Tri-fold Tonneau
Cover Review
Ken Bishop
The first thing I have to say about the Tri-Fold folding tonneau cover by Lund Genesis is this truck
bed has an incredible amount of recommendations to other interested buyers. People seem to love their tri-fold tonneau cover. It's kind of
hard to write about the good and the bad points when mostly what I read are good points. Let me give you a description and some of its
features and then I will get into its good and bad points.
The Tri-Fold tonneau cover is shipped pre-assembled and just needs to be installed on your pickup
truck. This truck bed cover is constructed of a double-sided tear resistant fabric which should give you many years of use. The hardware for
this truck lid is made of aluminum and is powder coated. It has straps which hold the tarp secure when in the open position. The Tri-Fold
tonneau cover comes with a lifetime warranty. Lund boasts that you are able to install this cover in under three minutes. In my opinion it
would take a little longer if you cared about your purchase at all. But I would agree it does install very fast.
The Lund Tri-Fold tonneau cover is very popular and is highly recommended by previous buyers.
Previous buyers say they have noticed an increase in their gas mileage and admire how quickly the cover is installed. They also appreciate how
the truck bed cover looks on their pickup trucks. Many are very happy with the folding feature and how quick and easy it is to get to access
to their truck bed compared to snap covers they previously owned. Previous buyers also mentioned how dry their cargo stayed even after heavy
rains. Of course this next goes for pretty well all truck lids but if your looking for the benefits of owning a tonneau cover... it is
excellent in protecting your cargo from the wind. It also keeps your cargo out of the eyes of people who take things that don't belong to
them. Many people say they love doing business with the people I personally am involved with and they would buy from them again for sure. It's
always nice when I hear that.
Now as in any product people do find some negative things about it. Some people are concerned
with the plastic parts of the clamps they would rather if they were metal. A few have said they wished the tri-fold tonneau cover had the same
contour as their truck bed. It seems on some trucks the corners round off and the tri-fold corners are not so round causing the corner of the
lid to stick out a little farther than the truck bed. Another suggestion some people had was Lund provide more foam tape especially if you
have a bed liner that goes over the rails of your truck bed, it seems some vehicles have a little gap that needs to be filled. Another
suggestion was Lund provide a metal loop on the tonneau so one could attach a cable and a lock so someone would not be able to steal the cover
itself. One more thing worth mention if you have a bed liner that goes over the rails of your truck be prepared to have to make some minor
cuts in the bed liner to permit the use of the clamps.
I could go on talking about how pleased people are with the Tri-Fold tonneau cover but instead I will
sum it up by saying this.... Do I think the Tri-Fold tonneau cover by Lund is worth the money? In my opinion, by everything I have read about
this truck bed cover I have come to the conclusion this truck lid is worth more than what you are going to pay for it. The good points
outweigh the bad points heavily.
