Is the BAKFlip Revolver X4 easy to install on a 2015 Ford F150 Super Crew?

F-150 Owner: I thought that maybe you could answer a couple questions. I was looking at the BAKFlip. I was looking at two of them. First the MX4, but my preference is a Revolver X4, to be honest with you. I kind of like that setup. I kind of wanted your opinion on it. It seems like you know what you're talking about when it comes to covers.

Peter: Yeah, so they're both great. They both have a matte black finish. Some guys choose the Revolver over the BAKFlip because when it's all the way open, they can still see out their back window, a little bit. Where as the folding cover is going to block it completely. So that's really kind of the deciding factor for most guys when they're deciding between those two, but they're both great covers. They're super popular, very well reviewed. You can't go wrong with either.

F-150 Owner: Is the Revolver X4 easy to install?

Peter: It is.

F-150 Owner: I tried watching a video. It looked pretty simple; a couple rails and a couple attachments and that was it.

Peter: That's right.

F-150 Owner: I've been getting your emails forever, so I figured I would finally call to take advantage of your awesome prices. However, I was looking at Amazon and they've obviously got the lowest price, so I kind of wanted to see if you could match that.

Peter: They may have the lowest price, but you'll have to pay sales tax with Amazon. We offer free shipping and no sales tax if you order outside of Arizona.

F-150 Owner: Okay let's do the Revolver X4. It would be on a 2015 Ford F150.

Peter: Okay.

F-150 Owner: And it's a SuperCrew.

Peter: That's the short bed?

F-150 Owner: And a short bed, yeah. What's delivery time on that?

Peter: It's about 5-7 days.

F-150 Owner: That's kind of the big thing. I've been delayed because I actually got stuck out of town for a few days because the weather. I wanted to have it on my truck by Friday. I thought I saw something where you guys had two-day delivery. Was I wrong on that?

Peter: We do, it's expedited, but it costs a little bit more. It's still really reasonable though. I could get it to you by Wednesday, or Thursday at the very latest for $24.99.

F-150 Owner: Are you serious? Okay. All right. Well I'll tell you what. If you could do it do you promise it'd be here no later than Thursday?

Peter: Yes.

F-150 Owner: Okay, and that's the Revolver X4 for my truck: the F150.

Peter: That's right.

F-150 Owner: Okay. What do you think installation time is on that, if I did it myself? I'm not super mechanically inclined, but I could figure it out.

Peter: Once you get everything out of the box we're talking probably 30 minutes or so.

F-150 Owner: Oh, okay. Well, let's do this. Can I do this with you on the phone or do I need to do it by email?

Peter: No, I can take care of it.

Ford F150 Owner: Hey, I was just returning your email from over the weekend looking for a tonneau cover for a 2006 Ford F-150.

Peter: Okay. What's the bed length?

Ford F150 Owner: I want to say it's six, six and a half foot bed.

Peter: Okay, and which cover were you looking at?

Ford F150 Owner: I think it was the BAKFlip G2.

Ford F150 Owner: You sent a price like in your email to me as well.

Peter: Yes, plus it's free shipping and there's no sales tax if you're ordering from outside of Arizona. Do you want to get that ordered today?

Ford F150 Owner: Yeah, but I have a question. With the 2006 I know it's different than the 2009. So, just as long as that's the right one. Yeah, let's do it.

Peter: Alright. Allow five to seven days for delivery on this. You're going to receive a payment confirmation here in just a second.

Ford F150 Owner: The BAKFlip G2 doesn't require any drilling for installation, right?

Peter: That's right.

Ford F150 Owner: Okay, perfect. Hey. I appreciate your help.

What is the Best BAK Tonneau Cover for a GMC Sierra 1500 New Body Type

GMC Owner: Hey, the tonneau cover that you had told me about, that BAKFlip, which model was it? Was it the F-1 or was it something different?

Peter: What truck was it for?

GMC Owner: It's a GMC Sierra 1500. It's the new model, new body type, short bed.

Peter: Okay, so yeah, I recommended either the MX4 or the F-1, which is only $10 more than the MX4.

GMC Owner: And what's the difference between those two covers?

Peter: The difference is that the MX4 is aluminum, and the F1 is a fiberglass-reinforced polymer, so it's a stronger material.

GMC Owner: Yeah, that's probably what I'd be looking for. And that will fit that new body truck no problem?

Peter: Yes, absolutely.

GMC Owner: Okay, I'm going to just take some time to think about if I want to go with the MX4 or the F1

Peter: Okay

Does the BAKFlip MX4 Include Weather Stripping or a Tailgate Seal?

GMC Owner: Hey, Peter. I had sent you an e-mail a couple weeks back and I received a price quote from you about a tonneau cover.

Peter: Okay. What truck is it for?

GMC Owner: It's for a 2019 GMC Sierra AT4.

Peter: Okay. And which tonneau cover were you looking at?

GMC Owner: It's a MX4 BAKFlip.

Peter: Okay. Yep. It's free shipping and there is no sales tax if you are ordering from outside of Arizona.

GMC Owner: That sounds good. And then one of the e-mails mentioned some weather stripping that you could add on? Is that included with the MX4, or is that from you guys? 

Peter: Yes. I believe you're referring to a tailgate seal. I can include the tailgate seal kit for free, and that comes from our warehouse here, so it will arrive separately. 

GMC Owner: Okay, cool. What is the shipping time on that?

Peter: It's about five days.

GMC Owner: About five days. What would it cost for expedited shipping?

Peter: Let me see. It's only if you qualify. You said it was a 2019 GMC Sierra? What was the bed length?

GMC Owner: Short, 5'8"

Peter: Got it, okay. Okay, I can get it to you by Wednesday for an additional $24.99.

GMC Owner: Okay. Yeah, that sounds good.

Peter: Okay, I'll get the shipping set up now

Is the BAKFlip MX4 One of The Best Tonneau Covers on The Market for a 2019 Chevy El Dorado?

Chevy Owner: Hi, I'm inquiring about a tonneau cover for my truck. I just got your email with a price quote.

Peter: Okay, what truck is it for?

Chevy Owner: For a 2019 Chevy El Dorado. Crew cab with a short bed.

Peter: Okay, and which cover were we talking about?

Chevy Owner: So I'm looking for a hard cover tonneau, looking at some of the different ones you recommended. The BAKFlip?

Peter: Right.

Chevy Owner: The G2 or something?

Peter: Yep, that's a great cover.

Chevy Owner: That one or something similar to that. I like that one because it looks like it sits pretty flush compared to some of the other ones that you guys recommended.

Peter: It does. So the G2 is made of aluminum, it sits flush inside the bedrail. It's a tri-fold, but it can fold completely up out of the bed and secure behind the cab, so you have full use of your bed when you need to. So you've got a lot of versatility there. I've got the best price on that, which is what I emailed you earlier. It's free shipping and there's no sales tax if you're ordering from outside of Arizona.

Chevy Owner: Okay. Sounds pretty good. I know there was one that's a little upgrade from the G2.


Peter: Yeah, that'd be the MX4. That one's made of a little bit tougher aluminum and it's got a three year warranty instead of a two year warranty.

Chevy Owner: Okay. So the aluminum is a little bit thicker gauge or something like that?

Peter: Right.

Chevy Owner: But the mechanism and the folding versatility is pretty much the same?

Peter: Right.

Chevy Owner: Okay. Is there anything comparable or somewhat similar in a hard cover that can fold for a lower price than what you quoted me?

Peter: There's not.

Chevy Owner: Okay. So it's probably the best value for the money, that's what you're saying?

Peter: That's right.

Chevy Owner: Okay. In your opinion is the BAKFlip MX4 one of the best tonneau covers on the market? 

Peter: It is, absolutely, and it's the most popular.

Chevy Owner: If I place that order how long does it take for you guys to ship that out, do you guys carry them or?

Peter: Yeah, they're in stock but you'd receive it in about five days.

Chevy Owner: I'm gonna order the MX4, but I'll have to call you a little bit later. 

Peter: Ok

How Do I Find the Lowest Price for a Brand New BAKFlip F1 tonneau cover?

Dodge Ram Owner: How are you guys able to offer tonneau covers so much cheaper than everybody else?

Peter: So we actually work directly with the manufacturer. We have a special deal with them because we do a ton of volume. So we have special pricing.

Dodge Ram Owner: Well I'm interested in the BAKFlip F1, but I wanted to make sure I'm not buying like a reject or a dented version or anything like that. I'm okay if that's the case, but I just want to know about it ahead of time.

Peter: Oh you're not. This is a brand new tonneau cover. Never been opened. Newest model. And it's free shipping as well.

Dodge Ram Owner: Okay, great. Your prices are really impressive, so that's good to know that it's a brand new cover. I haven't seen a new F1 cover that cheap anywhere else.

Peter: Yep. We tend to have the lowest prices around.

Dodge Ram Owner: I'd like to go ahead and place an order with you.

Peter: Sure, I'll get everything set up for shipping and you can expect to see your new cover within 5-7 days!
