    Hey all,

    I've had by Tundra for about 3 years now, I'm just starting to give the old gal some much needed and deserved TLC. She's a 2014 SR5, 5.7L V8, completely stock with the standard 6.5 ft bed. I've used it for countless yard projects, dump runs, house remodels, kid hauling... everything. So convenient, wouldn't give it up for anything. Gonna drive it til the wheels fall off. Here's a list of stuff I've got so far:

    - New LED BeamTech headlights
    - Interior detail + new seat covers, front row and back
    - New Line-X spray on bed liner
    - New RCI Steel Skid Plate (with oil filter access, THANK GOD!)
    - Front bumper caps to black out the excess of chrome

    Next thing on the list is a nice bed cover. I live in Oregon where it rains 90% of the year, so this should probably have been higher on the list. lol. Won't fit in my damned early 80s garage either, so she lives in the driveway.

    I'm looking for something that will last a long ass time. Really like the retractable ones, although they're expensive they give you most usage of the bed. Roll ups aren't bad either, but I have some reservations about how long the canvas would actually last and how it would hold up to the sun. Also something that will keep the water out. I know that "no cover is waterproof", but something that would keep most of it out.

    Question is anyone have any covers they just have to rave about? Or something I should just absolutely avoid?

    There is no best cover. What is best for one person might not be best for another. On that note, I like my Truxedo Lo-Pro QT and the lifetime warranty is an added bonus,
