    Ive seen a few posts on here about the ebay and Amazon covers.. The ones im seeing say they fit 2018. I would assume they would also fit a 19 but want to make sure.. Id like one to look as flat as possible.. So Im looking for suggestions.. And if you bought the amazon and ebay ones Id really be interested in your personal feedback.

    Recently purchased the Tyger Auto roll up cover for my 13 DSCB for $190 on Amazon. Did a bit of research prior to purchasing and found lots of positive reviews. I dont have any complaints yet

    I've had one on my 2010 for a couple of months now and its held up well in snow and ice. I had an access cover a couple of years ago that was definitely nicer/higher quality, but bottom line, the Tyger in functional and i have no complaints.

    I snagged one of the Tyger roll up covers for my 18, back in... August IIRC, before a little trip.
    Wasnt sure which direction I was going to take with the truck, so, didnt want to spend big money for something possibly temporary....

    Either way, gets opened a bit. Holding up well so far, rolls totally out of the way and can still use the forward fork mounts for the bikes...
    20181224_140935.jpg

    Lays pretty flat, and tight, and tension is adjustable...20181103_085258.jpg

    I wouldnt have a problem buying another one.

    I had a TunnoPro on mine for about 4 years without issue. Would still have it but I traded some of my labor for a used hard cover. This fall, I bought my daughter a pickup. Got another TunnoPro from Amazon for that truck.

    I wanted to try my hand at a cheaper cover.. I haven't had one on a truck in about 15 years, so I didnt want to shell out a ton of cash for something I might take off.. It was a toss up between the North mountain and the tyger.. I went with the tyger because it had some pretty positive reviews on it.. It should be here Saturday so we will see.

    I also have the Tyger rollup, sub-$200 and very happy with it. Good quality, and very versatile ... better than a tri-fold in my opinion, and cheaper too.

    Tyger showed up on Saturday.. Fairly quick install.. Looks good and seems to be pretty decent quality for the money..

    Mine is as watertight as it was with my previous ARE Z Series topper. Which means that there is some bed leak near the front, but the Tyger (mine’s a rollup) itself seems fine. And we’ve had a lot of rain lately.

    Are you still able to use the bed cleats with the Tyger or North mountain roll up covers?
