    Great review and good, impartial comments help reinforce our buying decision for the exact same SE version of Diamondback's bed cover. Also appreciate the thought process behind mounting bikes, etc down the road. Nicely done and thank you for your service.

    It’s amazing how many bed cover “lock” with plastic bolts. People sometimes break the bolts themselves when closing their cover. Diamondback is the way to go!

      @@ToTheCoreMedia Thanks for your video of the Diamondback HD! I am just about sold on this cover as being one of the most secure. I do see a potential flaw that looks like it could easily be exploited. It looks as if all someone would need to do is remove 4 hinge screws and a cover could be removed with a slight twist from the hinge side. It would be cool if someone could verify this as it looks like this would be pretty easy to do. The alternative cover I am looking at is the Renegade cover which is similar but does not have hinge screws that can be removed. What is your opinion on this? Thx.

    nice video your, not picking, but your gas springs are installed upside down. If you check the installation guide , also on the side of the spring there is a painted arrow pointing this way up. About a 30 second fix :)

    I’ve got a work truck that one of these came with “gull wings” on the front half. I really like the security of it since I do a lot of parking at trail heads and I stay at hotels for 2 weeks at a time. Prevents the smash and grab. Need to weatherstrip the tailgate though. Gets a bit dusty, lol.

    Good review,. Got a question you might be able to answer for me. How much space/how tall are the metal studs? AKA I am trying to figure out how much extra height you can get on the cover. So from the bottom of the stud to the cover. it looks like about 2 inch maybe a little less. Mind measuring for me?
    Thanks.
