    I have the Access LE and it's been a great cover. I think if I did it again, I'd get an Undercover, but that's just a personal preference thing, not a reflection on the Access' quality. You can't see the bars in mine at all.

    I've had an Access LiteRider on for a couple of years now.
    You still maintain the functionality of the bed rails and cleats (with the exception of the one along the cab.
    The support pipes that go across the bed are not visible at all.
    Still tight as a drum and I've never had to adjust the tension.

    I really don't have a problem with bumps or ridges with this cover and it rolls up into a neat package when I need to carry something.

    I really like the access, it seems like a very popular choice. But I think that I like the Truxport a little better.... Seems very sleek to me.

    Don't know if anyone has pictures that would be much appreciated.

    I recommend the truxedo lo pro qt also. Don't see the cross bars and still have the ability to use the rails and tie down cleats. Rolls up nice and neat.

    No major leaking. It's not 100% water tight so water only comes in at the end where it meets the tail gate

    Since we're talking roll-ups, I should at least mention the Roll-X

    It's a roll-up tonneau cover with an aluminum frame inside, so it's as sturdy and rigid as any solid cover, but without the drawback of being large and unwieldy to remove, and without blocking your entire back window like a fold-up. You also don't get the typical flapping sound you'd expect from a soft cover.

    I've never had any experience with them on a Tacoma, but my dad put one on his F-150 a few months ago and seems to love it so far. It's definitely on my list when I start looking.

    The only apparent drawback is the price ($849 on 20% sale right now). But if you can snag one on kijiji/craigslist/wherever you can probably get it for a much more reasonable price (Dad paid $450 for his).

    Also I found another thread here on the forums with a review and some photos.

    very pleased with mine - i prefer the Truxport as it mounts on top and does not interfere with use of the cleat rails
