Having just purchased a 2020 Chevy Silverado LT 4x4 on 02 MAY 2020, the very first thing I did was to have a Line-X bed liner sprayed in to protect my bed. I don't plan on hauling a lot of gear, but not only was I looking for protection, but also for the sound deadening qualities of a spray -in liner as well as the clean looks they give. The next thing on my aftermarket list was going to be a tonneau cover. I did a lot of research and immediately knew that I did not want a soft cover, as they offered very little protection of anything in the bed, as a razor could easily slice it open in a matter of seconds.
Although initially undecided on which cover to get and where to purchase it, I was fortunate that my non-Yelping Uncle (Frankie R. III) and his soon to be son-in-law (non-Yelper Phil D.) were friends with Myron Ancona (owner) at Van Village Motorsports. My Uncle also just purchased a 2020 Silverado and had a BAKFlip 4 hard tonneau cover installed on his truck at Van Village. After seeing how good his looked, and after getting a good price quote from Myron, I purchased and had a BAKFlip 4 hard tonneau cover installed on 16 MAY 2020. The BAKFlip 4 is a very popular choice as its folding configuration lets you choose whether to leave it closed and locked, open 1/3 of the way, 2/3 of the way or fully open. It is a quality cover and does not interfere with the third brake light when folded up against the cab to allow for taller items to be placed in your bed.
The BAKFlip 4, although not water tight, stops approximately 95-98% (my unprofessional estimate) of water from getting into the bed during a rain storm or a trip to the automated car wash. The rails of the cover have drain tubes which were routed through two pre-existing holes in the bed intended for additional hooks for cargo. Any water exits through the drain tubes in an effort to keep your bed and cargo dry. The truck already had 12 hooks from the factory and 9 additional holes for more hooks; therefore, losing 2 holes does not really affect your cargo securing strategies. The installation only took 45-60 minutes and the cover has been rock solid for the past 5 months.
Myron Ancona runs a good shop and I definitely recommend them. read more
