Huh... I have had two Retrax covers and never had the issues listed above. Mine doesn't leak at all except for a few dribbles by the tailgate posts (and that's only if it rains very hard...dry as a bone everywhere else). Tailgate seal would fix that, but I haven't gotten around to installing one. Are you sure you guys installed it correctly?

However, any water that gets in that way drains right out the bottom (no tailgate seal). Bottom line, last 6 inches of bed can get damp, but again, I don't have the tailgate seal.
By the way, if anyone cares, it fits nicely under the Trac-Rac rails.

I have the Roll "N" Lock on my 05 F350, but at $1200 it would turn a lot of people off. It does a good job at keeping things dry in the bed, plus you can lock it, along with my tailgate.
good luck on whatever you buy. Cheers Ken
