    I just got my 2021 home and have an issue With the Toyota soft folding tonneau cover. Simply put I can't pull the releases down unless I'm lying on my side in the bed. It's due to arthritis, age of 70+, a few fused/pinned/rodded cervical vertebrae, replaced left knee, and a replaced right hip. It was a nasty accident a long time ago. Right now I'm working with the dealer on getting it replaced and/or my $$$ refunded.

    So here I asm looking for advice on a roll-up.

    THNX in advance.

    Don't let them buffalo you, they can sell it fairly easily. If they won't give you a decent price, flip it locally.
    Sorry, I'm no help on the roll up. The Backflips have a cable that is an easy reach and doesn't take much force.

    Dealer replaced without cost (and a bunch of apologies) after I got social media on them. All it took was posting a few jpegs of my x-rays along with the complaint. Went with a Truxedo. Same as on my previous one.
