    Hello all. Have been on Tacoma World quite a bit in the past to check out forums and pictures. Decided to participate a bit. Got a new 3rd gen back in April and planning on some mods and looking for ideas/ technical help. Truck is an 18 Sport. Love hunting and fishing trips so this new truck will be a tool for that more than anything. Just put in the Bakflip G2 bed cover. Gotta keep stuff dry. Other light mods and upgrades through the winter. Just enjoying the truck as is really. Toyota fan from die hard Detroit big 3 family. I was too until I saw how bulletproof these toyotas are. Mine hits the beaches from VA to the mountains of WV.

    Much better than the snap around one I used to have. I like the low profile look of this one. Will see how dry it keeps the bed after the 1st rain. I like the trifold, have access to the whole bed fairly easily. They are pricey though.

    Yeah they’re pretty pricey. While it doesn’t keep 100% of the rain out of the bed it does keep it mostly dry. The corners let in a few drops here and there in a heavy rain.

    Thanks for the heads up. I figured a little would get in, as long as it is not drenched across the whole bed I will be happy.
