Product Reviews : A.R.E. Truck Caps and Tonneau Covers

With regard to the LSII for the 2018 Honda Ridgeline, the pros are as follows: (1) good color match; (2) ease of operation; and (3) the appearance of good quality design and construction. The cons are as follows: (1) somewhat poor alignment of the rear latch mechanism, which is obvious to the critical eye; (2) not water-tight; (3) the application of adhesive to fill the bed rail gap, which the cover sets on—when the cover is opened the adhesive (like bubble gum) sticks and pulls along webs of the material. Although ARE makes good products, which are ubiquitous, this application of this type of tonneau cover falls short. Also, I ordered the LSII with the finished (beaded) edge, which was not installed.
