| 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 the nine CT owners who describe water, five report a dry bed and four stop short (reasonably water tight, car-wash drips on two trucks, a bit in very heavy rain), and none describes wet cargo. They praise the canvas look and how clean it stays, the clear rear window when rolled, and the tool-free removal. |
| 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. | Our top-rated cover: a hard roll-up that keeps the bed mostly dry and the rear window clear. |
