    Greetings everyone! I was looking for a tonneau cover and ran across very helpful reviews on the Tundra forum so I thought I would join the community. I've been a BIG Toyota fan for years having a FJ Cruiser, 2016 Off Road Tacoma, and now the Tundra. Wasn't planning on buying a Tundra at this moment but with the new model coming in 2022 , I figured it was now or never if I wanted the V8 engine.

    The Tundra I ended up buying was for sale locally so I managed to take it for a test drive, along with another XP model at the same dealership. It gave me a good opportunity to compare the two models (e.g., suspension and handling).
    Just absolutely love this Truck and spent the first day washing, waxing, etc. Posted a few pictures below. My first modification/addition is a Diamondback SE Tonneau and a set of Covercraft Endura Precision Fit Custom Seat Covers! :thumbsup:

    Terrific color! :thumbsup: I had the same color on my 2016 Off-Road Tacoma. I like the dark look but not as challenging to keep as a black truck.

    It's like looking in a mirror!

    Welcome from Winston Salem!
    Let us know how you like the Diamondback cover. As soon as my wife tells me to go spend some money since I haven't done any mods in a while that's the direction I am trying to go.

    Thanks brother! Will post pictures of the cover once it arrives... they are giving me a date of March 14th for a ship date. I read a few reviews on the forum, youtube vids, etc. and this was the tonneau recommended for a host of reasons. The only down side is that it was expensive but as one forum member said "buy once, cry once!"
