RealTruck TruXedo TruXport Soft Roll Up Truck Bed Tonneau Cover | 249801 | Fits 2015 - 2022 Chevy/GMC Colorado/Canyon 5' 3" Bed (62.7")

First of all, I wish I didn’t procrastinate so much before finally buying this tonneau cover. It has been well worth the investment. I purchased it prior to a long distance trip with the intention it would reduce wind drag and hopefully provide better fuel economy. That’s exactly what it did. I had almost 2mpg better fuel mileage overall for the trip. With gas prices these days, I really couldn’t complain. Pros: - fair price to quality ratio (high quality) - very easy installation - improved mileage - provides excellent protection from rain - clean look Cons: - don’t have any criticism yet. If I find anything worth noting as time goes on I’ll add an update

My TruXport cover (2015 Colorado) arrived quickly, was well packaged with all contents being present and in good working order. Installation was straightforward with the instructions provided. Total install time was about 20 – 25 minutes and the only tool required was a 1/2 inch socket. When installing the bulkhead seal, I opted to adhere the seal to the bottom of the cover assembly rather than to the bulkhead (the directions indicate this when installing the cover on a bed with a bed liner or spray-in liner). This seems to give more flexibility in positioning the cover assembly on the bulkhead without worry of being out of alignment with the seal. The cover works great, looks great and is weather tight. Went through a high pressure car wash with it today and only a small amount of spray made it through the tail gate seal. 100% satisfied with the cover. Great price and great product!

So many choices when it comes to covering your truck bed. Hard top, soft top? Folding or roll up? Raised or flush? It depends what's important to you and how much you're willing to spend. Personally, I wanted to be able to put stuff in my truck bed and not worry about people grabbing it when I'm parked somewhere. Which is pretty much the main reason anybody wants a tonneau cover, duh. But my other requirement was I wanted to have full access to the uncovered bed on demand without having to remove pieces and put them somewhere else as well as not blocking visibility. And that pretty much limits you to a rolling soft top. A hard shell may hinge up but you have to take it off and leave it somewhere for full bed access. Folding tonneau covers will give you access to 2/3 or 3/4 of the bed but to get all of it you either need to take it off or flip it up so it blocks the rear window. But a rolling tonneau cover quickly rolls up and secures against the back of the cab without obstructing the view or the bed access. But is it secure? You cannot access the latches without opening the tailgate so if your tailgate is locked then yes. But the velcro sides? This model has a preset tension that is tight enough that you'd have a very hard time trying to reach in from the sides, much less take anything out. But it's a fabric top, someone could just cut it? Yes they could, nothing's completely secure. Give me a minute with a good pry bar and that fancy hardshell cap is just as vulnerable. The key is it conceals the contents - nobody knows if there's anything in there and, if so, if it's worth the effort to steal. And then it takes extra effort to get in there, unusual effort that would stand out to passersby, and that's not worth the risk for an unknown payoff. It's a deterrent, and as a deterrent it works just as well as a much more expensive hard cap. That said, what about this model specifically? I found the instructions pretty easy and the installation pretty simple with minimal tools needed and no drilling. For those concerned about watertightness, having properly followed the instructions I've been in a number of storms so far without a leak. It's easy to store and deploy. It does sit above the top edge of the truck bed but I'm fine with that - they have a "low profile" model that doesn't look like is worth the higher price for the minimal lower height while flush options are more cumbersome, expensive, and may be more prone to leaking. My only complaint is how it lines up with the outside contour of the truck bed lip. The inside lip is perfectly rectangular and this cover follows that shape, perfectly rectangular. But the outside contour is wider near the cab (2016 Colorado) than near the tailgate so aesthetically it's a little odd. Also, the stake holes, which are meant to be used as handholds, end up halfway covered, looks strange. You can get some stake hole caps here to solve that, just put them in before you install the tonneau cover. And if you leave them open, they still work as handholds, though a tight fit. Overall I've been satisfied with the purchase.

I read complains about the weather stripping. It could be a little thicker, but is adequate. Make sure if you have a bed liner that you adhere it to the cover itself adding to the existing one and NOT to the bed liner. Again, apply the weather stripping to the cover head stock and NOT to the bed liner. I would do the same without a bed liner too, because you have to maneuver it around and if you adhere it to your truck box it might not line up properly. It takes some tinkering with to install it just right, so don't tighten the clams too much at first, leaving play so you can maneuver it around wide enough so the cover fits into the tailgate latch assembly, and so it doesn't hang too far over so you can close the truck gate without damaging the cover. It has a nice tight flat fit and rain didn't seem to pool up at all. I would caution against anyone who has chubby fingers because the velcro straps that hold the cover behind the cab when not in use fall behind the cab and bed when in use and if you have thicker fingers you might not be able to fish them out when you want to use your bed to haul. There isn't much room on my Chevy Colorado between the cab and bed. Overall for the price it seems to be a good value, but time will tell how well it stands up to the Florida heat and Sun. I would recommend it as long as you have normal hands, I'm 6'1 160 and works for me.

Great tonneau cover made in USA. Excellent quality and really easy to install, all you need is just 1/2” socket. That simple. Fits my 2022 Chevy Colorado 5’2” bed like a glove.

Very pleased with this product: looks great, easy to install, easy to use. We ordered the 5' cover in error and had to return and exchange for 6'. Hitchweb Canada was fantastic to deal with, very prompt and courteous staff. From start to finish with both items took 10 days. Awesome!

Easy to install no drill or modification needed to the truck. Took about 40 mins to install and love it

looks good, but unable to use cause there are no hold down clamps

A great cover, it is water tight and looks good.
