Love it, looks to be great quality, etc...only issue is with the black molding on bed rails and rear, front by cab has about 1/4" gap...so I need to run and get weatherstripping to put down...other than that, looks great. Solid product!

I have the same one.. Had it about 3 months now and I really like it.. I agree with you on the gap though.. I'm looking for something to fill in there as well..

But it does not leak like I thought it would.

thanks, will get good pics this weekend, sorry, digicam at home.

Yea, run to like Lowes or Home Dept, look for like some 1 to 1.5" weather strip that has sticky one side, foam on other. Run it along the front rail, that should fix it. ( I hope)

Good to hear it doesn't leak :D

Order yourself a tailgate seal and it should come with enough to do around your tailgate and the front over the bed. Worked great on mine. And instead of foam it is more like rubber, so may last alot longer.

I use my bed too much for a cover to be of much use to me. But if I had one it would be the trifecta. My dad had one on his truck and it just worked great.

X2 picked some of the sticky foam Weather Strip at WallyWorld. Worked well. The tailgate seal, not so well. Lasted about 3 open and closes and started coming off.

Then you did not install it in the right area, or perhaps did not prep the surface properly. I use my tailgate constantly and had no issues with mine.
