bed cover

Is it easy to take the cover on and off the truck?

Takes about 5 minutes.

Took me about 20 mins to install mine and would be even easier to take off.

The beautiful thing about the BakFlip is that you never have to take it off.

Bakflip F1 all the way.
Also, the manufacturer recommends you remove the cover itself (not the rails) if you do any really serious off-roading. Takes about ten minutes, tops.

Interesting. I wonder what the reason for that would be.

I didn't see anything in their literature about taking it off for serious off-roading when I bought mine...BakFlip F1 : BakFlip.com | BAK Chat

I remember reading on the Z where a member tore his up from doing some serious off roading. It must flex and bounce around too much. It would only take a few mins to take it off just fold it back and take out the couple screws. slide it in the back seat then reinstall it when you are on your way home.

I saw that too and I contacted the manufacturer before buying mine and they said that it's a good idea to remove it during extreme wheeling. Probably has to do with bed flex. It's no big deal because it's very simple to remove.

Did you install the Bakflip yourself and if so how easy or difficult was it to install.
