| Anyone had any experience with Fold-A-Cover? Web site is www.foldacover.com. Looks like a good product but I don't know anything about their history? | |

| I bought a C3500 chassis cab and put a 10 dump bed on it. The mirrors that come standard on the truck don't extend quite far enough to see past the bed which overhangs the duals about 7" on each side. Anyone have a good source for aftermarket mirrors that would help me? I went to a local truck accessory place and they couldn't come up with any. | |

I chose a Roll N Lock. I wanted it lockable and secure but with the ability to cary tall/bulky things that wouldn't fit under a hinged hard cover. Roll N Lock was sturdier than Pace Edwards and had the built in lock to fasten gate to cover with one key. (no need to buy separate Pop Lock and gate locks) Its quiet, operates smoothly over the 8,000 miles I;ve used it. No snow on the gulf coast so I don't know about taht aspect. As for spray in liners....Before doing mine, I cut 2 x 6s to fit in the various bed slots, bored five 2 inch holes evenly spaced across the top edge of each one and rounded the edges with my router. They sprayed my boards and my 40+ year old tool box with the same stuff that went on the bed when they installed the Roll N Lock. the boards have been handy as the dickens for separating loads, tieing things in place etc and the finish. bed, box and boards is like brand new after a little over 8,000 miles of use.

| I have a CM folding hard cover on a 2000 Sonoma Shorted Regular Cab. It was sold by my CM dealer but is made by Fold-A-Cover. It is not as sporty as some covers but is substantial and not only locks but also locks the tail gate. I installed it myself in about 3 hours. It folds up behind the cab but is not removable. | |

Ok, I've heard about the Roll& lock covers. What's the access cover. Do you have a website for them I can check it out. Not sure what kind of cover this is. It's not one of those snap covers is it? Help. Getting a cover and spray in bedliner before winter (I HOPE) Truckchic '01 GMC Sierra K1500 |

http://www.accesscover.com/ No snaps, velcro instead. Rolls up towards the cab. Great for cold weather. Had one on my Ranger. |

Attn: jjstokes0430, How water water tight is the Fold a Cover? Thanks, Scott-o-rado |

To Scottorado The Fold-A-Cover is not water tight. The only time I get water in the bed is when I take my truck through a car wash. It comes in between the tail gate and the sides. This is not the fault of the cover but i wouldn't put anything in the bed that is water sensitive like computers or fine furniture. |

Noticed you are in MN. I'm in Chicago. How does the access cover handle in the snow? Truckchic |
