I installed the GatorTrax retractable cover on our 2020 GMC 3500HD standard bed. Very similar to Larry’s. Main difference is it doesn’t use the strap and it can be locked in any position. When you get into this price range I think most all covers are of decent quality.
I wish I had looked at the gator trac more closely before o made my decision, being able to lock in any position is a huge benefit. I got decision fatigue and ended up with the roll n lock because of the low profile. Thanks for you input, hopefully other people will give the gator trax a look. Larry
I like its sleek look. It's also far more weather resistant than the one that came with my truck. How cool to have the custom "second" locking" position. Nice job, Larry, and what a great father's day gift with the install. Very good video. Thanks for sharing.
Hey Bob. We timed it perfectly since we hope to leave Florida soon. The boys were a lot of help. Larry definitely couldn’t do it alone. There was no video Install and mid line this so he made one 🤣. Thanks for coming by. Alice
Thank you for the great instructional video. I just bought a 2020 Dodge Ram 3500 and thanks to this video just ordered one of these. I will use this video to help do the install myself as well.
Timothy, will you be leaving the cover partially open when driving? We do when pulling the fifth wheel. We have lost a couple of bin covers. Plus the strap to open and close the cover can be annoying. FYI. Hope your install goes well. Alice
Downsizing Makes Cents Hello Alice, yes I really like the idea of having it half closed while hooked up and traveling. I will keep the lid thing in mind I think I will carry mostly tools in the Dewalt Tool boxes I have so those should ride alright. Might have to rig something I guess when it comes to the strap 🤔
I think I looked at every possible brand and cover before I ended up buying my soft trifold cover. No regrets so far. There is no perfect cover and every one or type has their cons. My last truck I had a roll up but with the new truck I wanted something that did not intrude into the bed that may interfere with the pin box (had that issue with our last truck and fifthwheel) or robbed space above the bed rails and that the plus of a folding cover - no rails to interfere. There are workarounds for not seeing the hitch with a trifold such as adding a couple center marks on the cover and lining it up with the hitch or a hitch mirror on your fifthwheel.
I agree I could have worked around the hitch viewing problem, great idea about making a mark to line up, I really wanted a bakfkip mx4, thanks for your input from your experience. Larry
Great video! I was about to buy a BAK rolling cover for my Chevy 3500, but when I watched your video I realized that it would block my view when hooking up to my Montana 5th wheel. So many different cover options available, however I really like the Rock n lock unit you installed, so I will look at ordering one to delivery in Canada. As an RV DIY'er myself, I have subscribed to your channel as I am sure there is a treasure trove of goodies for me to review. Thanks again. 👍
🤗 We appreciate it. And if you have any questions, feel free to message on Facebook or Instagram. Or you can email us. Larry definitely loves DIYs. We have many. Unfortunately, he’s slowed down a bit because he was recently diagnosed with a rare Neuro disease. He’s getting better with treatments. But we are way behind on videos. So appreciate every watch, comment and of course subscribers 🤗
@@DownsizingMakesCents All the best, as my mother in law tells me, “don’t get old”. I agree with that! FYI, I ended up buying a soft roll up with a heavy duty canvas cover. Thanks again, I am looking forward to seeing more of your posted videos.
Great video I have a rollin lock on Ford F-250 and it is great I pull a travel trailer when not camping I keep some ladders and tools for my business it’s does double duty 👍
Larry loves being able to lock up his tools and get weight off the RV. Sometimes the drain tube gets blocked so water fills up in the canister. Plus the strap to pull the cover closed can get stuck. Hope this helps. Alice
This looks really cool and when I get another truck I want one even if I am not towing a rig. lol. I just like this. I can see so many uses ever after rving. Well now even got the kids in the video. Well done. Dang it I want a drimel tool. You have all the good stuff. Love the cutouts with Alice. That is to funny. Well I see Larry sleep on the couch for the night. (Mr. Beast) lol You kill this diy stuff. Great step by step on showing how to do this.
William. Yeah. We are looking forward to using the truck for more than towing. You got get those kids to pay some back for all the years we helped them 🤣. Larry is pretty good with this DIY. Not good with the wife. Couch tonight. Talk soon. Alice
Nice review, although, we pull a travel trailer and have a truck cap. Great research and awesome how to instructions. AND, I love how it withstands the beastly weight. You were nice to let her out. Thanks again.
Vincent, hi. I never thought of that about the cold. But I think you could jerk on the strap and that might get snow off. It was as 1400 just for the cover. We saved about 400 by installing ourselves. Thanks for another great visit. You stay safe too. Alice
Hey. Yes. Fifth wheel does have to be considered 😅. Thanks for making it until the end. We were thinking of making one of them the hook 🤔 Keep safe. Alice
Hi. Larry likes to mod about everything 🤣. He’s got an inventor’s mind. Larry did a lot of research and truly felt this was the best one for us. Good luck. Take care. Alice
Believe it or not, our Ram is the first truck we have ever owned 🤣. Boy did Larry do a lot of research before buying it. But Larry wishes he bought the ReTrax Pro instead. Maybe we will change it in the future. Happy Camping, Alice
@@DownsizingMakesCents Can you share why Larry would prefer the Retrax Pro? We are looking at both the Retrax and the Roll N Lock for our new Ram 3500, and we're leaning towards the Roll N Lock. One thing about the Retrax Pro is it doesn't have a fully enclosed housing where the cover rolls up. So if there is water on top of the bed cover when you roll it up, water will get inside the truck bed. The rails of the Retrax Pro also stick up higher than the Roll N Lock. Do you have plenty of clearance between the pin box and the side rails when you are making sharp turns? I've seen some where the pin box hits the side rail. Thank you for the great video - there was a lot of thought put into it.
@@kims782 He gets really frustrated with the strap of all things. He keeps trying different ways to keep it from flapping or getting caught because we tow with the cover over the bed if the truck up to the hitch. But you are right about the water issue with the ReTrax- he figures he’d have to be creative to fix that. That’s the only complaint I e heard from him. Alice
I did on my 2019 f350 and the install was a piece of cake. It was this vid that made my decision but I didn’t have to drill anything. This cover is perfect and the install was the easiest I have ever experienced.
Hey. Larry likes to be thorough and show everything he thinks people need to see. He couldn’t find a video like this out there so he made one. Thanks for coming by. Alice

I'm surprised none of these cover manufacturers haven't designed a cover yet that encompasses the 5th wheel hitch! so all that is exposed is the 5th wheel plate.
That would be really interesting if someone did that, but since the fifth wheel actually does cover the back half of the truck bed when towing, its not really necessary, I keep all the stuff that can fly our or i dont want to get wet under the front half under the cover. The bins in the back are covered and i never get water in them. Larry
Yes. We hav so much more storage. But it is taking weight off the RV which we needed since we just bought lithium batteries. Hope you truck cover works well for you. Alice.
I really appreciate your video. I can't tell you how long it took to find someone to explain how it's supposed to operate. I was curious how to get the cover to stop on the partial stops when pulling it closed. I had no idea, I just wasn't letting mine retract all the way. Nobody else explains this feature at all! Mine doesn't retract very fast, I'm wondering if there's an adjustment I could make. Anyway, thanks again. Safe travels!
The key to roll n lock is use the 303 lube spray often, and make sure you spray teh rails then wipe them, keeps the cover sliding well for us even after 4 years. Larry
@@DownsizingMakesCents Great advice. I had it installed at the dealership and had to go back once because they didn't do it correctly, so maybe they didn't apply enough 303. In fact, I had no idea what the bottle of 303 was, or that it came with my cover. It was just inside my truck, and I thought one of the techs left it behind. Lol! Do you have a video showing how to apply the 303? Does any lube solution work, like WD-40 silicone? Thank you.
@@DownsizingMakesCents Thanks for the invite, I just upgraded form a Ram big horn 2500 to a Big Horn 3500 so that we could get a Toy Hauler with a side Patio. Having lived on Submarines half my life I want all the storage options I can get and utilize. Thanks again.
Wow nice video you guys!! How do you like you Solitude?? Love your tonneau cover, we have a roll up tonneau that does the job. Would love to upgrade sometime soon, you did a great review of this one and it looks nice! We also live in an RV full time in a Solitude S- Class! We also started an RV channel as well!!! You guys have our support in your journey, we are excited to check out your other videos #subscribed
We looked at the S-class. I really liked it. If only GD would make a 29’ Solitude. We could downsize in a year or two- Larry just finished installing solar. He’s not ready to do it again 🤣. He loves his truck bed cover. Now heavy tools are safe in the truck and Barf our RV lost weight but gained it back with the lithium batteries. Good luck with your channel. Alice
haha totally understand! Yes that tonneau cover is super nice! Thank you so much for the support! It means the world to us ❤️Stay safe and happy trails you guys!
If your Roll-N-Lock is just in front of your 5th wheel when you travel, how do you release the cover so it rolls back from mid-position so you have access to the items behind the cab without un-hitching from the RV? How much of the bed does the roll-up box take away from the bed length?
Just turn the knob to release the cover lock, slides back into the canister. The canister takes up about a foot, but there is space under for my bins. Larry
I just picked up my F-350 swd and deciding between a toolbox plus bed cover similar to changing lanes or a cover like yours that is more secure. How is your cover working? Thanks! We like watching your channel. You guys have great information, Were hitting the road in October. We just need to find the right fifth wheel for us!
I love my roll n lock, the only thing I don’t like about it is the strap but I think I have a solution that works for me now, I have it attached to an elastic band that attaches to the back of the bed. If I had to do it again I would probably take a really good look at the Retrax pro instead of the roll n lock, it does not have the stupid strap. Congrats on your f350, an awesome truck, Larry
would i be able to fix a tool chest under this cover if the chest sits forward a few inches? i currently have a cover on my now but it rolls up. I also have a back rack with spacers.
There are a couple of ways to accommodate a tool chest with this cover, I have clearance under the cover to fit a bunch of plastic containers with supplies. I will probably do a Roll n lock follow up video on over one year use. Larry
Thanks for the video! Was just curious, with your 5th wheel, does your pin box ever come close to hitting the rails when making tight turns? Looks like the rails hang into the bed a few inches. Curious on the clearance between them and the pin box.
We have about 5 inches of clearance between the bed rail and the fifth wheel. Sometimes on tight turns over humps or dips in the road it gets close but has never hit. I really need to lower my pin box so the RV is more level when traveliing, but i dont lower it because i like the extra space between the bed rail and the RV. The real test will be when we start adventuring off-road more out west over hilly terrain. Larry
question, since you had this RL for awhile now, are you still happy with it? I heard they rattle at high speeds. do you have that issue? I'm looking at the Roll N Lock A series. Thank you! Great Video..
I agree Scott, but it was the only solution i could find that didn’t block my view, worked with a 5th wheel hitch, kept our stuff secure and had a very low profile. Larry
