Hey, guys. It's Sara with americantrucks.com, and today we have a review and install of the Premier Soft Tri-Fold Tonneau Cover, fitting your '19 and newer Ram 1500 without the RamBox. This is perfect for the Ram owner who's looking for a budget-friendly way to protect their bed from the elements and wants a soft cover that folds away quickly and easily. This soft cover features a durable aluminum frame with a sleek black vinyl top. This tri-fold style tonneau cover features a quick clamp fastening system providing fast bed access and can be in the open or closed position while driving. This tonneau cover folds and unfolds in seconds and secures with a buckle and strap in the open position so that you can haul larger cargo. So, one thing to know with this cover as with any soft cover is that it's not gonna protect from theft as well as a hardcover wood, it's not gonna pass the knife test. But if you're looking for a quick and easy way to protect your bed from the elements, this is an excellent choice.So, as far as price goes, this one comes in at around $325, which is on the lower end price-wise when compared to other options. And for your money, you're getting a durable soft cover that opens and closes with ease, that's gonna get the job done of covering your bed without breaking the bank. So, I'm giving this install a one out of three wrenches on the difficulty meter. It features a direct clamp-on installation that can be done within 15 minutes. So, with that said, let's get into our install. All right, so the first step in your install, set the tonneau on top of your bed, make sure it's lined up with the bulkhead and it's lined up on each side. Next up, we're gonna go underneath and clamp it down. All right, so to clamp this down, you're just gonna grab this clip and pull down. We're gonna line up this opening with the edge of the bed. Once we have it in that opening, go ahead and twist this knob until it's nice and tight. Repeat that process on the other side. All right, now that our tonneau is clamped down, we're gonna unclip both sides. We're gonna fold our tonneau out.Once it's flat, we're gonna reach under and clamp the back section. Grab the clamp and pull it down. These are a little bit different from the front. What you're gonna do is you're gonna twist it to adjust it. So you'll twist it upwards so that it's getting a nice, firm grip on the edge of the bed. You can sort of measure where it should be. Once you feel like you've adjusted enough, go ahead and open up the clamp, grab the edge of the bed and clamp it down. Repeat that process on the other side. If you need to, you can always adjust it additionally. Make sure that you're grabbing a good section of the bed so it has a nice, tight seal. Okay, so once the tonneau is clamped down, you can close your tailgate. All right, so to operate this tonneau cover, you're gonna open your tailgate first. Undo each of the clamps at the back. You can secure your clamps in these clips up top here. Fold your tonneau out one section at a time. To fold it back out, undo the clips on each side. Fold it out one section at a time. And clamp it on both sides at the back. And finally, close your tailgate. And that is gonna do it for the review and install of this tonneau cover. And remember for all things Ram, keep it at americantrucks.com.
