I noticed with mine that 1 time I drove without the cover on it & it samed to be
bouncing around alot especially at highway speeds.
It seems O.K. with the top up as far as not moving too much.
I'll have to get someone to follow behind & see how much the top flops around.
That won't be till next spring though. Hope everyone fairs out O.K. with their top issues.

Look thru the "does your top have rub marks" thread, SUX2BU and i narrowed it down pretty well using lotion to mark the area when the top is cycled. Its compressing against a rear side rail, the rectangular indentation/mark is actually from the edge of the rail. The pictures illustrate it perfectly.
As for the cover/tanneau ; its only standard on 2 LT and 2 SS- therefore I have to assume GM believes it not to be a necessity for driving. I actually found my marks are worse with it on, as it seems to compress the top even more causing more contact between the too and offending rail. I've been Using masking tape on the top when the covers on, and.nothing for short trips which don't seem ti wear as badly.
