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.
