This is what I use on my S2000 top, and the fabric is the same. It is not canvas...
If you want a hard rollup, the Sentry CT is the best one out there IMHO. Looked at them all and too many shortcomings with the BAK, not to mention the convertible top fabric on the Sentry is very nice and will age well if maintained with UV blocker/cleaner.
Pretty secure, you need a pry bar to get in and work it - basically destroy it to get in. Maybe a coat hanger to grab the pull and pull it might work. About as good as it gets for anything but the diamond hard tonneau.
Perfect. This thing is pretty water resistant. Had small amount of water in one ”valley” of the bed, maybe a couple of tablespoons. Looked like a small drip up at front - put in some more weather strip and have not seen since. Can’t say enough good things about this top.
Essentially coming out of warranty and getting a new car with new Warranty on what was basically a straight trade - New Truck for Old Truck, very little $$ required.
Additionally, the Ridgeline was showing some common faults one of which was concerning. The big one was the transmission...
Congratulations! We just rolled 1,000 miles on our XLT Lux 2.0 4K FX4 and really love the truck. We did the same - in this case ours was a 2017 Honda Ridgeline with 50K but either way walked out with a paid off truck.
Put on a front hood protector (Lund/Ford), RokBlokz mud flaps, Sentry CT...
If serious…sold our Ridgeline (2017). Ridgeline is slightly wider, bed slightly bigger and towing capacity 1000 lbs better tHan 4K tow package. We prefer the Maverick ride, drive and size.
Our opinion - both equally capable with Maverick a nicer more modern drive and ride.
Treating metal and addressing rust is 50+ years old. To see this - in 2022 - should be embarrassing. Has nothing to do with a “$20,000 truck” or anything else. $10 wrenches get better treatment and show less rust than shown here. Living on the coast of FL - not happy to see this.
Yes they do the cut out for the Left and right cubby’s (inverter and storage). XLT Lux. Had to do the cutouts myself for the 12v and bed extender on both sides. Some have not cutout the bed extender and put the mounts on over the plastic which probably works fine.
We took delivery of our XLT Maverick Eco 4K FX4 AWD in April. Went from a 2017 Black Edition Ridgeline to this truck. Functionally, we gave up 1K lbs in towing but realistically we no longer tow much more than 3K so did not give up much. We gained a better AWD package and better engine power...
I want to tell you yes, but Ford like all manufacturers has had challenges with supply chain leading to delays and gaps. I would say likely yes, but if you are not scheduled then my guess would be 50/50. If scheduled but late in 2022…then 80/20.
Just a guess - don‘t think anyone including...
Only a 1,000 miles so far and good investment. They are tougher and protect better than other options. More $$ than they should be IMHO, but hey I paid. They should have stainless fasteners. But for protection of paint from pebbles sand mud, yeah we like. Look good too but that is individual .

If posting something like this please add some context as to why, what and how relevant. I came across this same older video when researching EcoBoost before ordering my own. As even noted in the video, Ford has made improvements over the various versions of the Ecoboost and by...
To OP - nice video and thank you for that. We are finding we actually like the DIBL.
The DIBL sides have two cutouts by the tailgate - 1 for the bed extender mounts and 1 for the 12-volt accessory access. They are inscribed on the inside and should be be cut-out before install. I needed both...
