    Very happy to be able to join the forum! Pretty bare-bones SR5 Crewmax Cab 5.7l. Hoping to get a bed cover sometime soon. Any suggestions?

    Hot truck! For what it's worth, my BAK is rusting at the rivets and screws already - after only 3 months! Also, despite several adjustments, it leaks pretty bad. Much more than I thought it would. BAK is junk in my book.

    @alimbert My Rugged Cover II leaks a LITTLE right at where one of the seems are because the foam doesn't sit all the way down on the truck bed due to the design on the plastic. I will say I am not a fan of the latch down system it has because its basically a screw. You have to turn it one way when you unlatch it and turn it again to latch it... well the problem comes when you turn the latch to lock it back down and don't remember the way you turned it before your basically unscrewing or over tightening your cover. Yes its a tad bit more secure cause there is no draw string that can be pulled while the bed is closed but its just annoying...

    Enjoy! I went with the Extang Solid Fold 2.0. I didn't want to mess with low profile and likes the way it looked. Very personal decision though I think, haha. Congrats!

    Welcome from Canada. I have a soft trifold on my current Tundra and have no complaints. I do miss my sold trifold which was an Undercover Flex. Better design than the Bak flip in my opinion

    Welcome from VA. I went with the BakFlip MX4 and I love it. When I bought the truck, it had an Extang Trifecta on it. I like this cover much better. Its hard, texture goes perfectly with the OEM plastic on the bed rails, and fits the truck perfectly. I was going for a flush look and this was the cover for me though.
