LundGenesis Roll Up Soft Roll Up Truck Bed Tonneau Cover | 96053 | Fits 1999 - 2006, 2007 Classic Chevy/GMC Silverado/Sierra 1500 Classic 6' 6" Bed (78")

My Lund tonneau cover arrived on time and everything was in the package that was supposed to be. It fit my 2004 Silverado perfectly and went on easily. Probably took 10 minutes to install, but now that I know how it's done it shouldn't take 5 next time. So far it keeps my cargo dry. The only water that got in was at the carwash using the wand and even then only a few drops at the tailgate. I think it would take a hurricane to blow in rain. Very pleased with my purchase so far. Now I need the tailgate lock to provide a little security. I recommend this cover.Update December 9, 2009- the tonneau cover has held up very well. I have discovered two issues you might consider and they will be issues with any cover. #1 is dust. I live about 1/2 mile down a gravel road and somehow dust does accumulate in the bed over time even when the cover is secured.(I suspect it comes in from under the bed.) If you haul groceries in the back it's a nuisance. I just spray it out when I wash the truck. #2 is heat. These covers are black and in the sun they transfer heat to anything in contact with the underside surface. I loaded it with plants one day and closed the cover to avoid windburn on the foliage. Even though it was a mild spring day and only a 15 minute drive, the black cover got hot enough to burn all the leaves it came in contact with. Even if your not hauling plants, maybe a finished piece of furniture or anything heat sensitive, you should take care.I do love this cover though, especially for its versatility. Still a 5 star product.

Update: 1/2/2019 The top has officially outlasted the truck. It was totaled after someone turned in front of me. 275,000 trouble free miles on my GMC Sierra (I'll miss you ol' Bruce). 215,000 miles with the top on it. I took the top off and I am going to give it to a friend because it will not fit my new truck. The top is still in as good of shape as the last update that I gave. I'm about to order one to fit my new truck.Update: Almost 10 Years and 185,000 miles later it still works great! The elastic straps that hold the buckle are getting slightly stretched out and a little brittle, I'm not sure how much longer they will hold out. The tarp is starting to show some small cracks where the hinges are and the seals are pretty much gone. It might not be completely water tight if I went through a car wash now but it still keeps the rain out.I'm considering checking out how well Lund would honor the "Limited Lifetime Warranty" for the cover since it's cracking slightly at the hinges.I'm still very satisfied with this purchase. I take the cover off and put it on several times each month. All the clamps still work fine and hold it tightly to the truck bed. A friend bought another brand of the same type cover last year because he liked the functionality of mine. His is already curling up at the corners and flaps like a flag in the wind.Update: I have now owned this for right at 5 years and 110,000 miles. All the stuff I said at first is still true.I have not replaced the seals, although they could use it, but it still doesn't leak. Even in heavy rain or on the interstate.Folded forward it takes up about the same amount of room as a toolbox would. I have driven with it flipped forward and latched many times at interstate speeds and while it does lift some, it has always held. When closed, it doesn't flap any more now than when new. (it doesn't really flap much at all)I have had several people who bought one after seeing and using mine.I have had it off the truck many times. It folds and stands neatly in the corner of the garage. It's never been off for more than a day or two though.My 5 year old daughter has gotten on top of it and crawled around a couple of times recently with no effect and she weighs about 45 lbs. I have had multiple items that punched into it pretty hard while I was driving (such as bicycle handlebars)and they did not puncture or damage it either. I even drove off without latching it one time and it flew up into the air and came almost completely off the truck without damage. So it can stand up to quite a bit of abuse.I think this thing may just last me another 100,000 miles. I am so glad I didn't spend more on a hard cover that would be much harder to work with.Original Review:I have had this on my truck for a few months now and have been very satisfied. The day I got it I installed it in about 15 minutes (from getting the box off the porch to admiring it on the truck). It fits very well, looks nice, and comes with extra seals which I didn't even use.The next weekend we left on a 600 mile trip and put all our stuff in the bed. It poured down rain so hard for about an hour that I finally pulled over because of visibility. When the rain subsided I checked the bed and there was not a drop of water back there! I have since taken it through a couple of wand pressure washes and haven't seen water in there from that either.The tarp does slightly flap at highway/interstate speeds but most all soft tops will. This one isn't bad about it at all. The tarp is thick and well supported enough that I have sat a few things on top of it for a minute or two (the heaviest being my emergency kit which is about 12" x 18" and weighs about 10 lbs.)I installed a Bully tailgate lock at the same time to make everything more secure. I guess if someone really wanted in they'd just cut the top and get in that way, but if you really want maximum security, go for a hard top.I wanted convenience, things to be dry & hidden, and the ability to take it off easily by myself when I need to use the bed for something bigger. This one is lightweight, can be placed on or taken off in literally about 2 minutes by yourself, and I can drive with it open and only covering 1/3 of the bed.The only thing that would make me happier is if someone gave it to me for free, but I'll gladly buy one for my next truck too. My brother, after seeing mine, is about to order one for his truck as well.

Very easy to put on and take off

This took me about an hour to install, and it is very easy to use. Any difficulties I had with the installation were from a bent bed rails. It fits tight and minimal water has entered the bed over the winter. The water that did enter is probably from the bent bed not forming a good seal. After a month of usage the canvas needed to be tightened up as expected and it took about 5 minutes. I am very happy with it after a couple months of use.

This was perfectly sized for our 2004 GMC Sierra. Almost instant set up, and it's been super convenient to have for every day use and for camping as well. We can easily fold it back to the first third, or cover everything up during rain or transport.
