    If I had a sack of money I would have one of those on my truck.

    I see a lot of people asking about the pace edwards covers, but haven't seen anyone say how they like it, or if they have it?

    I'm looking at the jack rabbit- and was wondering if anyone had any experience...good or bad?

    Have the same cover on my 2013. It's held up really well, and that extension bar they throw in comes in handy.

    Its a black stick on strip of insulation. You put it on the rails before install. Holds up great. For $350 bucks or so, there isnt a better cover out there.

    BeFun, I like the looks of those Step Rails. How far below the actual truck frame do they hang?

    Anybody have part # for the factory Tonneau cover? I need to search where i can order for good price also i seems easy to install...anyone with experience?

    Honestly, dont know if i will really like Tonneau cover, looks nice, very minor mpg improvements... Jusy feels like it will get in the way of using the as meant to be. But i suppose it all depends on price and how easy it is to remove/install.

    Factory covers isn't available as an accessory. You would have to buy all the pieces individually and assemble. Price would be astronomical

    There have been a few listed for sale here that were very reasonably priced. Best to find someone locally that wants to sell theirs so you can also exchange the side rail tops (that need to be cut).

    Today, 35 days after the above post, I received this reply from Fold-A-Cover:

    Thank you for contacting Steffens Enterprises, the makers of Fold-a-Cover!

    The cover you are seeking is close to being released for production, but unfortunately an exact date has not been supplied as of yet. With that being said, we do have a contact list of individuals to be notified as soon as the cover is released and I will be sure to add your information.

    If we can do anything further in the meantime, please do not hesitate to let us know.

    Thank you,

    Customer Service

    ---12/24/2015 01:22:33 AM---Please State the Nature of your contact: Interested in Fold-a-Cover products


    I do like the Fold-A-Cover G4 features, and have several weeks before my Tacoma scheduled for delivery. The wording they use leads me to believe they do not make the cover themselves. If they can't get product to market, I'm also partial to the Solid Fold 2.0, the info in this thread and experience of current owners has been very helpful

    I've been holding off for the G4 Elite and got the same response when I contacted them. According to their web site their products are made in the USA.

    I'm not that concerned about where it's made, more that they don't have control or actually know when product will be available for sale. If it's made in China or Chicago isn't the issue to me, more that they don't seem to have any idea when they will have covers to sell. Maybe I'm just reading into the statement, and they are just trying to be vague enough to not make a promise they can't keep on delivery. It sure looks like a good design.

    Installed the Undercover Flex (FX41014) over the weekend. Really easy install, and seems fairly weather resistant. Will need to shore up corners with some additional weatherstripping it looks like to really keep the elements out.

    There you go posting pictures and I'm trying to hold off till March. If I do pop on the "Flex" I'm buying from the local truck supply and let them install it. That way if it don't suit me I can have them tweak it to my liking.

    I was going to have the "Flex" put on that 15 Colorado I bought back in May. Glad I held off on that long enough to see I did not like the truck. I lost enough cabbage on that deal anyway.

    The "Flex" looks good on your truck. Bet if more people saw them on a truck in person they would be buying one. I saw a model of the "Flex" and I could see it is well put together.

    I installed the Undercover SE today. It is completely rainproof and it is easy to remove when I need to use the full bed.

    Damn dude that was another choice of mine. Looks good on the black truck. Did you put a tailgate seal on your truck? If not and you drive on country roads it will suck dust. Talked to a guy at Walmart last year that had one on a F-150. He liked it but his bed sure was dusty was his only complaint. I mentioned the tailgate seal to him but don't know if he bothered with putting one on.

    After looking at the background in your pics I doubt you drive on any gravel. I have a "Street Princess" myself. Black Betty I call her.

    Thanks! It is a very good cover. I didn't know it would suck dust. Would that be an issue with all bed covers?
    Thank you for the tip! I'll put a tailgate seal for sure now that I know.

    On a normal day no, but I go to our hunting club every two weeks or so, and even more during hunting season. So yes, I think a tailgate seal would be a good idea.
