I have that cover on two Ram duallys.

These trucks are work trucks and the cover gets a lot of use. After two years they are starting to show their age. They are staring to come apart and they leak, but I'm not complaining. We beat them like rented mules. I'll get new covers when I order new trucks at the end of the year.

Thanks for the feedback. Mine came with a here year warranty. Did yours too? As long as the unit is registered on their website when purchase, the warranty should be in affect. For us, it’s going to see light duty use. We only want it for security and bed protection.

Regards,
Dan

A little late to this but I have the Undercover Flex cover and I really like it. Tri-folding and it has spring loaded cable locks that can only be opened when the tailgate is down. Post up photos of the one you bought when you get it installed.

I believe that is the same cover as the backflip. I noticed when I was shopping for mine that several companies offered the same cover under different brand names.
This was true with tri folds, roll covers, ect.

Among other things, my covers are showing the "white strands" through the black finish just like in your pictures. When new(2 years ago) they were solid black.

I have also managed to tear off all the plastic channel that covers the cables on the under side.

Put some Locktite on the prop rods or they will back off.

There is a thin piece of trim(about 1/2" wide) on top of every joint between panels that slide from side to side allowing water in. I imagine a dap or glue could fix that.
As my tops get older they allow more water in all the way around. A good bit actually.

The rubber seal at the panel joints that lays on the top side of the truck bed are "pooching up" some and that allows water instruction.

I will still buy the same covers on the next trucks. We use(abuse) them hard and I don't know of a cover that will work better and still allow the gooseneck hitch to be easily used.

I also want my chainsaws, nail guns, concrete saw, powered post driver, compressor, skil saws, recips, ect. out of site. You could pop the cover easily with a flat bar, but most thieves are lazy and want low hanging fruit.

Hey guys, thanks for the replies. We're expecting some crummy weather tomorrow. I'll get to the pics later in the week once we're clear again!

Thanks,
Dan
