I looked at the boxbuddy, problem is I have a low profile tool box. I dont think any of them will work with my box because the latches are below the top of the bed. Unless someone makes one that the front folds up.

If I move the cover back to where it barely catches the tailgate then there is a small gap at the front of the bed. I have been talking with the factory about the issue and they have been very helpful with trying to figure out why it is short. I was wandering if anybody out there has the Trifecta and has the same problem or does yours cover and seal both ends of the bed very good.

Thanks, Greg

All I can say is if you dought the fit then check it out closely. I kept emailing the rep at Extang and I understand that it is hard to see what a customer sees from a bunch of pictures or descriptions. So, I went back to the dealer where I bought it and after they checked it they found that my claims were true. They ended up replacing the one that I have with another one from their stock and low and behold it was about 1 1/2 to 2" longer than the one I had originally. Now I see why you guys really love this cover, it fits GREAT now and looks GREAT as well. I am truely glad that I stuck with this cover and didn't switch to another brand. I know this is a long post but I thought that I should explain the situation after it was resolved, that seems to never happen with ALOT of threads.

Thanks to the Mike at Extang for being patient with all the emails and pics.
Thanks to the guys at Anchor Sales in Salem Va. for their GREAT service.

Anyone know the width difference between the 97-2003 vs the 2004-2008? looking at real good deal on a tri fold cover but all they have is one for a 2004-2008. Any help would be appreciated thanks

Glad to hear that they got it figured out for you Gcozmo. I love the thing and mine is almost a year old, so I have experienced the 4 seasons of Chicago weather. Good luck!
