Will a Retrax XR With Wide Rails Look Better on My 2018 Chevy Silverado Than Standard Rails?

Silverado Owner: Yeah, hi. I'm trying to buy a Retrax bed cover from you guys.

Shaun: Okay, did you want the aluminum version, or which one are you looking at?

Silverado Owner: The aluminum one, I have the part number, but I got two different part numbers, and I want to know which is the best one.

Shaun: What do you got man?

Silverado Owner: I got the 8461 and the 8471.

Shaun: Okay, so the 8461 is going to be the Retrax Pro MX, without the stake pocket holes.

Silverado Owner: Okay that's a bit weird. Oh you know what, it is the 460 I'm sorry, not the 461. That's got the cut out pockets right, the 460?

Shaun: Okay, yeah 460, the 460 does, and what did you say 471?

Silverado Owner: 471. Yes

Shaun: Yeah 471. It has the wide rails.

Silverado Owner: Oh, I see, but it doesn't have the cut out pockets?

Shaun: No, they are meant to cover the whole rail, so that way then, it takes away where its cut half way down the rail. But let me tell you about something real quick. What do you use your truck for?

Silverado Owner: I don't use it much, the truck most of the time its parked, but you know whenever I go somewhere everything should stay locked in place, you know what I mean?

Shaun: Well, let me ask you man. Do you use kayaks or surfboards or fishing poles or anything?

Silverado Owner: I don't, I don't use any of that stuff, I don't think I need cut out pockets.

Shaun: Well no. I was going to tell you that, you know, you're looking at the Retrax Pro, and I'm guessing the matte black version? But they have a new one that is the Retrax XR, and that one has different rails where it has a T slot in it. Right now they are giving away Yakima load bars. Um, I don't know if you have heard of Yakima?

Silverado Owner: You know what, I've seen them in pictures. Like, yeah. I think I know what you are talking about. But that price is a lot more, right?

Shaun: No, no, that's why I'm telling you because right now they are giving those away. That's $550 value, and the cover is only $100 more than the MX. They both come with a lifetime warranty.

Silverado Owner: Now I got three choices.

Shaun: Yeah, see, you thought I was trying to sell you, but I was looking out for you.

Silverado Owner: I didn't know about the wide rails. You think it would look better than the other ones?

Shaun: I think the covers are awesome I'll tell you that much, but as far as the wide rails go, yeah it would make it look more flush, more finished.

Silverado Owner: There we go, okay ... if it covers the whole thing, yes. What about price-wise, they are pretty much the same, right?

Shaun: What's the truck details?

Silverado Owner: It's a 2018 Chevy Silverado 1500 with a short bed

Shaun: It's just an extra 100 bucks for the wide rails.

Silverado Owner: Oh man that sounds pretty good.

Shaun: Yes sir, we actually order directly from them in North Dakota. They will build your cover to order, and they'll ship it out to you within 48 to 72 hours.

Silverado Owner: Okay, so you recommend the wide rails, right, they are better, they look better?

Shaun: Yeah, I think between that one and the standard rails they do look better because they fill more of your truck bed rails out. It looks better. It covers the stake pocket hole entirely. If you are never going to use it, you don't need it.

Silverado Owner: There we go. Okay. Well to order it, do I have to do it online, or how do I do this?

Shaun: You can call me or I can send you an order right now that will include a link that you can click whenever you are ready to purchase.

Silverado Owner: Go ahead and do that for me.

Shaun: All right man. It's on its way. Should you need anything else, let us know, or if you need any help let me know too.

Chevy Colorado Owner: No we have Z71 off-road package.

Peter: Yeah, and with these, we ask that you select the part number because it asks you some specific questions about the truck.

Does the RetraxPRO MX Make a Wide Rails Cover For the New Chevy Body Style?

Silverado Owner: I'm calling today to check on a Tonneau cover, a Retrax.

Peter: Okay. What model was it?

Silverado Owner: It's a RetraxPRO MX. You sent me a price quote in my email.

Peter: The matte finish?

Silverado Owner: Yeah, the matte finish. Yes, sir.

Peter: What truck was it for?

Silverado Owner: It was for a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado.

Peter: Okay. What was the bed length?

Silverado Owner: It's a short bed.

Peter: Okay. So I've got the RetraxPRO MX in stock. It's free shipping, and there's no sales tax.

Silverado Owner: And was that price for the wide rail for the Chevy?

Peter: No, that's not the wide rail. The wide rail would be $40 more. With the wide rails it increases the price on it.

Silverado Owner: Okay. It is the 2019 short bed, but did I mention it's a new body style?

Peter: Actually, and I apologize for the confusion, but for the new body style they actually do not make the wide rails.

Silverado Owner: Oh, they don't make the wide rails?

Peter: Right.

Silverado Owner: Okay. Well, I'm trying to figure out how it would work. It would just cover up half the stake hole?

Peter: That's right.

Silverado Owner: That's kind of weird. Do they make something that's cut ... I don't know what to do. What would you suggest if they don't ... Would you have something cut out for the stake, or do they make that, too?

Peter: They do not make that for the new body style.

Silverado Owner: So what it's going to do is cover up half the stake hole. That's kind of weird though, isn't it? 

Peter: It actually doesn't look that bad. It looks fine. You aren't really going to notice.

Silverado Owner: Let me try this. Yeah, let's go ahead and get that order in for the standard RetraxPRO MX.

Peter: Okay. So I'm going to get this shipped out right now. Give me just a second here. Okay.

Silverado Owner: And that comes with the seals, the back bed auto grade seal, all that stuff?

Peter: That's right. And I'm getting it in for shipping right now. There we go. I've confirmed it, so you're good to go.

What's the Best Retrax Cover for a 2007 Chevy 3500 Extended Cab Long Bed?

Chevy Owner: I'm looking for a Tonneau cover and I got an email back from you folks yesterday and now I'm just following up. I'm interested in the Retrax Pro XR.

Peter: Okay. Gotcha. What truck is it for?

Chevy Owner: It's for a 2007 Chevy 3500 Extended Cab long bed.


Peter: Okay. Let me see. Let me double check this, Retrax Pro XR for a 2007 Chevy 3500 eight foot bed. Got it, have we sent you a quote yet?

Chevy Owner: Yes, I received a quote yesterday.

Peter: It's also free shipping and there's no sales tax if you're ordering from outside of Arizona.

Chevy Owner: All right. I have just a couple questions. I saw something that if you buy before the end of April you get some Yakima crossbars.

Peter: That's correct. That's a rebate from Retrax right now.

Chevy Owner: So if that's included is there anything I have to do to get that?

Peter: Yeah the rebate is through Retrax, so you basically send in the rebate form and then they'll send you the bars.

Chevy Owner: Okay. Those are Yakima crossbars right?

Peter: That's correct.

Chevy Owner: Perfect. Now there was one question about whether or not this truck had wide top rails in terms of fit.

Peter: Well Retrax makes wide rails for some trucks, but not yours.

Chevy Owner: Okay. I just have this truck and I know that the top of the bed is four and a half inches wide or something so I didn't know if there was another model that was thinner or skinnier or this was standard. This cover covers up the stake bed holes, is that right?

Peter: Partially, yes.

Chevy Owner: Alright, so you folks don't carry the bike trays, the bicycle holders from Yakima?

Peter: We do not.

Chevy Owner: Okay. So then I'm looking at an email here. There's some other tailgate seal or something that you're going to include that seals up the space between your bed and the tailgate? What's that all about?

Peter: Yeah it's a tailgate seal kit. Just keeps water and dust out. It's a good addition with the tonneau cover.

Chevy Owner: Okay. So just go over everything one more time that I'm gonna get from you folks for the quoted price.

Peter: It's the Retract Pro XR, the rebate is included. So you'll send in the rebate form to get the Yakima bars and then we'll also be including the tailgate seal kit for free.

Chevy Owner: Sounds good and then so what do you expect shipping time to be on that?

Peter: Five to seven days.

Chevy Owner: Okay. I'll go ahead and order

Peter: Yeah you're all set. You're good to go.

Chevy Owner: Perfect. Easy, I like it. I'm excited. Thank you.
