Hi Roger!
For a soft roll-up style tonneau cover that fits your 2026 Chevy Silverado 1500 RST Crew Cab, I recommend one of the covers I have below. I listed the 5-3/4' and 6-1/2' bed sizes as I'm still of the opinion that anything under 8' is a short bed, so I wanted to make sure I had both options covered.
5-3/4 Foot Bed:
etrailer Soft Tonneau Cover - Roll-Up - Vinyl and Aluminum # e32DR
6-1/2 Foot Bed:
etrailer Soft Tonneau Cover - Roll-Up - Vinyl and Aluminum # e56RV
If we had an option for my 2016 Silverado 1500, this is what I would go with. The price is really hard to beat and the lifetime warranty is very nice to have.
What are you going to be keeping in your bed? I tend to just have some survival type gear as you never know what can happen out on the road.

Hey Roger, how did the soft roll-up tonneau cover work out on your Silverado 1500? Did the fit match your bed size the way you expected? Your update could make it easier for the next person choosing between those two bed lengths.
