I’ve had the cover for about 5 months with no problems, but today driving on the highway, I had it folded and it blew away, clamps that hold cover to truck broke and cover went out flying. There were cars behind me and luckily it didn’t hit anyone. I just think that if this cover is meant to fold it shouldn’t come off vehicle that easy. This is a dangerous thing when driving on the highway.


In order to address the reviews stating that the clamps don't secure the cover rails to the bed rails, I have a suggestion. When tightening the bolt of the clamp, it is imperative that the "teeth" of the clamps engage with the grooves of the cover rail so that the whole clamp doesn't twist while securely tightening. I suggest forging the grooves of the cover rail to be wider so that the clamp "teeth" can mate up easier.
Secondly, when the cover is installed there is still quite a bit of rain water getting into the bed of the truck. In my opinion, part of the purpose of a bed cover is to keep the contents of the bed dry. I have a suggestion for that problem as well. Currently the cover comes with about a 3/4" rubber "seal strip" that sits on top of the front bed rail. That 3/4" is not wide enough to keep rain water from getting into the bed. I suggest increasing the width of that rubber "seal strip" to about 2" so that rain water can run off the cover, over the 2" "seal strip", into the area between the truck bed and truck cab.
I think the cover is a good value as is, but with the suggested changes to the design to address some negative reviews, this bed cover would be an even better value.
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.
Very happy with my purchase the Item arrived on time and in great condition and the price is very reasonable. Bed cover was easy to install, maybe 10 minutes start to finish. It has been a very rainy fall and winter in NJ and I have not had a drop of water in my bed.
2013 FX4, low profile mounts on inside of bed rails. this works fine with plastic bed covers and rhino lining. you will want to mount about a 1/4" higher than flush to ensure you can close tailgate then snap down cover into locking place. this will ensure the tailgate seal sits on top of gate and not inside when closed. on #2 tightness setting in below freezing temps and fit is tight and no ripples. very little movement at higer speeds that i can see. i just wanted a cover to keep things dry, not to store valueables. this is perfect and looks great.
Great quality product. I wanted a low profile look and that's what I got. Fits snug, was almost too tight on the loosest setting when I first installed it but it stretched enough that it's good now. For a good quality cover at a good price, this is the way to go!
Great cover. Goes on super easy. Looks nice too.

I redacted the 5 star review and took it to 3 for one reason. I have pinched the **** out of my finger three times now on the rear latches. That handle will pinch your finger in there perfectly and peel your skin clean off. And I also feel that when you fold it up, it's just a matter of time before one of the handles punches a hole in your cover. The latch falls out of its slot and of you drop the folded section, that threaded rod will go right they the vinyl.
FANTASTIC!! Arrived early. A perfect fit. Only took My husband 5 minutes to install. This is TOP of the line in these covers, Price is very reasonable Just wished included a couple extra clamps just in case. Thought it had a light but no problem. This was a birthday present and my husband is so happy with this. GREAT PRODUCT! - It will also save in gas by having one of these. I could not found anything better than this NO WHERE. GREAT COMPANY _ GREAT PRODUCT
Fits like a glove. Price was exceptional. Easy install. Love it.
It is sturdy and durable. Well worth the money
