I give this cover an 8 out of 10 overall. Westin 50-6215 Black Rubber Truck Bed Mat fits 2005-2023 Tacoma (6' Bed) 137.55. Ive recieved lots of complements on it and i dont see many others on the road like it. Im just over 140 lbs and it bows under my weight, even when folded. The cover is hard but i wouldnt stand on it! nore would i use it as a bench as suggested in the flex video. the latch rods that hold it in the upright position are very easy to operate and very sturdy. what i liked about the flex over the F1 was that when folded up it doesnt touch the cab of the truck. So the cover has a few bugs to work out but all and all its a great cover. I was worried that the seal would rip and tear from vibration so i taped the screws. i covered with tape but i will have to file them also.ģ the screws holding the cover together were marking up the seal on the rails. For one the ends of the mounting rails were raw and very sharp, i used a small file and rounded off the edges.Ģ i noticed that the cover was scratching itself when it gets folded into the upright position. But a tailgate seal is all i would need to fix that.Īfter a couple months of use i noticed some tweeks that needed to be made. there was a little water leak that came from the tailgate. I installed it just in time because it rained hard for 2 weeks just after. Turned out pretty sweet, i'll be painting them black one of these days. ![]() I didnt want to drill any holes in my new truck so i went to the hardware store and got some supplies to rig something up. With the cover now installed i got to work on the drain tubes. then i folded it back up and installed the mounting bolts. first i opened the cover and lined it up nice with the box. Once the rails and seal were installed the cover mounted in no time. The cover came with a seal for the back of the box by the rear window Second try i used some D-rings that i got from an army surplus link on this site, 5 for 5 bucks! plus $20 shipping lol After a long hard decision between the F1, elite g3 and the flex, i chose the flex for its price, look, 3 year warranty and the fact that it bolts to my bed rails with no drilling.įirst try i used the shims that came with the cover I have no experience with the flex.I decided to try an undercover flex. While I am satisfied with my purchase and would do the same thing again if I had to do it over I don't think you could go wrong with either the bak or the extang. I also paid less for the extang than I expected to pay for the bakflip but ymmv on that one. Extang ships you some foam blocks with the cover, even after you install them there are still some very small holes that admitted water in the car wash. There are gaps at the ends of the front bed rail from the factory unless you got the taco tonneau. I was able to get my extang to seal well enough that I haven't had any water in the bed during rain and got just a few drips on the cab side when going though the car wash. It does get points for being quicker to open and close as the latch is something you can do from either side with one hand rather than needing to visit both sides and screw around with the pull latch things on the extang. The bakflip is nice to be able to fold up out of the way without having to remove anything but it isn't completely gone (there is still the rails down the sides and it protrudes a bit into the bed cab side) and it blocks your rear window. I also like that I don't lose any depth in my bed as it really sucks when you go to put something in under the tonneau and it won't fit because it is. The extang gets points in my book for completely going away when you don't want it in something of a hurry. My brother in law has the bakflip on his GM and his wife's Honda. ![]()
