Installed the Tonneau this morning. See pictures.

Not as straight forward as I expected after reading the instructions and watching the videos. I am not sure I have it done right at the front, but there was no option to get the headed bar completely flat light their video shows.

It appears to be a modified Truxedo Cover.

I was also missing a bolt from the kit. I left a middle clamp off until I can call the company Monday to have them send me one.

I am curious if there will be a range increase. I am not sure you can roll this up with the rails installed....I will try it out and report back.

Truck delivered Dec 27, 2022. No Power Cover, but the rails were there.

Still waiting for the running boards to arrive.

Thanks for sharing. I like that it sits pretty flush with the bed and not on top. I'm still holding out for a slide in cover using the rails, but glad to see more aftermarket options. This is what, number 4/5 available on the aftermarket before Rivian even shows us a picture of theirs?

Multiple tests have been done showing little to no impact on efficiency. Branden Flasch's test on YT is one such example. The bed is almost entirely in the cab's wake.

Thanks for posting. I am also still awaiting the manual tonneau that I paid for with my order. Your version looks really nice. I am interested to hear about any range/efficiency affects you experience. Based on the fact that even snap-in wheel covers make a measurable difference, every little bit counts.

Just an FYI to the community:

Someone on Reddit said the rails from this cover block full opening of the spare tire compartment lid.

Might no matter to some, but probably a good thing to know in order to make a fully informed purchase.

It does limit how high the cover will raise up but the poster on Reddit didn't seem to know you are supposed to remove the spindle to take out your spare. I have the cover and it's no problem getting out the spare as long as you remove the spindle.

Thank for sharing. Any issues rolling up the cover with CrossBars on?
