    I am looking for a cover for my 2019 DCLB and need some help. Ideally I want a hard cover that will be water tight or close to it. Don't want to go with Diamondback because of how it removes the usability of the bed and I don't love the idea of a tri-fold that would block the rear window. So I guess I am looking for a roll-up hard cover which I have seen a few of but haven't seen anyone on here that has one and how well it works. Thoughts?

    The only ones that are truly watertight are the ones that are one piece fiberglass. Otherwise, a little bit of water somehow always finds a way in.
    I have had both and i personally like the utility of a tri fold. I have one now. Last one I had was a roll up. Let's just say there are advantages and disadvantages to both.
    Just read the reviews and get what you want. I will say you need to spend some dollars as quality goes up so does price. There is no such thing as top quality for cheap.

    Yeah I understand the quality/price equation and I know I'm going to be spending some coin but I want to make sure it's good.

    I would put more credibility in reviews as most who review actually own the product.
    Here on Tacomaworld you will get reviews and opinions from people who do not own the product. Hell, some of them have never owned a truck before and will still opine!
