On my 2nd Trifecta, actually my first was replacee free of charge (corners curling up). Love it. Solid lid has to be completely free of snow when folding or it will dent the skin.

Scott, how do you like the revolution? I'm interested in getting that one because it doesn't have velcro. Are you still able to keep the cover tight? I used to have a rolling cover that had velcro on it and every time I closed it I had to pull as hard as I could to make sure to keep the cover nice and tight.

+1 for bakflip. It's great product. Very secure, no rain ingress at all. Buying it was a PITA, as I wanted to get the best price possible. I eventually paid $600 delivered on fleabay. I actually found that the two or three vendors on fleabay are actually the same (or related) companies.

For the (not very much) money, it's been great.

Jug,

I really like my Revolution. Instaled in about 10 min, took me longer to get everything out of the box and unpacked than it did to put it on. Fits inside the bedrails but has a V notch in the rail and a rubber flap that seals the outside. Unless you shoot a car wash wand right at the seam it has kept my bed dry. It releases are under the cover so it adds additional security with a locked tailgate. Extang even provides a additional piece of weatherstripping to seal the front of the bed. It snaps into the locking mechinism on both ends and can be snapped in place one handed. The bows are sewn into the cover so stowing is a breeze. Will get a couple fo pics tomorrow and post them up. Best price I found was AutoAnything.com. Bought quite a bit of stuff from them, great prices, excellent customer service and if you call and order instead of ordering direct online you usually get an extra 10% off and free shipping. Saw right after I ordered mine they were throwing in the Extang tailgate seal and a bottle of their recommended tonneau cleaner. I use 303 on all of mine, have 3 and they all look great. Pics to follow!!!
