Truxedo Junk?
Just got a Truxedo cover for Fathers Day. The thing looks well built, but the fit is terrible. Screws were to short on the clamps and if I slide it back far enough for a seal on the tailgate, the corners stick over the bed. Last Truxedo I had fit well but I still think the Extang revolution has it beat. They just don't offer it for my year. For 300 bucks you'd think they could engineer a better product.

I have a Truxedo LoPro QT on mine and it fits great. I haven't water proofed the tailgate, but it hasn't let any water in yet. There are no openings at the front or the rear of the bed and the sides are secured with velcro. Not bad for $300 shipped off eBay. Took me 15 minutes to install it, too.

My Screw has the curved bed. Maybe that has something to do with the fit. I dunno.

Is it for the 09? Maybe you got one for the 05-08 series...
