I'm trying to see which toppers/canopies have the best luck with a good seal.

Not ARE going back for the 4th time . ARE said yeah it’s an issue but we are trying !
they should have known how to seal it before they put it out for sale .
their answer to me was “ you have drain holes in the bed of the truck “
do your homework before buying the caps are expensive items . If I knew it was going to leak I would have purchased a tonnoue cover instead and save $1000

I have an Access tonneau cover, cost $500 from dealer, it does not leak (even in car wash) and held up in a 40mpg wind at 70 mph.

I wish I could just do the tonneau cover, but my dog's probably wouldn't like being in there.

The ARE dealer stated "All Caps and Tonneau covers will leak", so do Maverick taillights. Wind noise was pronounced, so since I was born to modify, I taped the gap between the cab and the cap with RV Repair tape and the turbulence ended and the leaks are almost non-existent.

I have the "Undercover Ultra Flex Tonneau Cover". I was anal about installing it correctly myself, so it doesn't leak in the least. Make sure you follow the directions correctly and it will not leak. Highly recommend.
