My understanding is they stopped all shipments for the redesigned box. This says coming soon, so I’m sure once it’s available it will have the redesigned box.
Yep. After multiple late nights for the design team trying to figure out how to fix the fragility of the manual tonneau, they finally landed on the solution. Bubble wrap!
I'll be one of them, that's for sure. I tend to avoid aftermarket unless they offer something the OEM doesn't.
I think there will be quite a few that would buy at $1800. There are a lot of people out there that want to stay OEM where they can. I was about to pull the trigger ordering a R1T and was planning on getting them OEM manual cover, but I had an opportunity to pick up a used R1T with working powered cover for a great price. It’s always good for there to be the OEM and aftermarket options so everyone has an option they are comfortable with!
Yes, I think some were damaged in shipping. It seems those that have received them without damage are fairly happy with them. Unfortunately, it seems shipping companies don’t give a damn about packages and I’ve personally seen more and more mangled and damaged packages being delivered the past few years.
This. It's not the price alone. I don't mind paying a higher price if I am getting a higher quality piece. Based on what i have seen of the manual unit both from members here and online i don't feel its worth it. The Lomax cover is higher quality and over 40% less expensive.
