I installed the Gator SFX Tri Fold on Sunday and it's a nice cover for the money. At speed it doesn't make any noise and sits nice and snug. After it goes thru a long Texas summer that may change, only time will tell. The tonneau I'm going to get for a permanent installation is over 1200 bucks.
I didn't want to break the bank now with everything else I'm doing to my truck so the expensive cover will wait. It came with everything you need to install it and took me about 15 minutes

I put this on my truck and it kept everything dry. The only issue is at 80mph it does wave like a flag a little so annoying in the rearview mirror. Other than that easy to install and light weight. I think it helped my gas mileage by about 1 mpg. I am happy with it only being $300.00 delivered.

You get what you pay for! If you don't open often, then probably work. Be aware of the noise when at speed - this baby is going to flop a lot.
That's what I have been waiting to hear from someone. I'm either going to get a roll up cover with support bars every 3 inches or a hard 3-section cover.

I just didn't want a soft topper...they're affordable until that first tear and then you're either patching or replacing. It's the old adage: you get what you pay for. I expect Steve Trucklet to be our last new vehicle and it needs to last, as we won't have the funds to re-buy.
