- In this video I install a new tonneau cover on my Rebel. I decided to pick up the Lomax Stance cover. This is an aluminum hard cover cover that fold up against the cab of the truck when I need access to the whole bed. This is by far one of the nicest covers I have ever had on a truck.
Here's a link to the cover: www.agricover.com/lomax-stanc...

I finally found the right tonneau cover. It's the right look, right security, and right price$. Thank you for the help.
I love my Lomax. I don’t have the one that you can fold all the way up, but I haven’t needed to so far. It doesn’t leak, fits great, no problems. Had it about a year.
Damn that’s probably the nicest tri-fold I’ve ever seen!
Was seriously considering this cover because I liked the seals, the finish appearance and the ease of installation. But then I realized that it would block the cab tail lights, stick up higher than most, creating some drag, and I would probably have to climb into the truck bed to attach the brackets unless I was extremely tall, whereas on other trifolds the support arms are on the side of the bed and nothing needs to be glued. The other trifolds also wouldn't obstruct the cab tail lights or create as much, if any, drag.
If you plan on driving with the tonneau cover up a lot (enough that you’re concerned about drag) maybe a hard trifold cover isn’t the right cover for you.
I’d look at hard rollup covers as a possible solution.
@@WaterFowler41 Still want to try a hard fold, just not this one. Had a hard rollup in my last truck. Trying something different. All the other brands sit much lower when standing. This one clears above the roof. Might even try their trifold that doesn't stand. Only needed the full bed in the Ranger a couple times. Was I correct in my observation about climbing into the bed to access and hook up the stand brackets? Thanks for getting back to me.
Thanks I can now get mine properly attached as mine was incorrectly installed at a body shop after getting a bunch of the truck fixed after a hail storm.
Glad I could help
Ehhh idk for me I don’t like the idea of having to attach anything to the top of the cab for a tonneau cover. But that’s just me.
It’s magnetic
@@DrDennis its a sticker
They’re magnetic and backed with 3m. The truck back brackets stick to the roof top brackets via the magnetism.
@@WaterFowler41 do you think the 3m will mess up paint on the truck?
simd510 nope! 3m vhb is used all the time for body moulding mounting. Very safe for the paint
Many finishes now.
Correct
very informative video, do you know, whether everything is made of Aluminum?
Pretty nice tonneau cover, but tbo I don't like the cab top mounts or the fact that the cover isn't flush with the bed rails. For my purposes, I chose a Bakflip MX4. It's been on my '17 ram for almost four years now and still looks like new. Except for the side seals, it fits flush with the side rails. Just my .02.
If your traveling at a high rate of speed on the freeway this might be an issue if the cover is up against the windows creating wind resistance compromising the latches on roof 🤔
Never had an issue and spent a significant amount of time on expressways at speed with the top propped open.
@@WaterFowler41 good news, 👍 because I went ahead and got it.
What finish did you get urethane? I like it
Great video; good information. Side question: what would you recommend to maintain they nice shinny appearance of my spray-in bed liner? Would the product used on the cover also work on the bed liner? Great job; thanks for posting.
I think it will work, I use regular car soap
Looks like a nice cover! Would have liked to see you take it out in the rain to test how leakproof it is? Can you let us know if you have any issues with the cover leaking water into the bed at any of the joints/seams?
It rained the day I installed it. Check out my Instagram. I shared a picture post-storm
My Lomax is 99% water proof
Same here
How secure do you feel this is? Would it be difficult to open it with say a close hanger snagging the cord?
If someone knows where to place the hanger they may be able to open the cover. It takes quite a bit of force though so not too sure a normal hanger is enough. Most tri-folds are prone to this issue.
Do you think that cover could fit with an armordillo cr1 chase rack sports bar? Great videos.
I think it will but I would check with Armordillo on the overall width to make sure it clears the tonneau
Dude, my wife hates when I watch your videos. I think I know my next purchase
Do it!
How well have you liked this. Has it held up well? Would you buy same one today?
Holding up great, current has 2” of frozen snow on top of it so I think it’s holding up well LOL.
Would totally buy again, the finish is my favorite part.
@@WaterFowler41 good news. I'm in Northern Michigan. Understand the snow ice thing. It looks great.
Hey Not liking the way it straps to the side rails when totally open then those anchor arm supports to roof don’t look it would hold on too long as headwinds driving at speed limits above 25.
I’ve driving a few hundred miles with the tonneau open while carrying a kayak on my rack and a truck bed full of stuff, never had a single issue
Beautiful truck man, I’m considering getting a lomax as well, another video i saw it seemed like the last pannel was flexible enough to easily lift in the middle with your hands enough to see the pull cable. Thoughts? I know a thief will get in if he wants to but i wouldn’t want it that easy either.
Like pretty much ever hard tonneau if you pull the last panel up hard enough, you’re getting in. The lomax has some flex but I haven’t seen a hard tonneau that doesn’t.
@@WaterFowler41 got it thanks for getting back to me
So can you drive down the highway at 60mph with that cover all the way up?
Yep
Very nice
Thanks
I love all the concerned about “drag” comments. 😂. It’s a pickup going down the road, not a supersonic reconnaissance aircraft.
Any cons to this tonneau since you’ve purchased it?
Nope absolutely love it!
They fix the seam problem. Are your seams in the folds leaking or wripped yet
My seams are perfect and haven’t had any leaking
I feel like the seams at the folds iare going to fail no matter what over time
Do you think this is a better cover than the Undercover Armor Flex?
I’ve never used the armor flex so can’t really opine on it but I love this cover and think it will outlast my truck!
@@WaterFowler41 thanks for the reply. I have a 2019 Laramie and am looking for a good hard cover as well as kayak rack and I like your setup. Thanks.
Yeah you can’t go wrong with this tonneau/rack combo. The pro series rack is super light so when you don’t need it, it’s very easy to remove from the truck.
Sticks way up to high to make drag……plus blocks the back window from seeing what you’re hauling………Tri-fold from Mopar is the way to go….very light…so no added weight to waste gas….folds up easy and if you need the entire bed comes off in mins……
If I’m hauling anything that requires the whole bed (our 4 wheelers, furniture, etc.) aerodynamics are kind of a moot point, wouldn’t you think?
Like I mentioned in the video I like having the ability once we get to our destination to easily drop the tonneau and have cover and a dry bed. With how much stuff we bring with us, I don’t have room for a tonneau cover.
