    Hey Everyone-

    Just bought a new Tundra. I want to buy a matte black low profile hard cover but don’t know what it means by w or w/o rails. Which will fit the crew max shirt bed the best. Curious about all y’all experiences and recommendations. Appreciate the help!

    do you have oem toyota bed rails ? post a picture of the bed.

    if you have rails, they have clamps that mount on them.

    see video below, you can see the bed rails with the shiny clamps to mount the cover.

    I really like my Bak Revolver X2. Its a hard roll up cover.

    W/ rails means you have the factory Toyota bed rails already installed. Check to see if you have them around the top of the bed sides, its likely you do.

    I have a lowmax and love it, exactly what you're looking for. You truck should have the rails in the bed so you order "with rails"

    Thanks for the responses! There is a pic of the bed. I assumed that was the rail system. I’ve been looking at the Bak Revovler and Gator, never heard of low max, will have to check it out.

    I really like my Peragon Tonneau cover. There are a couple of YouTubers who have coupon codes, I paid just over $900 for mine, with the platinum package. I like how it folds inside the bed and you can also remove it. Feels like it's built pretty good.

    I have the BAK revolver X4 Roll-up tonneau cover and I love it. It rolls up and does not block the back window when not using it. Has metal slats so it is hard when covered. Manufacturers website shows 2 people sitting on it as well...

    A buddy and I installed and it was pretty easy, didn't take too long.

    I got a 2015 but assuming it hasn't changed much for the 2020.

    I used my rail system and mounted my Peragon to that. There was a fellow member who has a YouTube video on what he did. It works great!!

    Found the video..

    The peragons look nice, saw that online and thought it was a retractable. The diamondback looks badass but I like the low profile ones. Bak,MX4, gator....so many to choose from. I’m looking in the $500-$1000 range. Just want that factory look, matte black but love the diamond plate black

    I personally like the gator, I had one on my other truck but would not fit the tundra so I had to sell it because of the rail system.I am looking at purchasing one here in the future before the family beach trip. I do not think you can go wrong with any of the ones that you are looking at.

    I also have the MX4 on my 2019 crewmax. I don’t have the bed rails, but that is a selectable thru Bakflip. I couldn’t recommend this any more, I love it.

    Yes, order with rails, unless you want to remove your rails. My opinion, keep the rails!

    These are the 4 I’ve narrowed it down to. Also just installed EGR Matte Black in channel window deflectors and they look great, fit perfect.

    Thanks! That’s looks pretty sweet. Really low profile. That’s what I’m looking for.

    Super low and almost water tight. When its rolled up you lose a little bed space but I don't care lol. My buddy had 2 on 2 trucks and wouldn't shut up about it. I bit the bullet and its by far the best cover I have had. Don't get the x4 which is matte finish, lots of weird little issues with it. Go to auto anything dot com and haggle with a live agent and you'll get the best deal.
