Thanks for the video. I had my OEM bed cover installed at a dealership about two days ago after watching this video. So far I like the cover very much. No rain in the forecast for the next few weeks so I’m thinking about a car wash to check for leakage. All I want is to keep the groceries dry.
@@stevenwelchtoyota - Thanks for the response Steve. That video did give me a great metric or method of comparison. I will be getting to the automatic car wash soon I hope. I am assuming that since those bed clovers have been on back order for several months and I just purchased mine on 07/24/2004 that the bed cover recall is not an issue now. Surely they would not have installed it if there was a potential problem.
@@stevenwelchtoyota - Thank you again. I did recognize the water passage at the tailgate is part of the design. I think it’s a good one in this price range. So far - So good.
I have this same cover on my 2014 Ford F-150. It’s a great cover however, I believe this one is improved. I just bought a 1794 Tundra this weekend that’s equipped with this cover. The first thing I noticed is it seems much stronger than the one on my F-150. Several years back I had it parked in a camping spot under an Oak that was dropping acorns. They actually left small little dents in this cover. Pushing down on this one it seems to be much more durable. Secondly, the one on my new Toyota Tundra is much lighter in weight that my old one. That really comes in play when you’re folding all the panels. I’ve got some shoulder problems and my old one was really getting to be a pain the last flip or two. I’ve hauled with it with the rails locked in place and they do great! My old one didn’t have the buckles though. That’s a nice addition as it doesn’t obscure your vision though the back glass
Oh and one additional comment. My old one said to be sure to lift the last panel up before you close the tailgate so it wouldn’t damage the weather stripping on the end. Seems (?) this one doesn’t need that? Oh and it looks great spraying (at least on my old Ford) Aerospace 303 protectant. Has to be reapplied often but sure protects against sun damage Finally, when I bought the F150 I purchased an extended warranty (7/70k) and that covered this cover as well. Might want to ask if This ones covered on extended warranty as well
@@stevenwelchtoyota Oh, my new BLACK Tundra? there's four vehicles in my driveway. Twice the birds have bombed one of them over the last three days. Which one do you think it was? You got it, perhaps they don't like black?
When you say long bed are you talking about the 6.5 bed? I just bought tundra with 6.5 bed and dealership installed a trifold instead of the quad fold. When open all the way it sticks above the cab and struts will not latch.
The buckle thing that clips in broke on mine do you know what that part is called or where I can get 2 at because both buckles broke due to wind resistance
Hey man I just got a 2024 limited tundra with that same cover. Can you recommend a good bed divider I can install with the cover over it, so my bags don’t slide all the way to the back? Potential with a link too..thanks man
I’m thinking about getting that same bed cover. I watched a video earlier and he said something about there was a recall at some point issues with them flying off when driving. Was that ever an issue or is it still an issue?
I have the backflip on my Tundra ,the Toyota cover IS the Backflip, identical , Toyota stopped offering it as an option, don’t know why, I had to get mine aftermarket as a Backflip product
@@stevenwelchtoyota thank you wasn't sure if it would cover camera for the mirror, looking at a 1794 with 5.5 ft bed, and haven't been able too see one with the hard cover yet
@@stevenwelchtoyota my Tundra I pick up in a week is coming with one wish it wasn’t I like the diamond back ones better the hold 500 pounds oh well I’ll use it till it starts pissing me off lol happy my Tundra is here though 7 months I waited lol
How easy is it to go through the sliding window to the truck bed? I want the capability to transfer from the front of the truck to a truck bed cover box.
Anyone else experience alot of tonneau movement due to wind at high speed when it's fully flipped up? Made me a bit nervous when I used the truck to haul a load for the first time.
@@elyramirez625 yep, recall hit the day i posted my original comment. Thankfully Toyota has a history of fixing issues which cannot be said of many other manufacturers.
Nice quick video. Just a note that you could have shown how to remove the cover. That's what I wanted to see. Missed opportunity. Thanks for explaining the water drain tubes. You could have shown the side release of the tail gate at the tail light. Its a great feature. Missed opportunity!
i have several videos showing most of that. since you can flip it nearly 90% out of the way its unlikely you will need to remove it but its 1 bolt if you do
and the price is? I bet 1 grand. for my 2021 tundra 6.5ft bed I got the aftermarket LIFETIME warranty LOPRO 45 degree angle raised up on both side rails to gain an extra 1 inch clearance inside bed made by Truxedo soft roll up for 450 bucks. I bet 1/2 the cost of this hard top and better since rolls up less than 6 inches of wasted bed space upfront and super easy to take off if need be. PLus biggest drawback is not seeing on the folding up one like this out the back rear window, yet another safety issue not seeing behind the tundra while driving.
ya I guess it's taking chance, you'd better check if there is recall on your model, I suppose to get mine installed from dealership with new capstone 23, but the sales told me to refund the cover due to the recall, they suggest me to get an aftermarket one since they don't know how long will take Toyota to fix the issue

Sold! I’m getting one on my Capstone when it arrives.
Get it from the factory. You likely won't be able to get this one any other way
You can buy them off ebay. There are a few dealers selling through there for now. 👍
Capstone is way too expensive for the features it offers compared to a Platinum. Glad you are happy about it though. 😊

Yes
I like it but didn't order it on my 22 Tundra. Had a $budget$ I stuck to. :-)
I might later assuming I can install at my local dealer later?
possibly but you still cannot get the factory one for the tacoma after several years
How do you remove it entirely? The dealer didn’t know and undoing all the bolts seems like a pain.
If you just want it off it is easy at the front of the bed. If you want it removed forever then you have to remove the bolts.

How does this one differ from a Bakflip? They look 100% identical except for the logo 🤔
