Best Tonneau Cover for a 2018 GMC Crew Cab Short Bed: BAKFlip MX4 vs G2

GMC Owner: I just bought a new truck recently, a 2018 GMC, and I'm looking to get a tonneau cover

Paul: Okay. So it's a 2018 GMC with what size bed?

GMC Owner: Crew cab short bed

Paul: Alright now I recommend the MX4 which is one of the newest ones out
.

GMC Owner: What's the difference between the MX4 and the G2?

Paul: The G2 is gonna be cheaper, but its panels aren't as thick as the MX4, so the MX4 is a bit more dent resistant. The finish on its shiny instead of the matte black, the tailgate seal is a flap tailgate seal instead of a dual tailgate seal which allows you to open and close your tailgate without having to open up your cover. On the G2 you're gonna have to open up your cover every time you wanna shut that tailgate

GMC Owner: That's a good plus for the MX4. What about the warranty?

Paul: The warranty on the MX is a three year where there's only a two year on the G2.

GMC Owner: Okay, well that pretty much seals the deal. You said it's the matte satin finish instead of shiny?

Paul: Correct. If you have bed roll caps on there it should match those pretty nice.

GMC Owner: I do. Alright and that's free shipping for what I understand right?

Paul: Free shipping and no tax outside of Arizona.

GMC Owner: Good deal. Well can I go ahead and order one?

Paul: Yes, sir

How Durable is the BAKFlip F1 Rolling Tonneau Cover for a 2015 Toyota Tundra?

Toyota Tundra Owner: I sent you a request for the Bakflip F1 tonneau cover and you sent me an email.

Peter: Did you want to place an order?

Toyota Tundra Owner: Yeah, I'm thinking about it. So, it's got the three year warranty, so it's all by the BAK manufacturer, you're an authorized dealer, right?

Peter: Absolutely, we actually work directly with the manufacturer.

Toyota Tundra Owner: Okay. So, I guess if I ordered it today when would I expect to see it?

Peter: About five to seven days, so be on the safe side. It could be sooner, but that's average.

Toyota Tundra Owner: Are you able to honor the quoted price with the free shipping?

Peter: That's right.

Toyota Tundra Owner: Okay. And so that's the most heavy duty, top of the line BAKFlip model they have?

Peter: Yes, BAK makes very high quality tonneau covers.

Toyota Tundra Owner: Okay. Have you seen or handled that roll up version? I'm a little concerned about that. About it not lasting as long.

Peter: I like the hard folding covers quote a bit. What truck is it for?

Toyota Tundra Owner: It's a 2015 Toyota Tundra. I have a question. So I have the bed tie-downs that run down the side of the truck. But the adapters that came with the last cover I owned weren't good. If I hooked anything up to their tie-downs it would just bend out because they're just like flat pieces of eighth inch steel or something like that. Did I notice that in the picture it's the same part that sort of clamps onto the truck is what holds those rails now in this system?

Peter: Yeah, but you're not going to have an issue there.

Toyota Tundra Owner: Okay, so I could strap something to it, it's not going to bend in towards the truck?

Peter: Yeah, that will be just fine. What's the bed length of your truck?

Toyota Tundra Owner: Six foot seven inches.

**Transaction Completed**

Peter: Okay. All right, you're going to get a confirmation email for your purchase here in just a second and you're all set.

Toyota Tundra Owner: All right, cool man. I look forward to it. Thanks a lot.

Best Hard Folding Cover for a 2011 Ford F-150

Peter: Hello, this is Peter.

F-150 Owner: Good morning, Peter. I'm looking for a hard cover for my truck.

Peter: Okay. Like a hard folding cover?

F-150 Owner: Yeah

Peter: Okay. So, which brand or model have you been looking at?

F-150 Owner: I've looked at a BAKFlip.

Peter: Okay. Yeah, those are by far the most popular; the highest quality. What truck is it for?

F-150 Owner: My 2011 Ford F-150.

Peter: The BAKFlip G2 is a very popular model. It's a tri-fold, but it can fold completely up out of the bed and secure behind the cab, so that you have full use of your bed when you need to. You get a lot of versatility there, and you get a lot of security as well. I've got that one for a great price with free shipping, and there's no sales tax if you're ordering from outside of Arizona.

F-150 Owner: I know somebody that has that on their truck. My neighbor does. That's why I started looking. I liked it. It's hard. It's secure, somewhat waterproof.

Peter: Right.

F-150 Owner: It sits very flush.

Peter: Yes.

F-150 Owner: Yeah. That's what we're kind of looking for. Okay. So, how do I pay for this or anything like that?

Peter: I can take care of it with you over the phone if you'd like. It's up to you. You just call in and place the order.

F-150 Owner: Then how long before it gets here?

Peter: Five days.

F-150 Owner: Okay, and you guys are warrantied and everything?

Peter: Yes.

F-150 Owner: Okay. Hey, this is it. I like the price. I like it. We're going to go ahead and get one.  

Peter: Okay, sounds good!

What's the Best Tonneau Cover for a a 2019 Chevy Silverado with crew cab and a 5 foot, 8 inch bed?

Chevy Silverado Owner: I just got a 2019 Chevy Silverado with the crew cab with a 5 foot, 8 inch bed and I sent an email request last night to find out about tonneau covers

Peter: Okay. Which cover are you looking at?


Chevy Silverado Owner: I'm looking for a hard top, a foldable hard top. I want it to have a little bit more security.

Peter: Was there a particular brand or model you were looking at?


Chevy Silverado Owner: I've looked at a few online... I want to say it was a Gator.

Peter: Okay. Gator's, one of the only brands we don't sell. As, far as hard folding covers the most popular are going to be the BakFlip models. They're tri-folds but they can fold completely up out of the bed and secure behind the cab. So you'll have full use of your bed when you need too. They're very versatile.


Chevy Silverado Owner: Let's see, I think that was maybe one of the ones I was looking at; the BAKFlip G2 tonneau cover. That's what I'm looking at right now. So yeah that hard folding that's probably what I'm going to get, for pricing that's probably definitely what I was looking for.

Peter: Ok, great!

Chevy Silverado Owner: It's not a bad price from what I've seen anyways, quite a bit of difference. Let me, do you guys do financing too?


Peter: Yes.


Chevy Silverado Owner: Okay, so that's probably the best way for me to get it so I won't be paying for that outright. Alright, Peter let me give you a call back in a little bit, let me figure out what's going on. I should be able to do something this week.

Peter: Okay let me know.
