This has been the hardest decision for my truck. Paragon seems to have leaking issues because there are no drain tubes for the rails. The BAK MX 4 has seal issues. Leaning towards the Line-X. Anyone have
other recommendations? Want to stay below $1K.

I feel your pain. I'm leaning towards the lomax trifold due to the ease of removal. Has anyone had a bad experience with these?

People experiencing seal issues with Bakflip I feel have not installed them properly. There are literally 100's installed over on f150forum with no issues. There's a thread about it with 582 replies right now. I've been over there for about 10 years. The key to proper installation is to make sure the bed flange the rail clamps to is straight and vertical. The flange is an area that has a lot of variance.

I have the Undercover Flex on mine and have been happy with it so far. Easy install and big no leaks.

I think I am going with the BAK MC4. Got a really good price and the reviews are good.

I have a question regarding the drain tubes on the flip covers. I have a spray in liner nod I see a hole on each side of the bed towards the cab, but I do not see any on the wall facing the cab. Did you put the drain tubes in the holes on the side walls?

I just ordered a Gator tri-fold for the Rebel. I’ll let you know how it works. Should be here by Monday.

I just purchased the TruXedo Lo Pro QT Tonneau Cover For the 2019 Ram 1500 5'7", vendor on ebay $440 shipped for free. Truxedo part number 585901.

I bought a Truxedo Pro-X15 cover for my 2019 with a 6'4" bed...….it does NOT fit....too short .....have a choice......massive gap at front or back or smaller gap at both front AND back. Obliviously it does not keep the bed dry. Several weeks of run around from manufacturer wanting me to measure the bed over and over again....finally said the bed "probably "was not a standard measurement bed

I Do not recommend these.....maybe another product from truxedo but not the Pro X15

What are the odds that they sent you one for a 5'7" bed, and are just too stubborn to exchange it?
