Yes, you can roll it up and secure the vinyl portion out of the way without removing the hardware.

Try heating up the cover in the sun a bit before attempting to stretch it onto the wheel. This worked pretty well for me. You could just set it on your dash and let the sun loosen it up a little. Then maybe stretch it over the wheel twisting it in a circular motion as you do. Hope this helped.

This cover sets on top of the bed side rails so if you have anything on the bed rails now you will have to remove it. This cover almost overhangs the truck bed so that if you have water on the cover it will run off on the outside of the truck. Hope this helps

No, there's no cover over the wheel. It's left open to be able to manipulate it.

I have only used it on the back of my 5th Wheel. I don't see why it wouldn't work on the back of my truck

Yes. First put the cover on the steering wheel. Then begin to wrap the plastic cord around it, I go counter clockwise leaving about an inch between wrappings. As you wrap pull the cord very tight. Then when you get to the end of the wheel (where you began) criss cross where you've done with the rest of the cord. Always pulling it as tight as you can get it. I love these covers because they make a good grip on the wheel and are warm on your hands in the winter.

Yes, as long as it is in the closed position! I have towed mine many times and it does fine, no problems whatsoever, just be sure to close it so it has support!

Currently I use the mat when not camping during winter months with my Dodge 3500. I did not want a cut a hole in it. I remove the mat when using my fifth wheel. I did have a Dodge 2500 where I cut the mat out for the fifth wheel rails. Never had a problem with the mat flying loose. I also removed this fifth wheel hitch during the winter months.

I don't think so. It will help but I think that water will still it the trailer being towed. After you install the fender you might went to customize a tire flap or mud flap. Enjoy your ride.

My generator has a wheel kit on it and is easy too move with cover on. Holes for handles would only let dust in.

No, but you can take the wheel off and reverse it for even wear if you desire.

You could, but there is no mechanism to hold it in place and it weighs enough to certainly damage your hood should it touch. It does have pins that come out very easily when you are done towing to get it out of the way, but then you have to have a place to put it, which could be another problem.

A locking tailgate would stop someone from unlatching the cover. If you have a fifth wheel tailgate, you could probably drill a hole through the latch mechanism when it is in the latched position so that you could put a bolt or lock through it but that would weaken the mechanism . I may be wrong but I don't think thieves would be real interested in the top itself anyway. It is bulky and would not bring much on the used market.

Yes you can. As a matter of fact we took the cover off of our wheel and the bike rack is mounted directly on the tire. Works great!

I have not used it in conjunction with towing. However I have noticed an increase in take off power and power when dropping into over drive. Try it, you will like it.

That is a safety feature. Do not remove it. Just lift it up when you want to shift into reverse. Gravity keeps it down to block accidental reversing which could run you over.

This is a really nice cover, but it is really big, at least for my 1987 Samurai. The sides extend all the way down to the ground and then some. I think this cover would not work well if you are putting on a vehicle while towing. Its going to blow off. My cover blows off all the time with the car just sitting in the driveway.
