My wife found this tonneau cover for me on Amazon and I am thrilled with it's quality considering the price of $735!

I hauled it over to a good friend's house this morning to install it. It shipped in two boxes and was well packaged with solid foam and wood dunnage. It took us about three to four hours to install, but that was with us taking breaks to drink water and talking a lot. The install got a a little frustrating at times as the instruction were a little unclear on some points of instruction. Also, we had a an issue with the lock mechanisms that required some small tweaking to get working right. The lock uses a lever with a rubber stopper to friction lock the cover. We had to shave a little off the rubber stoppers until we could get the cover to lock properly.
Another, only slightly annoying feature of this cover is it features two locks. Both of these locks are keyed differently! Also, you have to walk around the back of the truck and make sure both are popped open to roll the cover. A very, very, very small annoyance.
During the install, we removed the factory drop-in bed liner and I scrubbed the bed and cleaned the underside of the bed liner. It came to me without the rubber tie down covers/plugs installed and there were a lot of leaves and dirt that had gotten down in there. Then we figured out where to drill holes in the bed liner to be able to drain the cover out through the plugs in the nose of the bed. That aspect of it came out pretty nice.
Overall, I am VERY thrilled with the quality of the cover and the price!
