Question Tonneaus got wings???

Hey, I have the stock tonneau cover(the one without buttons), and the rear corners are lifting up. No biggie, but it would look alot smoother it I could make them lay flat. Anyone else have this problem.

frgetit, that's common for the factory tonneau, although not as much as previous years (pre-2001). Unfortunately it's a product of the design. You can minimize it by making sure the little pull loops are being pinched by the tailgate when it shuts. That'll help pull down on the corners a bit.

I can't be positive, and I don't have this problem since I have a hard top, but I believe a couple of people cut one of the strings on the cover, and that allowed it to lay flat, but do a search before you quote me on that
