    Had my tri-fold cover for about 6 years now. It allows almost full access to the bed when completely propped up, takes up about 2-3 inches of trunk space when you try to put large items in. Two out of the three locking latches has completely broke off since. A bit of water still gets into the truck but luckily the grooves in the bed keeps most things dry. The sticks that prop up and hold the lid have completely broken off. The lid keeps prying eyes/hands from looking into the bed but I never keep anything in there for long. It protects my snowboard and boots from the elements and is nice for fishing and camping. Build quality is decent but some parts are definitely cheap and prone to breaking with heavy use. If it was $500 I would definitely buy it again but I paid over $900 for mine in 2016. I would buy a used one or maybe find a heavy duty cap in the future.

    Had mine installed about 6 months ago on my AC Cab so it's not been that long. But I do like it, we hardly
    get any rain out here in AZ and I could care less about a bit that might get through anyway.

    Real nice to get out, grab camera equipment and have a place to set it.

    Have on more than one occasion flipped it, got into the truck bed and setup a tripod to 'get-the-shot'.

    I never wanted it but the wife insisted, I love it now, and of course she's always right.
