It will probably be a few months, but I will keep everyone posted.
Or just buy it on eBay. When I did the math it was going to save only a few bucks - totally not worth the wait
On mine, the bolts have all corroded and look like crap, for no reason I can tell. The latches have gotten loose. It rattles. Given the choice, I would not buy it again, there are better made options out there.
Mine has been on for about 2 months so far. The latches aren't loose but they aren't flush with the surface the the plastic flap gets caught in them all the time.
I would be interested in another group buy. Keep me posted.
I do not carry or keep chemicals in my truck. I do not tow a boat, so there is never salt water. This is basically daily driving, and why you should NOT buy one of these, besides the crappy latches. Bolts corroding like this in a year and a half is NOT acceptable.
Hmmm...the bolts would be easy to replace with better rust proof ones but the plastic guard catching on the latches and the latches themselves not being great is a key feature. Of course we should expect quality bolts as well. I have heard the Trail Tailor storage solution is made out of aluminum and much better quality...but this comes at a much higher price. Wonder if the TT latches catch on the plastic guard too?
Jason is pretty darn proud of the hardware he uses in his. He was telling me about how much the cost of bits were before I was dumb and bought this one. I'd expect no issues if I bought the TT setup.

That's certainly disappointing. I would swap those screws out for SS asap while you can still get them out. As far as the latches go, that's also disappointing. I wonder if you could have @BenCC print you a replacement for that rubber gasket that had a wider footprint and shallower transition angle. It seems like that gasket just has too steep of an edge, which would catch the plastic.

Alright, the next Group Buy will be starting this evening. Lots of good info. They will be shipping from the US this time so much shorter shipping turnaround. Details to follow tonight. I will update the first post with details and post here again to let everyone know when it is up.

Any more reviews from people that have owned these for more than a few months?
I'm hoping that rusting out hardware issue has been resolved as well as the broken latches. I too would be interested in user review from the last group buy.
