    I'm still a fan of my factory cover after almost 12500 miles and 9 months of owning the truck. No leaks and does what it is supposed to do.

    I have the one the one Toyota sells and it seems pretty water proof. Just drove it 3 hours in the rain it was completely dry inside.

    In Canada you can order the factory cover from the dealership after purchase. Expensive mind you

    I've got the factory one. It was on the truck when I got it. It looks nice, heavy and sturdy feeling. It also leaks down the sides every time it rains. I've adjusted everything I can. It will always leak though as Toyota claims the OEM cover isn't waterproof.

    We went with a G4 Elite. I'm not of fan of Tonneau covers as they don't provide the full benefits of a cap. However, it's my wife's truck and she wanted a cover. With that said, having front and back locking access is a nice perk. It's also kept everything dry so far, so I would have to say it's a nice upgrade.

    I just installed a gator tri-fold on my 2017 LB. I only installed it a few days ago, but we have had a couple storms and there's no leaking in the bed. Additionally, it was very easy to install and I received it 2 days after ordering it (Michigan to Ohio). Plus, it was one of the most affordable option I could find.

    Hey Zerors, I have been looking at the undercover elite for my long bed sport, it looks like a really nice hard cover. Do you have any pictures to share so we can see how it fits to the bed on the sides and back? I am wondering if it wraps over the sides and covers the top of the TRD Sport sticker on the bed?

    Installed a TruXPort TruXedo Tonneau cover this past weekend and absolutely loving it so far. Looks great. Mounts easy. Rolls up in seconds and leaves the whole bed usable. Came with all the weatherstripping needed. No water test yet but for the price and versatility just couldnt beat it. Lots of great reviews so we will see how my luck is after putting it through real life.

    I have the factory Tonneau and it works perfectly for me. Gets dusty sometimes on the top, but all I do is spray it down with a water hose or go through a car wash and all is well. Barely any leakage, if any at all.

    I got a Gator Trifold to get me by until I can afford a cap. It works great, it's cheap, stuff stays relatively dry on the inside. Good little setup.
