Kind of late posting this but I've been busy. I finally round filed the old aluminum canopy and got a Lund Roll Up Tonneau Cover. Works excellent. Pulls rather snug and doesn't flap much and kept my dry wall dry.

I like it!

Any idea whether this will have any effect on MPGs?

I too have been looking at the same idea. I removed my shell and my recent photos do not reveal this change but, I need to do something. Great addition Mike.

On ours, no MPG difference at least that I noticed.  Under the cover to bed is 19 inches on mine.  Never had any problems with people being snoopy looking underneath.  We usually go south in winter.  Only thing that we had to lay on its side, so cover would close was propane BBQ bottle.

 

Made a few changes to mine.  See pic

By the time I got home crawling around in the snow weather and poor road conditions I still kept close to 22 MPG. So it's not a fair trip number being I was packing 14 sheets of drywall and other things in the bed of the truck.

I'm just curious :thumbup2: 

I notice slightly higher mileage with my topper on, so I was wondering how you think it'll affect yours.

Hard to judge being I came down Boise, ID empty and return home loaded with 14 sheets of drywall. Let's just say that holding 20's for MPG in the dead of winter with temps as low as 19*F and still holding up the MPG's. More time to judge the tonneau cover but with my canopy it did awesome but I never ran the Quadzilla Adrenaline and my old canopy. So hard to judge the new tonneau cover and the Quadzilla Adrenaline combo.

Any particular product you like to clean and protect the cover with.  I use "protect all".  But not real happy with results.
