Bed cap or roof rack

I currently have a bed cover oh my 2019 truck. I’m going to need more room to carry stuff in the near future. Would like to keep them dry. I’ve debated a roof rack with my current setup and could strap stuff that can get wet on it while keeping my cover. I’ve also considered a cap that allows me to stack stuff up in the bed under the cap. Thoughts and suggestions?

 

I absolutely love my softopper. Not as secure as a hardcap, but it's great for keeping stuff dry. As for racks, I really like my Martin Offroad roof rack. It's essentially the same as a Prinsu but a couple hundred dollars cheaper.

 

I'm not a big fan of toppers. However my last truck had one and I couldn't part with it because it was too practical. The added security was nice as well. That truck also had a 6' bed and it was a step-ups topper so there was more vertical room.

 

I had a Leer mid-rise cap on my '06 Taco. My new '21 Taco has the same.
Both were not 100% watertight (more like 95-98%) yet I've never considered anything else for reasonably dry storage space and content security.

 

Is it the same cap you had on your '06? I am trying to shop for a used topper and I am having a hard time figuring out what will fit and what wont.

 

I have a diamondback but now really want an rsi cap for practicality purposes, more room etc. Choose wisely lol

 

I've heard the more weight you can add to the bed the better. Smooth out some of that rear-end bounce.

 

It is not. The cap from the '06 will not fit on a '21. Both long beds BTW.

 

Awesome!! Thanks so much!
