Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought one of these for my Dodge and I say buyer beware. The main reason I chose this particular one was because of their claim, "The individual panels lock so that you can drive with them open or closed." First of all, not all the panels lock and the ones that do only lock closed, not when they are open. The first time I tried driving with the first panel open, the wind caught it and slammed it down on the moulding I was hauling breaking one of them. There is no way you can drive with any panels open except possibly with all of them open. I haven't tried that yet and probably won't. They have gas shocks that hold up the last panel against the rear window but I can't imagine them standing up to the wind. I feel cheated and lied to. I was also told by the manufacturer on the telephone that it would work with my factory bedliner no problem but I ended up having to cut my bedliner so it would fit. The rubber edge seals are chintzy and stuck on with double-sided tape. I don't expect them to last very long. They sent me rough cut pieces of ABS instead of the shims like the video shows. The installation instructions are useless and I had to remove some of the weather seal at the back just to get the tailgate to close. I've had many tonneau covers over the years and this is by far the worst one I've ever had. I'm keeping it because I went to so much trouble to make it fit and it looks pretty good when it's closed. I will be buying something else as soon as this thing starts to NOT look good which I think will not be very long.
UPDATE: September 2010
I've tried just about every type of tonneau cover there is over the years. This piece of junk began to fall apart on me within a few months of purchasing it because it was so poorly made. For awhile, I couldn't afford to replace it so I kept making repairs to it just to keep it useable. The gas shocks came loose and the cover separated from the part that attaches it to the bed near the window. It was a nightmare. Every time I'd use it, there would be something else I'd have to fix or try to fix. It began to look bad so soon after I got it that it spoiled the look of my truck. For the price I paid, it's an outrageous rip off and I know for a fact that there are many better tonneau covers out there.
