Do you have the automatic tailgate? If so does it work with this cover? Thanks!
Yes, I have an automatic tailgate. No issues with it at all.

Does your cover have the bare aluminum on the sides? This is what I've been looking for but if there's still bare metal on the sides I'd want to paint it black before installing.

Mine does. The sides are so thin (maybe 1/3 inch) you barely notice it.

I have it on my 2021 Powerboost Platinum and echo everyone's comments. I'm extremely happy with the purchase and have removed it several times when picking up items at Lowe's, etc. Just unhook it and lay it in the bed. The sides of mine were bare aluminum out of the box so I just used a black Sharpie to color it black. Looks much better that way in my opinion.

I had been debating getting this one. Would you mind sharing a couple more pics from the sides? Pretty picky about how tall it stands up from the bed frame. The website pics make it appear more flush than the pic you shared. Biggest question though, how well does it seal? Like would you trust things not to get wet back there?
So far, so good. I had WeatherTech install it on a rainy day, so I haven’t really tested it thoroughly yet. However, I checked the seals all around, and didn’t see any gaps.
I have a question about this tonneau cover. You stated "second release string that unlatches the panels at the bulkhead". Is that to remove the tonneau cover from the truck or open it from the front?

Thanks

As others confirmed, it is to lift it off completely. There’s no way to only open it from the front.
Does your cover have the bare aluminum on the sides? This is what I've been looking for but if there's still bare metal on the sides I'd want to paint it black before installing.
It does, but it’s not too noticeable, and it is smooth. That was the second thing I checked, to make sure it wasn’t jagged. I like the Sharpie idea. I may try that too.

I have the power tailgate. This was the first thing I checked. No issues opening or closing.

Those of you that have these, any issues with spray in liners? Rhino specifically?

I have Linex, haven't gotten it out in a downpour or while washing yet so I can't speak to waterproofing but it fits and the auto tailgate works.

I’ve been going down rabbit holes of tonneau cover reviews, and decided to give the WeatherTech AlloyCover (rebranded Lomax) a try. The DiamondBack SE, Bakflip X4s, and Bakflip MX4 were close seconds. The X4s seems out of stock everywhere, and I’m concerned that baddies may try cutting first before realizing there is metal beneath the vinyl. Also, the AlloyCover has a quick release for complete removal versus the hand-tightened knobs on the MX4. The DiamondBack SE can’t be removed easily. A bonus is that WeatherTech is local, and will make it right if something goes wrong.

Who else has been using the AlloyCover?

I have the Lowmax Black Urethane cover, I like it a lot.
