DiamondBack HD covers for 2019 Lariat
I am patiently waiting to take delivery of my 2019 F350 Lariat CCSB. I ordered the Truck September 19, 2018 and it is supposed to be delivered December 15th. The ford site indicates it is manufactured and awaiting shipment. I am considering the DiamondBack HD hardcover for the truck. Does anyone have experience with the HD covers or the DiamondBack products in general. They do a great job of advertising, but i would appreciate some real world feedback about the product. Any assistance would be appreciated.

I ordered the SE, not the HD. Don't need to haul stuff on top of it for me.
Should have shipped a couple days ago, and be here soon. We called them to ask a question, the guy said it arrives faster if he puts the order in, instead of the web site. Not sure if that was BS and he just gets a commission or what. Anyway, hoping it arrives before the 10th. We plan on heading out on the 11th. I've seen other reivews on here where people say they're great. "And water tight - huge bonus".

I have one and really like it, don’t own a 4 wheeler or anything but have had several times I have strapped things down on top.
It leaks a lot less than the folding cover I had on my previously, worst I’ve ever seen inside the bed was a few runs down the tailgate, maybe equaling less than a few tablespoons.
This is only due to the upward curve on the top of the tailgate, I back in my driveway so the truck is angled down and this lip causes the water to pool up on the seal, and some eventually seeps past the seal. Actual driving I have never had any weather issues with it, or going through a car wash.

I have been happy with the HD on my 17 so far. For what I need, it has worked better than the retractable I had on my 2013. I bit more time if I need to use the whole bed, but after marking where the center goes on the rails, I can have it on in less than 15min. I do load dirt bikes on mine.

I have an SE on my 2018 SD. It was on my 2014 before I traded in as well. Love this thing. If I were to do it again, I'd buy the HD. For the $300-$400 more in cost, you get 4x the hauling capacity on top. We put cooler loaded up with beer, etc. on top of them all the time, and weight adds up. No issues with my SE, but definitely push the limit, especially with my fat *** up there too!
The other thing -- I needed a couple of new gas springs for mine and I emailed them and they are shipping out to me free of charge under "warranty". Can't beat their customer service.
You won't regret buying one.
