Tonneau Covers: TRUXEDO PRO X15 worth it?

[Imamurrman]

I know there have been a bunch of other forums regarding tonneau covers but thought I’d revisit after people have been using them for a while. I am between the Gator SR1, Tonnopro Low Roll, and Truxsport, or Truxedo Pro15. Does anyone have any of these or the Pro15 now that they have been driving with them for a while? Just trying to decide if the pro is worth it for an extra 300 dollars. Thanks!

For what its worth, my son has the Gator trifold on his 22 Maverick. I bought a Tyger trifold $239 for my 23 Maverick. The Gator is $289. Both are good covers if you are looking to save money. Easy to put on and take off. The Gator is a year old now and is holding up well. I had a Tyger trifold on a different truck a few years ago. It was pretty good for the money and I expect this cover to hold up ok over time.

I was planning to maybe go with the TYGER T3 too but will have to wait until April since according Tyger since they are not in stock.. They have a 10% discount to use.

Having issues installing this one. The version I have doesn't have the rubber foots on the tail gate side.. think it's also the reason why it won't close. Anyone else have a pro15x with out the rubber foot at the end?
Here's a YouTube video on the install that has it at the end of each rail.

So I just bought mine and ran into the same thing. Did you happen to figure it out?

Ya I eventually figured it out. Apparently the video was not endorsed by them and an older design. The new model has no end caps.
Anyhow I repositioned the clasps to the very end and it eventually held in place to lock the cover down.
I can take some photos later if you want. Lmk

I have the pro 15 with the elevate cs racks. Great cover so far, no leaks. Love the roll up vs the flip tri-fold I had.

That be super helpful thanks! Did you wind up having to use the large front corner seals? Maverick has a sort of groove where the instructions tell you to place it so wasn't sure.

The clamps are in the identical spots on the opposite rail.

as an update to is it worth it?
After getting it on, yes, but it was finicky to install and the seller nor the manufacturer had no real tips.
