I have a 2024 XLT and looking for a soft roll up cover that doesn't leak (a few drops are fine). It seems like the posts that discuss tonneau covers are all about hard covers. I'm looking for a soft cover. TIA

This one has been fantastic for the price imo. I’ve got it on my 25 RR. Seems to seal pretty well and it’s been through some pretty big downpours multiple times.

Thanks for the suggestion. It looks like the top rails that seem to cause a lot of the leaking issues are covered nicely. How's the back over the tailgate? Did you install a tailgate seal kit or just the cover itself?

There is a rubber gasket at the front you install on the front ledge. Works well. I found cool gap cover for $19. Keeps things from splashing up into the bed

That will also keep any water that seeps past the cover at the tailgate IN the bed, rather than seeping out of that opening.

In my experience with my soft cover, if you want to keep more water out from the top - more gaskets will help. Mine came with a couple extra and I didn’t install them. If I had, water would probably stay out better. Also, make sure the gasket at the front of the bed is firmly stuck to your bedliner or that front panel. I learned with my Truxedo one that you need an adhesion promoter to get it to stick.

Agree. I run mine through the car wash. The only water I get is from around the tail lights. Rubber gasket at front works well. I have the Ford soft cover. Same as Truxedo. I am very happy with it. I also have the Weathertech bed mat and their scratch protection package, along with the matte black Ford hood protector. All very good quality. Used all of the same on my F150 raptor.

Did the rubber gasket you refer to come with your cover or is that something else? I know a lot of people complain about the gaps in the front so curious if this is something secondary I need to buy. TIA

I put a Gator SFX soft roll up on from RealTruck, it covers all the bases and a 10 year warranty on the fabric!
