    I haven't seen much out there regarding this cover, especially for 3rd gen tacos so I figured I'd post a quick review.

    I ordered on a Wednesday night and it arrived on Friday so super fast free shipping. It was well packaged and had a set of printed instructions in the box.

    Install took about 1.5 hours altogether, and that's me moving pretty slow as I am recovering from hip surgery. It seems pretty light, this is my first tonneau though so I have nothing to compare to.

    Fit and finish is excellent, all the attachment hardware is adjustable so you can get it fine tuned. Easy one person opening and closing, with buckles to keep it secured in the open position.

    Only minor issues I had were with the brackets for the back latch. One end has an aluminum nut that slides into the utility track but it wouldn't slide past the screw/washer that holds the track on. I believe this is due to the fact my truck is a trail edition, so it had those plastic tool boxes that attach behind that rail. I don't remember there being that thick washer on my 2017, either way it was only a matter of removing that screw and washer, sliding the nut in, replace screw and washer, attach bracket to nut.

    The other end of that bracket you remove one of the 10mm hex bolts, then reinsert through the bracket plate. However, that bolt has a washer attached, which doesn't quite sit flat due to the bend in the steel bracket. It is a very minor quip, but I will likely replace that bolt in the future.

    Overall I am pleased, with the current sale going on and an extra $70 off code they emailed me after I let it sit in my cart for a bit I paid $690 total.

    Are you still liking this tonneau cover? I am thinking about getting it, but I'm hesitant due to the plastic latch pieces on the rear of the unit (the parts that closes it by the tailgate). I saw some reviews on Amazon of this piece cracking. What are your thoughts and opinions about the durability and overall construction now that you've had it a couple months.

    Question, how easy is it to remove and re-install the cover when you need to use the full length of the bed?
