| Owners say | 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. | They like that the folded panels stand on prop rods instead of resting on the cab, the low profile, the build and the long service lives, up to nine years. On water they split evenly, four dry and four with some water; one owner gets water at the tailgate in a car wash while another's cover came through one dry, and only one cover began leaking with age, between the panels in year 3. |
| Our verdict | The budget soft tri-fold we would buy for a daily driver, as long as you need no lock and no load rating. | Our hard tri-fold pick: it stands clear of the rear glass and seals better than the MX4 at about the same price. |
