I wanted to share my experience with this new bed cover I ordered

I just purchased a new 2025 Tundra limited, I wanted a cover for the bed so i started
looking at the options. I had a Retrax on my previous Tundra but the prices have gone
up to somewhere in the neighborhood or 2200.00 plus, that was more then I wanted to
spend at moment.
I look through forum on what others were doing now days and I ran across a post where
someone installed a syneticusa cover for around 800.00 they got off Amazon. I started
researching the brand and looking at what info was on the web and the price was in my
budget range. I reached out to syneticusa around 3pm Texas time on Monday June 30th,
I received a quote in 30 mins ( 949.00 plus taxes/ free shipping, total with tax was
1027.29), I paid and received a tracking # about an hour later.
Fast forward from Monday to Saturday ( Thursday was a Holiday July 4th) I received my
cover from California in less than a week.
Unboxed, looked over for any possible damage, found none, I laid out all parts then
went through the manual.
Assembled cover then installed on truck, it took about 3hrs from start to finished
with a couple of breaks. It went together with out any issues, my only constructive
complaint was the tools they provided, they use a tamper proof torx screw and the
wrench slowed things down, it would have been better and easier with a socket
(I did not have the correct size in my tool box) so I used tools furnished.
I have only had it installed a day, so far I am happy with my choice, compared
to the Retrax that I have owned, it seems to be built as good no less.

 

Very nice. I may have to look into this as well. Was thinking about a retrax pro xr, but pricey. Is this aluminum or polycarbonate? I don’t have bed track system. Can I still mount this?

 

Its aluminum, I ordered the one for the track, mine mounts to the "T" track. If you do not have the track, you can get the one that does not use the track

 

I had one on my tundra before I bought a camper shell. I liked it a lot, the only issue I had was with it sliding back after a few months. I just used the dry lubricant recommended for garage doors. My cover also had the rack. It was very solid. It was the manual version.

 

How much bed space does that take up near the cab?

I have a toolbox in there right now, but was thinking about a cover and this style no less.

 

This is from the Syneticusa website

 

Thank you! I went on the site and was looking but couldn't find it.

I did search by vehicle type, and unfortunately they do not sell for my truck. .

 

From the SyneticUSA home page, try the chat and ask if they have a cover for your truck. Can't hurt to try.

 

. Was actually getting ready to do that, just in case, LOL. I was thinking that they might and as you said, can't hurt. Thank you.

 

@billru did you get the MB or MR pro?

 

I got this one (????://???.syneticusa.com/collections/toyota-tundra/products/toyota-tundra-w-factory-deck-rails-hard-retractable-tonneau-cover), if you have questions or doubts on what to get, you can call SyneticUSA (I spoke with April and she got me all the correct inofrmation, her # if you would like to call is 415-651-5527, she is in California

 

I took a chance on this cover last December. I'm VERY pleased with it. At most, I get a few drops of water near the rear corners. Never enough to get anything wet. I works well, and I recently put their rack on which has been amazing for transporting our paddle boards. During install, I had a question and got a guy on the phone who went over things with me, including texting me pictures in real time. I'm very happy with this product, and for the price I don't think you can beat it.

 

I had a good experience with their Rep (April) also, I called and was put on hold I hung up as I did not want to wait, to my surprise I got called back about 10min later. I explained what I had (Tundra) and I needed help on the PN of what cover I was looking for, she gave me the info over the phone and ask for my email and she would send a quote, I ask how to order and she advise me to send her a txt and she would send me a payment link with the invoice. All went smooth even the shipping, I was happy with my transaction with her.
