| Owners say | Long-term owners of earlier versions praise the fit, the looks and the independent tailgate, and some came back for a second one. The most common complaint is leaking, especially at the front corners by the rear window and at the tailgate end, and a professional install doesn't prevent it: seven owners with dealer or shop installs still describe leaks. | 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 | A secure, good-looking folder whose seals need work out of the box: buy it for looks and access, not a dry bed. | A four-panel folder with a strong latch and a decent water record, from a maker that no longer lists it. |
