    Hi all,

    Lurked for too long, decided to finally post.
    Anyway, bought a 2020 DCSB OR MT, all the packages, in Cement, brand new.
    Had it since 11/2019.

    Absolutely love the truck. This is my first owned truck. I come from a lonnnggg Audi line. Still own 2 Audi's, actually selling them both, just going to have the truck for now.

    Took me ~2 years to finally choose the first brand new vehicle I'd buy (THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE GUYS).

    Thanks in advance to all the people who provide this unsurmountable amount of information that I browse through to help with choosing what I'd like to build, and how to do it, etc.

    Plenty of stuff done so far, mostly aesthetics:

    Lots of Meso Custom goodies
    Ceramic Pro Gold on everything
    Xpel Ultimate clear wrap
    Xtang Xceed Tonneau
    CMC
    TC Bed Stiffeners
    TacoGarage Feux-Pro Grill
    Ceramic Window Tint
    OEM Bed Mat
    Rock Blokz
    Pop and Lock

    Future is 35's w/ Dobinson's suspension, RTT w/ KB Voodoo bed rack, BudBuild armor, Relentless Fab bumpers.

    Do a lot of camping, cooking, hiking, skiing, and photography.

    Thanks in advance,
    -Scott

    PS: Heres some random phone pics from beginning of ownership (cause I heard ya'll like pics).

    Thanks man!

    Always eating good on any camping trip.
    The griddle really is a game changer.

    Those turned into some real nice Korean beef tacos, with sautéed onions, peppers, and topped with slaw.... now I want to make them again :cheers:

    Hey there, I recently bought a Tacoma as well and I'm in the market for a hard cover. Got my eye on the Xceed and was wondering how yours is holding up?

    It's a great tonneau. I love the "sleek-ness" of it, and it's fairly rugged.
    It was easy to install as well.
    The twist style lock is awesome as well, compared to the cable pulls on most. More anti-theft.
    I've definitely put some abuse to it, and it holds up great. Still looks brand new after over a year.
    Also, I don't even have the drain lines install, and it has never leaked. I live in Portland, so it rains a lot, so it's a pretty good test.

    The only negative I have to say about it, is that the divider rails, where the folds are, on the inside of the tonneau, sit a bit low. This leaves about another 2" of less height you get around these.

    I’m looking at getting a Diamondback HD. Not sure where you live but I could sell this one

    @PDXscottVT yes I'd be interested in buying your Xceed. I'd also be interested in hearing more about your rationale for purchasing the Diamonback. I was looking at the videos of it and looks pretty sweet, but not crazy about not being able to drive my ATV in the bed without having to, a) remove the Diamondback, or b) commit another $1,100 to get the heavier duty model with the ramps and side rails, etc.

    I'm in Chicago. I'll PM you about your Xceed.
