    Thanks for the heads up! Put my interest in but if I can move faster then I will purchase an F1 independantly of the group buy. Sometimes the group buys take a little more time.

    Everett, That was on my list but after a self debate I like the 4 panel model(Bakflip/Gator) better than the 3 panel model(Undercover). Good news is that Undercover has a listing of their 1 pc Tonneau's for the 2016 model year in most of the standard colors.

    Just ordered an Extang Trifecta Soft Tonneau for my Tacoma. My dad has one on his Silverado, works perfectly and easily removed.

    Was $439 on AutoAnything, found it for $365.93 on Amazon through a different seller I've never heard of. Being paranoid and not trusting some other seller, I had AutoAnything price match, and they best Amazon's price by $1! Lol. I'm weird but whatever haha.

    Anyone have any updates on the fold-a-cover G4 Elite availability? Last I heard was that it should be out by the end of the year.

    Suppose good things are worth waiting for... really like the flush look. Will send BAKFlip an email, maybe that help motivate them ;-)

    I've been researching the crap out of bed covers for my 2016 Toyota Tacoma double cab short bed. I was really wanting a bed cover/bed rack combo. BakFlip CS (rack/cover combo) is not going to be made for the 2016 Tacoma, according to Bak. I think what I've decided to buy is the Truxedo Titanium. It's a hard roll up. According to Truxedo, it actually mounts to the existing bed rails whereas the Bak Revolver X2 requires you to remove the factory side rails and mount them lower on new mounts. This will cause problems with bed racks like Voodoo makes http://www.kbvoodoo.com/shop/toyota...-use-with-tonneau-covers-fits-years-2005-2016. With the Truxedo Titanium, I will be able to keep the factory rails and should be able to use the bed racks as well. Here is the link for the Titanium. http://www.truxedo.com/titanium/land.php Hope this helps some people out and I'd appreciate any advice. Thanks

    Can tuxido be partially rolled OR is it full roll on and roll off ? looks simplest installation so far. Also is the factory rail still usable for tie downs with cover rolled all the way ?

    I imagine it can be partially rolled if you secure it although not sure if from the factory it is "meant" to be done. It's just a roll though so you can modify it to your needs by adding a couple of straps, etc. According to them, it attaches to the factory rail with a few brackets which would mean the rest of the rail is still usable. So like I was saying, should be able to use bed racks, tie downs, etc still that utilize the factory rail.
