What are you running and how do you like it?

Posted

I have a Diamondback SE and it does a good job but I have stuff attached to it that makes bed access limited other than from tailgate. I have a Bedrug XLT in the bed so I can save my knees while crawling into the bed if I fill it right up. This is not ideal but is a rare occurrence so I put up with it.

 

If I take the tent off and the side mounted bike racks off, I can open the front and back sections even with the lower racks on.

 

If I want to run a 5th Wheel, I would need to take the entire setup off.

I've been shopping between Real Truck and Peragon covers. I don't even have my truck yet. it's on a train somewhere and should arrive in the next week. I think I'm going to order the Peragon cover. I think it will work for me.

GM Accessory Tro-fold by REV.  Ordered it with the truck so it would be covered by the Bumper to Bumper warranty and also because I have had it on my last 2 trucks (2017 & 2021) and 100% satisfied with looks and functionality.  It has survived harsh Michigan winters and always looks new.  With the GM ones,  if dealer installs at time of sale, covered by B-B warranty, if you install, not covered by GM but the cover maker (REV) warranty applies.

Slight correction to your warranty bit. 

 

It is a non GM warranty from day one.  No bumper to bumper warranty coverage.  All the tonneaus are that are IBP (Integrated Business Partner) which they now call "Associated Accessories" are provided and warrantied by a 3rd party and sold via GM, but not manufactured by GM or warrantied by GM. 

 

Same goes for the hood deflectors, window visors, any accessory that has "Associated Accessories" at the end of the description.

 

We have a sheet with all of the warranty contact phone #s for all sorts of the products that are "Associated Accessories".  Kicker, Advantage (formerly REV), Thule, BackRack, Adams, LoadTamer, Borla, etc.  

 

Now, something like the GM splash guards or a GM tonneau (look up 87816007 for example), those are covered under B2B when installed at the time of purchase, or are 12 month warranty for over the counter sales.

I had the Diamond Back on my last truck, and it did not work for me.

I can't believe a dealer person would BS me.  I never got anything about the cover warranty with the purchase.  I just looked in the truck and nothing there, unless they will handle it for the customer.

Warranty booklets are in the tonneau packaging.  Tech who installed it probably tossed them.  

 

Yes, dealer would handle the warranty work for it.  They call the # if there is an issue, and parts are sent out, etc.  I've had to before, the tonneau suppliers are great.

Truxedo ProX15. I put it on in 2022 it’s just as good now as day one. Very low pro and made of nice material. A couple drops can get in up front and I mean only a couple during a big downpour but I don’t care about a couple drips. Never had things get wet inside.

Fill4.thumb.jpeg.ea33d941151498e18466681508a976fd.jpegI installed the Diamondback HD and love it. The cover is very heavy and the struts help with lifting so not the most adaptable. However, if you want durability get the HD.

Here is a picture of accessing my bed mounted winch and another showing a cubic yard in the bed without removing the cover.

Had to switch from IPad to Dell PC to get the image to post correctly. So much for driveway inversion

    • I'm not sure if this should be a new topic, let me know if it's out of place. This my first post. Thanks 85077522 - AC Delco GM Genuine Parts Brake Master Cylinders. Anyone else had to replace this brake master cylinder yet. I didn't do any brake work, it looks like new parts and I've had the truck for about 4k miles, 119k total miles.  When it started to throw codes I did the calibrations with a bidirectional scanner and got the codes to clear but they came back so I did the routine; base bleed, automated bleed and final base bleed. All that with Bosch ES16-32N fluid (please look it up). That seemed to fix it but 100ish miles later it failed again so I ran the same process but with a pressure bleeder this time and got the same results, fixed for 100ish miles. The original fluid looked bad and I thought I got most of it out, it could've been the wrong fluid. The codes; P25A2, C05B0-00, C2A1B. I can get them to clear but not for long. The C05B0 indicates a leak in the front circuit (which is bone dry) so I'm thinking of doing the bleed process on that front again today and I don't know if that's taboo to just do the front but at this point it seems like it's worth the try anyway. The new master cylinder/module unit is supposed to get here today. But now I'm pretty much convinced this install is over my head. I've called several shops and some mobile guys that I know but this thing is like radio active material, scary wise. I did get 2 local shops say they should be able to do it, one says he has the SPS2 programing capability. And with the battery disconnected is there supposed to be pedal resistance, mine is to the floor, then if I pump it I can get some resistance. I had a panic stop prior to this issue which may have contributed from what I read. And on the first attempt to bleed and hydraulic test the scanner listed things to look for and one was any gaps between the pad and rotors which I did notice on the RF corner and I removed the outer pad (where the gap was) cleaned it and the hardware and didn't see a gap after that but will re-check it. I read that if pushing the caliper pistons back then you're supposed to open the bleeder so as to not push fluid backwards into the abs module or it will damage it. If that's true then that's also a possibility from the previous owner having the brakes changed before I got it. I'm using an XTool ip500 scanner. Any suggestions, questions and comments welcome. 
    • Next Friday will be my 6 week point from my right knee replacement.  The surgeon says it will be fine if I choose to drive after this checkup.  I know I could drive now but best to do as my surgeon (and my wife) tell me.  Richard compared being 62 to 72.  I remember when I was in my early 60's I was experiencing slow but regular decline in my mobility.  Thanks to good medical support,  i continued to fight the speed and spread of this decline. During my 60's I worked on non-surgical methods and just when I turned 70, my orthopedic surgeon recommended joint replacements.  In a little over a year, I had one shoulder and both knees replaced.  This hasn't been a terribly fun experience, but worth the discomfort as my future mobility health trajectory has reversed.  It is a treat to now be watching my mobility. balance and confidence steadily improve!
