Received the Tyger T1 this week that I got on sale (around $185) and installed it on my '24 Tremor. Installation was a breeze, I used the included weather stripping and the brackets used to mount the rails didn't interfere/get in the way of the factory tie down rails. We got some heavy rain on new years eve and I noticed leaks in 2 back corners as well as the "indentations" in the bed rails.
After getting a flashlight out and doing some troubleshooting, you could clearly see where water was able to enter. At first I was disappointed as my previous Tyger cover (T3/trifold) on my GMC Canyon didn't leak. Then I thought about it and the faults are mostly to do with the Maverick's bed configuration. Between the dip in front of the window between the rail plastics and the two side indentations.
I recall seeing a few other threads about even the most expensive covers leaking (Bakflip etc.). Outside of the small leaks, I really like this cover. I was concerned about going from a tri fold to a roll up, but no regrets considering the shorter Maverick bed.
