Recently got a oem cover used from someone selling their truck put it on and I really like the hard covers. Do i keep the oem one or do I get a diamondback or a bakflip F1. Any input would be great.
 
Depends on your needs and whether you want to spend more money on another one. If it’s working for you I’d keep it until it’s not.
 
Idk I just like the toughness of the diamond back but the bakflip f1 seems really really nice cover and like that it folds all the way up and gives protection to rear window.

I have the Bakflip MX4 and really like it. The F1 seems like it’s about the same. They are great covers. I had the G2 on my Tundra for years and really liked it.
 
I’ve got a rugged liner that’s waterproof and weighs about 10 lbs.
I’d keep the oem though.
 
My '16 has a factory hard cover and it" sucks" ! It leaks like a submarine with a f'ing screendoor every seam gasket where it folds is starting to split.and it you look in the manual it says cover your valuables in the bed because the cover is not water proof . then why the f'ck did you install them in the first place, and its an $ 875.00 option . Get an ARE they color match for like
$ 1250.00 they are nice . Just sayin ' thats my .69 cents worth

Plus it weighs 5431 lbs if you need to take it off.

Thought it was slick when I bought it... now, not so much.

But I’ll keep it cause I’m a tightwad too! [emoji857]

I've posted this before, but for a truck that's, shall we say, torque-challenged, I think we have to consider all the extra weight we add as we make our Tacos our own.

Looks cool, sure. But at what cost in poor performance and driving frustration due to too little git-up-and-git?
Thoughts?
