My Leer 100R will take a minimum of 8 weeks, if i'm lucky, The Leer 180, which i had before and really wanted, isn't even available yet. Everything is dragging it's feet....
Do you have any other photos showing different perspectives? I've had a love/hate relationship looking for toppers over the years. Seems to be so much variation in how one topper brand/ model looks on each truck make/model/year/ color. I have a '21 black F150 and hoping to get a better idea of what the ranch topper looks from the side/angle/ back views. thanks!

Just noticed something REALLY UGLY.
My truck has taken a MASSIVE drop in mileage since I installed the topper.

I have tightly logged every one of the last 10,000 miles on my truck.
And the chart below shows the profound hit I have taken since the installation.
This comes as a TOTAL SURPRISE to me!!!!!!!

not that far off from Aug 11. you added weight and drag on the truck, you will take a hit plus remember winter blend fuel.

Brother, that is not that bad. Remember you added a few hundred lbs. Do you plan on camping/overlanding?

I’ve had my topper since June. Currently have just over 17,000 miles on the truck. about half with a topper and half without.

I don’t track mileage as closely as you do for sure but I have noticed no change in mileage on similar use. i.e. i do the same mostly highway trips for work and the mpg was similar before the topper as after adding the topper. Now, my mpg will vary by tank depending on city versus highway. but, overall I didn’t notice a hit to mileage.

I I ordered mine June 7th, and had it installed 8/13/21. Anyone else have the Leer 100XR / Century UltraSport

and have a gap at the back window? I'm thinking when it was installed, they didn't push it up forward enough as i have a gap between the front of the bed about 1/2 inch. As for gas mileage, I've put 7K miles on since June and I am averaging 21.6 miles combined. So, a small decrease of about 2 miles with putting it on.

I've got the 100R, but i have the 2 handles. Looks like you have the 100XR. Not sure, but it does look like it should be a bit closer to the cab. At least from here....Take it back to adjust it.

Winter gas starts around mid September, that could also be the hit to your mileage. You typically loose mpgs from it.

I have the 100xr. Just checked today and no gap in the front on mine. Its so close to the back of the cab it’s hard to see in between And not sure I could even get a picture of it.

sounds like it’s not installed right. Take it back or loosen up the bolts and shimmy it forward.
