As much as I like the design and the sleek look of these track mounted tonneaus, They weren't going to work out for me. I haul a couple 30.5 inch wide kayaks in the bed and the tracks encroached on the width. So I choose to go old school top rail Extang Solid Fold 2.0. Not as pretty but does the job.

I have the A.R.E. Fusion. Came pre painted to match exterior truck color. Very happy with minimal water leaks.

Hi MCM3M

Do you have a picture of the Fusion on your truck?  

 

I really like the fusion but it looks difficult to remove if needed?

The LoMax and the fusion are my top picks so far.

Cheers

Just got a 2020 AT4 same color. How does the Solidfold work with the multi pro and auto drop tailgate. 

 

I had the Extang on my 2016 Denali I just traded in and it did me well. 

 

I'm stuck, and mostly just want something lockable.

Remove two clamps up front and lift completely off (might need help lifting).

Here are a couple of pics...

The seal on the cover bears down on the top rail of the tailgate. The auto drop feature is hindered by this. It unlocks then you have to give it a little help then it come down on its own.. I'm assuming just about any cover will do that to make a good seal. I've only had it on a couple days maybe the seals will soften up over time.  As far as the Multipro everything seems to be functional, but once again it may need a little tug to get top to open with the tailgate up. Other than that I really like the cover.  I had Extang Trifecta Soft Folds on my 14 and 16 The Solid Fold is a definite upgrade.

Went with the Roll-n-lock A-Series today!! UWS under tonneau utility chest fits great underneath. 
 

I’m a big fan of the retractable roll up style and the RNL fits snugly in a small canister. 
 

I put my 6-month old Bakflip Fibermax for sale in the classified section in case anyone’s interested on 30% off new price!

Awesome bed cover.  I am researching bed covers again since it appears that Steffens Automotive, the maker of fold-a-cover has closed permanently.  I really like this ARE cover! The website doesn’t list this cover for a 2020 GMC 2500 HD though.  Have any of you seen one like this on a 2020 2500 HD?

The GM Cover sucks.  I have the hard folding one i believe it's from Rev.  $1,000 cover, it's not water proof, has big gaps in the corners, you have the add a bunch of weatherstripping, and....mine is actually drilled through the bed rails and not clamped so i have zero adjustment.  If i knew that ahead of time i never would have gotten it.  It's also a PITA if you ever need to uninstall it quickly to get full access to the bed. The dealer installed it like garbage, and it was preventing my tailgate from closing all the way.  I had to take the folding part off, then take a dremel and grind our the clamp slots since I cannot adjust the alignment due to the rails being bolted to the bed rails. 

 

The upside is that it is lockable, and it opens up at the bulkhead as well which is extremely convenient!

Would you buy this again? I just posted without seeing your picture.  Is this the M series or A series? I'm looking to replace my current cover and would like one like yours. Any chance you can send a picture of it rolled up into the canister so we can see it's size in relation to the bed and clearance below to the deck? THANKS!

Sorry I missed this been on vacation  Looks like you already got one congratulations.

    • I'm the original poster of this thread; I'm 85,000 miles now with no transmission issues after they did the fluid change without filter at 45,000.  I plan on a fluid change AND filter in another 5,000 miles and agree with you on staying to witness what happens if possible.  Ideally I would have done the filter at 45,000 too, but my original dealer was incompetent.  I've since moved on and get service done by another more reputable dealer, so I'm hopeful they follow the correct procedure at 90,000.  
    • Sure, but they do have some affordable options like the Trax, Trailblazer, Envista, and Encore. Some of these have a cheaper base price than the Civic, though the fuel economy isn’t as high. The main problem is that people WANT the highest trim with all the goodies and finance for like 7 years. That’s how ppl “afford” the more expensive vehicles. 
    • Holy s**t - not much of a parts thrower you say? You BLASTED that thing with the parts cannon!  You'd have been probably $1,000 ahead if you had just brought it to a competent shop rather than shotgunning a bunch of parts it clearly didn't need.   Just FYI - oil additives are really, REALLY good at ONE thing ... and that's emptying your wallet. They're ALL useless gimmicks.   If that has the L94 or L99, then #7 is an AFM cylinder. I'd suspect a failed lifter in that case.   If you leaned on wiring, sensors, and/or connectors while changing the oil, you'll have to check all that to be sure pins didn't get pulled out, connectors broken, etc.. Old wire loom that was barely adequate when new is certainly brittle by year 19 - make sure wires aren't chaffed and shorting out somewhere where you might have leaned. or supported yourself on it.   If your a mechanic, why didn't you just find out what you were missing and troubleshoot from there??  TIMED spark, fuel PSI / injector pulse, air, compression.  Can't make ANY money going the parts cannon route.
    • LOL! Are you joking?? That wax SUCKS! 100% gimmick made to "look" good.    After just TWO winters I had severe surface rusting in patches over 90% of the frame. Only reason it looks great in the pics is because I SATURATED the frame every single fall with used motor oil for 14 of the 16 years I owned it. Otherwise it would've been sent to the crusher 8 years earlier with the speed it was rusting prior!    I sold that POS 3 years ago. Was a gigantic headache the second it rolled off the showroom floor. Brakes pulsated on the TEST DRIVE. Door trim fell off the 1st week! Interior squeaked and rattled, and the drivetrain clunked after 2k miles. 4x4 switch failed shortly after. Front end - ball joints, struts, hub bearings - all failed between 38k-50k. Engine started burning oil at 50k. Rear and and transmission failed before 100k. Nothing but problems, and frustration with the piss-poor engineering designed to make you give up. Well, it worked! Nothing on that truck was easy to remove ... except the wheels. They haven't figured out how to screw that up yet. Give 'em time ...   I won't make that mistake again. EVER.   Such fond memories ... https://postimg.cc/K1qf23tS  https://postimg.cc/gallery/X02z64J  https://postimg.cc/gallery/mHSRXZv  https://postimg.cc/gallery/D4mMRfL
    • Different monitors do their test only under conditions specific to that monitor.  you MIGHT find the drive cycle conditions for the monitor that isn't ready on this site: https://lemon-manuals.la/   If it's not there, then it should be on alldata.com for your truck, but it requires a paid subscription.   And you need to know which specific monitor isn't ready.
