My new '25 will be coming in March! As such, I am looking for a tonneau cover for the bed, and am open to suggestions. I want to spend under 1000$, and am hoping to get a solid trifold variant. I want it to be very waterproof, and solid enough plastic that it is hard to puncture.

Let me know what you all have tried/suggest!
I have the hard top tri fold, it leaks at the tailgate in the carwash. small gap between tailgate and top. My old truck had a Leer Fiberglass Tonneau cover, very dry but not convenient

will never use a car wash. No leak in the rain?

I went with the Ebay $325 hard cover with led lights in the rear section. Pretty pleased with it so far. I like the fact that there are no side rails to deal with and it can be completely removed in less than a minute.

Fit checker says it won't fit a 2025.
Nothing has changed on the bed dimensions, they probably just did not update the year on the advertisement. All Mavericks are the same since new (except the new grille on the 25's)

I figured, youve never had water issues? Hoes the locking mechanism?

Any advantage with Aluminum trifold cover over the Plastic?
Understand Aluminum is a little heavier.
==> What about strength, flush-fit, heat buildup in the sun, or keeping the deep black color over months of exposure?
I feel partial to aluminum based on perceived strength and durability, am I wrong?
I’m considering this one at $350 with free shipping:

That isn't a true 3 folding tonneau . lose part use of bed with only two sections folding over . great buy if you can only use bed with 2 folding sections . My undercover armor tonneau is true trifold . of course it was $900 3 years ago .

Nice pics, yes the flip-up is great, but I only need the full bed maybe once a month. So I'm ok to just remove it for a weekend of work or camping. Thanks Jah.

Dig that corrugated look, like a race-support vehicle or something. 🏁 Thanks for sharing!
