I've used it once and got rained on with no leaks.
Takes only a few minutes to set up, even with the extra step of adding the poles.
If you want something that is an exact fit this may not be right for you, but there was no other option for my truck that I could find.
Another complaint from others was that there were gaps at the bottom that could let insects in. I used a couple of towels. Not sure it that, or the Citronella spray kept them out.

February 2024 Update: after 8 years the DAC Truck Tent still works like a champ. Zippers flow freely with no hangups. The tent still holds it's shape and the bungees are good. I have an old salvaged aluminum truck topper so I cut pool noodles to fit across the edge & corners of the topper door to prevent poking holes in the fabric. There is only one spot on the driver's side back panel which has rubbed through from catching the window edge when I wasn't paying attention. I continue to recommend this product to others.
