That's a great look. Will be interested to see how the cover holds up.

Patience and a steady hand. I cleaned the indents with isopropyl alcohol first and carefully placed the letters from the left smoothing slowly to the right. Took about 15 minutes for the letters and only 10 minutes for the cover. Good luck 😨

Thanks, cover fits like a glove and kept inside bone dry during recent heavy rain and light snow. So far so good 😊

I have the bed rail and the Gator cover installed in 10 minutes using the 4 clamps that come with it. We just had 6 inches of snow this morning and the truck bed was bone dry. Can’t beat it for the money, enjoy šŸ˜‰

Installed mine yesterday on my Hybrid XLT. Looks awesome but I’m getting a bit of a ā€œparachuteā€ effect in the front due to there not being any clamps that attach to the bed lip at the back of the cab.

Also mine included about 8’ of gasket with no mention of it in the instructions. Assuming that’s for around the tailgate opening?

I didn’t need to use the gasket as the Gator cover clamped perfectly to the rail at the front and the side bar at the back. This cover has so far exceeded my expectations. Good luck with your new Maverick šŸ€

I'm loving it. The truck and the cover are top notch for their price points. I keep pinching myself everytime I turn that key.
