So this thing "rolls up" in a drum?
Yes, its behind the cab, reaches almost to the floor of the bed. Mine is almost 5 yrs old, no problems or complaints. It comes with two drain tubes but I didn't use them because the installer didn't want to cut the bedrug to put the drain thru a knockout plug in the metal of the bed.

My son has this type on his Ram. He loves it. Metal, so less likely someone can slice it to break in. Pricey, but it cam with the used truck when he bought it. Keeps his smelly hockey gear out of the cab, but safe.

Get one of these... it'll cover everything... I was really happy to see these make a comeback. I thought they had gone the way of "things kids today will never know..."

Hell, if you ask @CDGator really nicely, she may put it on @Seedy 's new Chime card to wreck his credit score!

I like that. A friend of mine built one himself a few years ago. It took him about 3 years to build. He had a rented warehouse to do it. By the time he finished, he traded in the F350 he had for a new one. He spent a fortune but its better than factory made.

Last week I was taking lil Seedy’s bike to campus for him to use. The tonneau cover on the Tundra was folded up a 1/3 of the way. The wind caught it just right and pulled the cover down the truck bed. Thought it pulled it off. It scared me but probably scared the people behind me even more.

We want to replace the truck with a new Tundra when the kids aren’t in college or have a wedding to pay for or, or, or…. Poor Seedy. Essentially never. Good thing it’s got the million mile engine.
