    Hello all. Just added a 2021 Tacoma to my vehicles, keeping company for my 1969 FJ40 Land Cruiser and 1984 FJ60 Land Cruiser. Anyway, my brother-in-law has a 2013 Taco 6’ bed with a cap and he’s willing to give me the cap. Mine is also a 6’ bed so my question is will it fit? I’m assuming it will but I can’t find any bed dimension information on the net. I knew this would be a wealth of real world experience. Thanks for any thoughts and Merry Christmas to you all!

    It won't fit properly. Different bed/cab profiles/dimensions from the 2013 (2nd Gen) to your 2021 (3rd Gen).

    Didn't say it wouldn't fit. Said it might not fit properly.

    I'd set it on there and give it a look. It might be close enough that no one will notice. I've had caps made for a Chevy on a Dodge truck in the past and I could see minor issues, but unless I pointed it out to others no one else would ever notice.

    OK, I understand what you're saying. We'll be heading up there in March and we'll give her a look. Thanks!
