    Insert every known expletive here....

    It's been really windy here today and I just went out to grab something from the truck and found my tonneau cover that I didn't latch the tailgate end of flipped up against my cab. So Make sure your solid tonneau cover is latched down when it's windy...

    Luckily it didn't break the glass.

    Funny thing is I was inside working on our renovation and heard it. I thought to myself I wonder what the hell that was and continued on painting.

    On a good note my floors came out awesome. IMG_6063.jpg

    Wow, I'm guessing your cover is a tri-fold ... Doesn't each section have latches? That's some scary sh*t, sorry it happened.

    On a side note, your floors do look great!

    That's wild that it got picked up and rolled. The impact is also crazy.

    Now she's got like a Joker smile scar going on...

    That totally sucks. Good reminder to double check everything before a storm hits. You did a great job on the floors. Are you thinking about fixing those dents?

    Yeah, I will take it over to my buddies body shop this week and get a quote.

    My tonneau cover is an extang solid fold. And I gotta say the cover held up. Not a scratch on it.

    I would burn the tonneau out of spite and once my balls sank out of my throat, I would have the dents fixed- and after about 12 stiff drinks!

    I ended up leaving the dents, it was going to be over a grand to pop the dents and have it painted. I just had the body shop clean up the chipped paint and touch it up for $65.00
