    Alright so I'm in a predicament. I have a 2nd Gen Taco 2014 with a longbed.
    I have a 12'' toolbox in it that I'd like to keep, I've been searching high and low for a cover that would fit over the rest of the bed. I have 5'2" left to cover in the bed, since I live in Northern Minnesota this is crucial because of the SNOW...(as seen in pictures)
    I know that the Extang from Tonneau exist but it is only good for 18"-20" toolboxes
    Really I'm just looking for cover dimensions that work. None of the websites selling covers really provide that info and I'm wondering if anyone here can help me.

    Pictures provided open to suggestions (toolbox can be raised a few inches but is as far back as it can be without the lid rubbing on rear window)
    Thanks!

    As many as I can fabricate
    I'd look into a contractors cap. Whatever cover you find is going to be expensive to save a $199 tool box. Just sayin.

    Maybe make a 6” filler strip to fill in gap between box and shorter bed cover

    The strip could rest on the rail for the tie downs
