Installed the Tyger T3 tonneau today. Didn't even have to crawl into the bed.
Gotta say I'm impressed considering it's cost. Fit isn't perfect but very very good.
Used some leftover 3/4"W D bulb weather stripping at the front more to keep the wind out than water to keep any flapping to a min. The fabric isn't bongo tight but tighter than other fabric covers I've owned.

HPR is truly the best color. Even dirty you can barely tell. It just doesn't shine as much. Still an outstanding red with tons of flare on the road.
Glad you finally got it! Enjoy!

Actually a bit surprised how well it hides the dirt. I guess sun hitting the metallic blows back through the crud

We have a lot of red/ orange dirt here. It was a no-brainer to get a red orange truck. If it wasn't for the black plastic we would barely notice. I bet there will be a lot of sales of HPR in Oklahoma and the south or any other red dirt places.Actually a bit surprised how well it hides the dirt.

Two weeks in still learning about this truck, think I'll keep it
Seats, I get in sit down and forget about them completely, they're just comfortable. The only time I notice them when too hot.
Wiper heater activates with windshield or mirror defroster.
B&O is fine for the radio, haven't tried ripped music yet.
ACC flawless.
Lane centering, mixed feelings. Straight road no problems but transition to curve is a bit abrupt.
Steering wheel heater, finally got the damn thing to stay off when starting.
Ride is ok but not up to Raptor standards.
Braking, good with power and modulation.
Engine, quiet in the cab, very eager and fun to drive.
Transmission, a little bit rough taking off when cold, fine when warm.
rokblokz installed without issue.

Try napping in the back of the Mavs seats yet?That Raptor was my daily for 13 years, you adapt then you just enjoy. even parking garages no problem.
Working night shift I would sometimes catch a 20min lunch nap in that back seat and I'm over 6'

I napped in the bed a few weeks ago. Didn't get much sleep though as one of my dogs kept licking my sweaty bald head and the other layed on my belly.

22deg windy snow day, just a dusting, dodged the lake effect again as per usual, I'm one mile south of Lake Erie. Usually starts dumping at 2 miles in my location.
There was enough snow to activate the AWD when pressed and slippery enough for a bit of fun. Snow and stopping traction with the Falkens, pretty darned good, better than the K02s on the Raptor.
Remote started, idled 5 minutes, drove about 7 miles and after getting home/horizontal with a bowl of chili got the dreaded "Deep Sleep" message I've been expecting. Too many short trips contributing imo. The A.S.S. hasn't activated since delivery so I was expecting the message but letting it play out. Suppose I'll throw it on the Battery Tender when it warms up tomorrow and give it one charge before escalating to a service call if/as needed.
Roks kept the wet salt off the body sides better than expected.

I too have been impressed with the snow performance of the Falkens. Very solid for an AT tire. Way better than the Hankooks on my F150. Mine are wearing well also, with 24k on them, still plenty of tread, and even wear ( I rotate every 5-8k with each oil change).
Good to hear your Tremor is treating you well in the snow!

Looks great in the snow. If I was back in Ohio, I would be out there having soo much fun. I love the snow its the only time you can drive like a total maniac a 30mph and have a totally reasonable excuse for the cops!
