"This was my second Extang. First one was in great shape after 6 years, but had to sell that truck. Installation was very simple and the directions very clear. Total time was about 25 minutes (my 14 year old son did most of it on his own). Wind flap is minimal...provided that you install correctly, using the weather stripping provided. Don't hesitate to by this cover. Excellent value, looks great and haven't had a drop of water in the bed yet!"

"This is my 4th Extang Tonneau cover from Dodge Ram's to Toyota Tacomas and here are my issues with the quality going down: Your aluminum extrusions are not debured at the ends. Your cut opreration is either to fast for the blade speed or to much force when cutting. When I tried to remove the tailgate end it was wedged in because the burrs folded over when I installed the end pieces causing a shimed fit. This utlimately caused me to scratch my New truck and tail lens when removing. The placement of stickers for the clamps are off by as much as a 1/4 inch from either side. Who wants slanted bows? The cover itself has a slight wrinkle in the rear corner. The product reminds me that the parts came from China. Since I have been there setting up manufacturing, I am probably hitting the nail on the head. Please keep your quality standards in check. Your product, at one time, was top shelf.

"Cover fit like a glove. Very easy to install. Installation took less than an hour. Hardess part was getting the snaps snaped the first time. Took 2 of us to snap the rear snaps."

Evolutionary Improvements Enhance Appearance and Durability

"Excellent fit and easily installed. Crossmember design is especially good. Details like snap retainers on back of side rail, corner connections and crossmember attachment sites are well designed and are obviously evolutionary improvements. I still own a 1991 Chevy shortbed bought new on which I installed, in 1991, a cover purchased at Sears which was manufactured by a small Co. eventually aquired by Lund (I learned because I have bought 2 new covers) which has the basics the new Extang unit bought for the 2009 shortbed has but lacks the evolutionary improvement which significantly enhance the cover durability and appearance,especially in the crossmember design and crossmember attachment mechanism.
I like the Extang cover a lot and I think in the long run the "attached frame design" like the classic platinum and my old Sears unit will look better longer since the cover portion is replaceable for a "new look" for less than an intergrated folding frame cover model replacement.
The Tonneau was received quickly and was packaged well.
There were no instructions although the box had some clues in the illustrations showing the features of the rail joints and snap components."

"Delivery was exceptionally prompt
Intallation instructions were very helpful
Actual installation was a "snap"
However each of the three bows were not manufactured properly. The plastic ends would slip/slide right out the end of the aluminum bow.
After some frustration, we were able to re-seat these ends into the bow - something the Michigan factory should have done. Just disappointed we needed to do anything at all.
Overall, this is the second Extang Classic Cover we have purchased and are satisfied with our purchases."

"Looked at other products but this was the best buy for the money,about an hour installation time,laid parts out the night before,reversed clips,etc. Was on 2 road trips (6hrs) held up fine.Look at battery operated lights for bed night loading works great."

"Fast shipping and best price on the net. This cover is of great quality and value. I was impressed with the fact that I was able to install it without any problems in 30 degree weather. The only thing that I don't like is the clamps. They offer "Standard or Import". The Standard clamp has the capscrew on the top which interferes with the bows. The Import has the capscrew on the bottom which would not interfere with the bows. I received the Standard."
