| Owners say | Of the six who describe water in their own bed in reports about the G2 alone, two say it stays dry, one calls it waterproof enough, two get a few drips and one is replacing seals on a used cover. The complaints are the extra step of lifting the rear panel to close the tailgate, aluminum that dents in hail, a heavy fold, Toyota deck-rail drop brackets that one owner bent and another calls cheap, and one G2 refunded over unnamed issues; of the five who have had both a G2 and an MX4, two prefer the MX4. | Of six owners who name it and mention water, three say it doesn't leak and three get a little; none describes a wet bed, and only one of those reports covers a full year. Four owners rate the latch's security, praising a cover that can't be opened with a coat hanger or without dropping the tailgate, and owners like the short four-panel stack that stays off the rear window. |
| Our verdict | BAK's cheaper folder: fine if you open the bed a few times a week and don't mind lifting a panel to shut the tailgate. | A four-panel folder with a strong latch and a decent water record, from a maker that no longer lists it. |
