    Can anyone recommend an affordable truck cover for 2001 Tacoma full cab? Should I trust the ones I see on ebay that show a different truck but say fit my model? pix to follow...

    Basically it doesn't have to be anything fancy but I am forced to park at home at a certain spot that is under telephone wires and these sparrow birds love to sit on and from above there turd all over my truck!!! All day every day during the spring and summer. Every day that it is there is more that collects. I don't drive my truck every day but mostly atleast a few times a week and if I am away for a weekend I would like to come back to something I can hose off easier.

    I have a 2001 Tacoma full cab (four door) and a small toolbox that only sticks out a few inches on either side.

    I don't mind spending a $200+ but if there is a perfectly good one for this purpose for $60 yes to that too!!

    Someone private messaged me with a suggestion and that helped. I ended up going with this item from ebay for around $35... Seemed to be very good quality for the price in case anyone needs one.
    It didn't have a brand name but was listed under "Waterproof Outdoor 3 Layer Pickup Truck Cover Tough Lining Fit.."
    Just do a search for it and you'll find it by its picture. It says it can fit a TOYOTA Tundra Double Cab 8.1' L/B 07-14, so I think it will atleast be big enough.
    I'll let you know how it turns out.

    it will be quite bigger, considering the newer Tundra is taller and longer. might have to grab some bungies or rope to keep it off the ground.
