    Relativey cheap at $229 on Amazon. Good reviews. Anyone have one? Are there better options in that price range?

    I have one and have been very happy with it! Easy to install and seems to be very good quality!

    Have the Tyger tri fold. It’s great. Over 2 years now. Some of the stitching has come undone near one of the folds. Hasn’t affected its performance in anyway. Figure for the price if I get five years out of it I’m happy.

    I would really like a color matched cap/shell someday.

    I know we all have trucks for a reason but does the cover actually provide better MPG?

    Mythbusters did a show and found that it doesn’t help. I think it helps but negligible. If anything I think it would make it more consistent.

    I had a Tyger tri fold (still have it for sale but shipping is pointlessly expensive) on my DC. I didn't use it every day but it was great, no issues. I'm not sure my hard tonneau is worth 3x the price...

    I have it now. Does the job it’s supposed to. Aesthetically I don’t like how it looks but I couldn’t spend $700+ on a tonneau cover so decided to get something which I couldn’t use and it’s been good so far.
