| Owners say | Twelve owners name the M-Series or M-Series XT in their own posts or start a discussion titled with it, and six more describe a vinyl-topped Roll-N-Lock or reply about theirs under an M-Series title; their trucks include Tacomas, F-150s, Ram 1500s, a Maverick and a Ranger. They like the small canister, the quiet ride, the look of the vinyl and the lock. | Seventeen clearly describe one of their own and ten more probably do; at least five of the 17 run it on vehicles we don't cover (a Ridgeline, a Frontier, a 2nd gen Colorado), and a few may have the fabric T3X. They praise the price, the easy install and how long it lasts: five owners report about four to eight years, and four more who probably had a T3 report four to six. |
| Our verdict | The smallest canister of the retractables we have reviewed and a real lock; budget for vinyl care, and lock the tailgate separately. | The budget soft tri-fold we would buy for a daily driver, as long as you need no lock and no load rating. |
