Pace Edwards KMDA24A55 UltraGroove Metal Tonneau Cover Kit Fits 19-23 1500

I purchased the Pace Edwards UltraGrove Metal cover. The fit was good and was a very easy install. One thing that could be improved is the instructions. It was a little hard to follow. Ended up looking up a YouTube video to get a better understanding of how to install. Overall was a pretty easy install. Real truck should make a video of brand specific installs for absolute ease of install. I would definitely buy another for other trucks I own.

This is my third Pace Edwards retractable cover. I prefer this new locking system that doesn't require a key, but remains secure when the tailgate is locked.

The cover is made of strong components and looks great once installed. All of the functionality advertised is spot on. Have not put on my Yakima system yet, but it looks straightforward and am confident it will work out well based on the construction. The installation instructions that came with the product are terrible. Tasks are bunched together in paragraphs with references to Figures that are out of order and not clear. Watch the numerous YouTube install videos to save yourself time and frustration. Hopefully, PE will take the time to improve the instructions!

Great product, does exactly what I was looking for. Solid quality. Operates perfectly! I'm fairly handy but found the installation instructions to be lacking. They could be better. The on-line installation video was very helpful. (Would suggest doing videos on other types of vehicles, without short cuts, and paying more attention to potential problem areas) Installation videos are a must watch. More attention and explanations could be paid concerning the spacers on the side rail clamps (I had to remove the mfgr. installed clamp spacers before the rails would fit properly - cost me a lot of time!!). Furthermore, I had difficulty installing the clamps because the pre-installed set screws were installed too deep. Once I figured out the issue and backed out the set screws it went together easily (then I had to figure out the spacer problem). A better outline and description and photos the area where and how the rear rail seals meets the tailgate would be helpful. The kickstands located on the rear clamps - do not fit as outlined in the instructions or the video. My truck bed is different than the one on line. I'm not sure what these kickstands are for, they do not seem to fit my truck. I installed them, but they are just hanging there. We recently traveled from Texas to Utah with a bed full of camping gear. all out gear stayed safe and dry. It covers my 5th wheel entirely, with room to spare. Despite these installation issues, Great Product, I would highly recommend. Magnolia, Texas

Made the right choice with this Pace Edwards Ultra Groove Metal tonneau cover. Be sure to watch the installation video. Was fairly easy to install alone. Only challenge was getting the rails to slide under the canister tab. The RES rail T-slots really add to the usefulness of the system. We attach a Thule Bike Rack and the Utility Rack Rig (for our kayaks) often. The only time we've seen a very slight amount of moisture in the bed is when I go thru the high-power car wash. Everyone we've shown our tonneau cover system to wants one! If you're looking for a fully-featured retractable tonneau cover, with the ability of carry bikes and other cargo above it, get the Pace Edwards Ultra Groove. 2015 Ford F150 SuperCrew with short bed.

I chose this cover primarily because of the groove rails that can support accessories like ladder racks and paddle board racks. There isn't any other covers on the market that offer the same high quality appearance and functionality. Installation is a little tedious. The ancillary supports at the rear near the tailgate are useless. The universal fit and adjustment doesn't work with the ‘17-‘18 Superdutys. The water shedding tech works better than other retractable covers I own. But not better than an over the rail folding cover. Overall. I'm pleased with the appearance and functionality.

Great cover as far as construction goes but does allow more water into the bed of the truck than I'd like. Getting water in through the tailgate sides was expected but getting so much water in the bed from the front corners was unexpected. None of these types are weather tight but after researching I thought this one might have done better out of the box. I'll likely pull it off and see if I can seal up the corners better. Otherwise, it is a nice cover. Looks great and appears well made.

The thing is built well and looks good, but functionally, it has me frustrated. It's pretty noisy on rougher roads. I wish it had roller bearings and a way to close it without opening the tailgate, but still be secured by the tailgate lock and not need another key. I don't ever want a cover that relies on a strap again. That strap gets tangled on everything, and it's always either in the way, or out of reach because the Velcro got pulled off. The strap, as small as it seems, makes it difficult to use your truck bed as intended. The t slot rails are designed in a way that don't allow many t slot accessories to be easily inserted, they should have just had them open on both ends rather than just the cab ends . The rear drains have no factory holes to go into in my truck, and I'm not going to put permanent holes in my bed for something if I can't tell if I like it well enough to keep it. The abs cover for the canister seems like a cheap option on an expensive product. I'm not sure I would buy this again for my use case. This is the best tonneau cover I've owned, but it doesn't make it good. It's just the one I've hated the least of the six that I've used. They all have their compromises and are now so expensive that the compromises are becoming less forgivable.

I love this tonneau cover. But these were hands-down easily the worst set of assembly instructions I have ever encountered. My advice is to hang with it, make no sudden moves, and lower your expectations, until you get it installed. Then you'll be glad you did.

First, there were two(2) boxes shipped, they were delivered 3-4 days apart. Second, I paid for it to be professionally installed and they could not get it to retract, the return spring is not working.
