Gator ETX Soft Roll Up Truck Bed Tonneau Cover | 53306 | Fits 2004 - 2014 Ford F-150 5' 7" Bed (67")

I think I still had my finger on the purchase button and the box landed in my office. Fantastic! The Gator ETX soft trifold took maybe 5 minutes to install, but then I was taking my time...It performs perfectly in the week that I've had it. It's been raining and snowing since I got it, and today I looked in my truck bed and it's as dry as a bone inside! I've seen review mentions of it flapping or moving during travel. There's minimal movement of the vinyl but not to the point I'm at all concerned that it would cause ware or issues. Clamps are great. I wish they had more metal, but they're holding just fine.I cut about 1/8th off the plastic bed rail plastic to ensure the clamps were hitting metal at the point they contact the bed, about 1 1/4 width cuts with a utility blade. I'm excited to load my bed this weekend for a 200 mile trip to the mountains for snowmobiling. My favorite thing about this choice is that it takes two or three minutes to remove folded up and place inside the bed along the side, or leave it at home, when needing to load the truck with something big. Super fast to put on and off, super fast to open, and lightening fast delivery. I'm all in, and at this price, are you kidding me! Digging the limited lifetime and 10 year tarp warranty also. I highly recommend this for someone looking for the beauty and functionality of a great bed cover with the lightening quick versatility of removing and installing and adjusting in the snap of a finger.

I bought this Gator folding soft tonneau cover for my 2014 Ford F-150 SuperCrew pick up truck with the 6.5 foot bed (157 inch wheelbase) in late October 2018. I've been using it for two months now and so far I absolutely love it. The cover fits extremely well and so far I've had no issues with any water leakage. I've taken it on a 2000 mile road trip with heavy rain and snow and everything has stayed completely dry in the truck bed. It folds up super easy for loading and is quick & easy to take on and off. It also looks aesthetically pleasing, very clean. The unit is well made and I recommend it. When you install it for the first time, you need to notch the bottom of the plastic bedrail caps at the four clamp attachment points so the clamps contact the body metal. The instructions cover this and it took me literally a few minutes with a razor knife. Total initial install time was like 25 minutes. Now it only takes like 2 minutes to remove or reinstall it since the notch points help you line it up quickly. Great cover for the price, good job Gator.

I ordered this rollup bed cover for an upcoming trip from Houston to the Fla keys. It came quickly, and after I read the instructions twice, I installed it myself within 45 minutes. The only issue I had was the latch didn't catch to tighten down the cover. My bad as I didn't have the rear driver side rail up high enough and parallel to the bed as required. I loosened the back clamp, raised the rail a bit, tightened it and everything worked perfectly. The cover was tight, strong feeling and real nice looking. Very happy with the price, receipt time and easy install. I'll add to this review after I return from my Keys trip to report how the cover performed after driving at 75-80 mph to the southern tip of Florida.

First off, let me say that I actually really like this top a lot. It's just that I have owned many trucks and in turn tonneau covers, having bought my first back in 1998. So I'll take it in parts for the OCD shopper like myself; 1/ the cover itself- high quality, good stitching and construction. easy to fit into the retaining plate, install, and the velcro latching works like a dream in all weather. 2/ the bow system- they are included into the trop and as such roll up nicely and are self- contained. pretty much a standard of good tops these days. 3/ the rear latching mechanism- the best I have used so far! This is a really easy to lock and then open latch. no need to force anything and built so that its simple with no parts to snap or springs to pop out and break the latch. 4/ The mounting Rails. I am not a fan of the rails on the inside of the bed, as they can possibly get damaged if you use your truck as a truck and fill the bed with large, heavy objects, but I get the idea here... to keep a sleek look at the bedline and it does that nicely. 5/ Height adjustment for wether- I'm still figuring this one out. its an odd small block that is placed at the head of the bed rail, with different levels to help give the top tension. It does still seem to feel a bit loose in hot August days, however. Now the achilles tendon of the system; 6/ the rail mounting brackets. Decent machining, however they are mounted underneath the rails, using tiny grids to provide grip, and do not come with LOCKING washers OR nuts. This means that over time those nuts back off regardless of how tight you put them on. then the brackets drop off the rail and the affected rail starts to droop. when its a rear bracket, you have problems closing the tailgate, as the rails NEED to be above the tailgate for the system to work. UBER SIMPLE FIX for this, however. I have employed a total of $6.48 cents for locking washers and locking bolts that should have been part of the package to start with. This hack fixes the nut back- off issue and also allows you to tighten down the brackets firmly so that they do not fall prey to wriggling free and dropping off.So there you have it. a flawed but nice top, made in American by American labor, at a GREAT cost. If they spend the extra $7 (like only $1.50 if bought in bulk) on the right washers and bolts during production, they would have a winner tonneau.

The cover is well constructed. Instructions are easy to follow and simple to install. I highly recommend this product.

This cover fit perfectly on my husband’s 2016 F150. The cover is very secure, it is easy to remove if need to, it’s very lightweight and waterproof, nothing inside will get wet if it’s raining. The is no noise to it because of the wind so we’re very happy with this product. We’ve had it for 6 months and it’s still like new.
