    I'm tired of replacing my 3 panel bed cover so I replaced with the Diamondback TU14TKC-HD-DX This better be the last time.

    Looks great. Definitely an option I have been considering.

    Did you have any issues getting the front (against window) to be level with the rest of it? Mine seems to be slightly elevated.

    They now have a second seal by 3M that sticks on the front of the bed. No more gaps.

    I just got the undercover flex , has slight leak last rainfall. Hopefully it settles on the truck and last me a few years . Hindsight is 2020 , wish I would have waited and got me the Diamondback.

    I’m about to purchase a diamondback, just can’t decide if HD is worth it over SE?

    What I had a problem calculating was the “remaining payload” weight I had left after installing the Diamondback. Could I carry even a fraction of the rating of the HD vs theSE?

    The day will come ..... I should have spent the $550 and bought the HD.

    I got the SE with extra cleats knowing that I would never put my Yamaha Grizzly up top. I still pull it in a small trailer. I also knew that i would most likely never strap on enough to exceed the 400 lb limit of the SE. I hope so anyway.

    I have a Diamondback on my work vehicle. Great addition, the only drawback is it sucks dust into the bed like a Hoover vacuum. I've weather-stripped the tailgate, which helped but I still have to hose it out fairly often.
