Thanks Greg, the simplicity is what attracted me to it. The seams are only about 1/4”. As far as install and removal goes, I think it will be quite easy to remove when needed. 
 

I traded an ‘18 Tacoma for the trail boss and it had a factory Toyota tri-fold. It was heavier and had a bolt to remove. Not super hard but more to do. This one just folds up, secure the keepers, slightly lift and slide toward the rear. Nice and simple. 

That does sound appealing.  Dropped Luke an email so waiting to hear back.  First road trip in the truck in a few weeks so just need something by then.  Appreciate the info.

Truxedo Truxport for me. Soft cover that folds all way up. I like the price and value. Paid $309 through AutoAnything. I use my whole bed. The trifold hard cover doesn’t let you use 1/3 of the bed wit

Nice looking truck. I have the LoMax Access tri fold. Put it on about 6wks ago when I got the truck. Good fit and finish. Tailgate works without interference. Fairly easy install with no drilling requ

Truxedo Pro X15 is my choice. $490 after tax on ebay and sits flush! Sent from my SM-N975U1 using Tapatalk

I have the X15 Pro...great cover. Does leak a little in the corners but nothing major(may be in part to not having the rails perfect during installation). I'd def recommend it...the look of the fabric over the vinyl I think is awesome. No issues cleaning it to this point either.

I'm a big fan of the soft roll-ups. Had always been a huge access fan on all other trucks. This time I decided to go with the GM cover. Very slim and love the way it mounts compared to the old access covers. side bars are a lot more sturdy then the old U clamp style everything stays a lot more flush. only thing i wish was it didn't have the bowtie on it.

Well, went with a Lomax Matte vs Stance as I wasn't comfortable gluing the retainer clips to the roof of the truck to hold it up against the cab.  If the 1/3 position is in the way I'll just lift it off.  Luke was great to work with.  Ordered Wednesday, shipped Thursday, and installed yesterday.  Like it more than expected and does give the truck a nice finished look, and of course hides any gear in the back.  I know it's not impenetrable, but better than just the open bed.  Appreciate your thoughts/guidance on this.

What did you end paying for it?

Fairly easy install with no drilling required. Took a 700 mile round trip last week and had some rain along the way. Bed was completely dry. $883 at autoanything.com.

I got these too. They fit the holes perfectly and even match the texture of the factory plastic bed rails. Purchased through amazon.

Whatever you do do not go with Tonno Pro or order anything from Real Truck or Tonneau cover world. Their customer service is non-existent! My Tonno Pro arrived damaged and I cannot get any one to even answer the phone at either Tonno Pro or Tonneau cover world. They won't answer the phone and after 100 tries, someone does answer, promises you the moon and does't deliver.  No exaggeration! Tonno Pro, Tonneau cover world and real truck are the absolute worst!  Buyer beware!

I went with the Rough Country hard trifold tonneau cover. The top of it is flush with the top of the bed rails, with only the weather stripping being above that. The front 1/3 doesn't fold, but that's okay. If i need that portion of the bed it's very easy to remove the tonneau and sit it on the side or end of the bed.

I have to throw a recommendation for Truck Alterations and Lomax.   Truck Alterations had the best price and Lomax offers great follow service.   I just received my Lomax yesterday.  When I opened the box, I saw that one of the mounting rails had some scratches on it.   I emailed Lomax this morning and within an hour, I received shipping notice for a new mounting rail.   You can't beat that for customer service.  Nice to see a company stand behind their product and take care of their customers.

      Lower trims ( WT, Custom, Silverado ( aka LT )

      By newdude · Posted

      HD at the moment, are kinda their own deal.  How LTZ sells on those vs on 1500, there is a difference.   They are merging most of the mid trims on 1500.  LT, RST and LTZ are replaced by one trim, Silverado.  LT and RST are a BIG portion of sales.    Bad naming choice aside, the new Silverado trim will offer the spread of options that those three trims offered.  So expect to see things like the tech package for example, and memory seats.  And LT Trail Boss will now just be "Trail Boss" (formerly LT Trail Boss) but will offer content spread like the new Silverado trim will.  The press photos showed the Trail Boss (formerly LT Trail Boss) has access to Super Cruise now, which on the current truck was High Country only.       Here is the Trail Boss interior.  Memory seats and Super Cruise are present.  All things the LT Trail Boss it replaces, and the RST it was based on didn't get on the current gen.  You had to go to LTZ or ZR2 for memory seats, and High Country for Super Cruise.

      2021 vs 2026 handling (1500 X31 Sierra)

      By dennismc · Posted

      I installed a Hellwig rear sway bar on my 21 Sierra SLT, it made a huge difference on how the truck handles, no body roll, the trucks much more planted now. Not sure of the suspension differences between the 21 and 26,  if its body roll your having a sway bar will solve it.

      frustrating P0446 code

      By Old Bay · Posted

      So a follow up and my fix. I found in online searches the live data to look at on a scan tool to verify the fuel tank pressure sensor was working.  It showed an spec number towards the lower end of the rang, but in spec.  Then while it was running opened the gas cap and the pressure should change.  It didn't change even a tiny bit.  The data for the purge valve said it was open...never changed. So then I measured the voltages on the plug for the fuel pressure sensor and they matched what it should be.  So local car quest parts had the sensor in stock...it was a bit of a pain to remove and an even bigger one to get it to actually go back in.  It helped to unbolt the driveshaft and bungie cord away from the gas tank to give a bit more room to work. So fuel tank pressure sensor in I cleared the code, and started it up.  I went to the scan tool's live data and... Eureka! The pressure number was different and fluctuated a bit.  So took it on a short drive and pressure number varied saw the purge valve go from closed to open and back to closed.  Drove it to and from work for roughly a week plugged in the scan tool no codes.  I took it in to get tested and passed.  In my state's infinite wisdom (oops meant greed), since I pushed the test with the maximum extensions I have to take it back in by Feb '27 to 'get it back up to date', then my next test won't be until Feb '29.
