    One thing I noticed about these covers is the lack of security, by inserting a wire coat hanger under the back you're able to pull the wire and open the cover. Another thing is you loose the slides for securing storage, were other covers add blocks and allow you to reinstall the rail under the bed cover rail.

    Good install video. I have the OEM Tacoma one that came with my truck. Not sure if it has drains like the this one. It certainly is not 100% water proof. What I don’t think about the rough country one is that you loose the rail system for your tie down points. It also does not go all the way back toward the cab.

      How is the factory one holding up? I am going to get one from a guy who just bought a new trd but doesn’t want the factory soft one. I want it for the trips I take here and there to fly fish. I figure it won’t be waterproof, but if it can at least keep the bulk of water dust birdshit and prying eyes off of my stuff plus keep it from blowing out then it’s a win in my book

      @@ryanmurphy694 right on I appreciate you let me know. I’ll be picking that one up here in a couple hours. I’m glad to hear that. I won’t keep much under mine either except for when I go camping and I pull into a gas station it will keep the quick I in hand away from my stuff. I also like that guy can take it off easily and seemingly store it much easier than the hard cover as I don’t want a cover on full time. Anyhow, thanks a bunch.
