site.    You failed to note the $597 in shipping charges.  So we are right back almost to MSRP.  $5794.  Oh.  AND, you better have the $4000 for the core charge which you'd have to pay and get refunded, AND you gotta pay to SHIP THE CORE BACK.    So now you'd have paid MORE to buy that one online yourself, even after you get your core refunded.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Length/amount of data capture will be important to consider, sifting through 5 minutes of a data log can be enormous when it is stored in milliseconds. Being able to find the 'event' let alone decipher it.   Presumably the driver would notice something and hit a button to capture the 'window' of data. That window has to be large enough for the operator to recognize the event and react accordingly.    The data has to be able to be retrieved easily.   The data has to be able to be understood. Which is the biggest challenge, dealer techs won't even know what most of it is and would likely not even look at it if an owner brought it to them. Meaning the owner, the least educated/qualified, trying to understand it.    How will the data be presented? Could specific PIDs be selected and a timelapse graph be watched? How will a specific value be noted as abnormal? Additionally, a good data logger would be able to 'learn' normal values for a specific vehicle and flag abnormalities automatically. It could in theory watch parameters degrade over time and suggest maintenance as needed. (If the MAF reading begins tapering off for a given set of other readings - MAP, throttle position, Ambient, etc.. a flag to check air filter.) With the amount of data available, a device (really the vehicle rather than an additional accessory) should be able to do more than issue a DTC. It should be able to run the full diagnostic suite automatically and present a solution rather than a code. (It's not the 90's anymore). The technology is available for the vehicle to not just say "P0087", it should know low fuel pressure, check other PIDs to narrow down the problem itself, and determine if it is a lift pump, high pressure pump, regulator, leak in the fuel line, clogged filter, etc. Even if it can't narrow it down, it should be able to guide the user to the likely problems.   This would be a major problem for dealer service departments, which are the manufacturers customers it is in their collective best interest to NOT have this available to the consumer.   Further, if the owner is going to be the primary consumer of the data, it's got to be at a consumer price point vs. dealer only specialty tool price.   This group is more 'involved' in their vehicle than general public/consumer and will have knowledge, experience, needs and desires that are quite different from the market at large.

      OCI, not when but why?

      I put the prof up. If you read what I posted. You can see that housing, cars and income are in line with the era we were talking about. It’s harder in some places easier in others. Let’s agree to disagree and put this back on track, OK? We both are pretty stubborn and hard headed. But I bring receipts. If you wish I will not respond to you in the future.
