Here are the pictures after the MX4 installation.
Can I ask where is the clamps actually clamp onto the truck? Can u show me a picture? Need to see if I have to uninstall the ram rail to install this cover. Thank you.

Sure. I will post a picture later. Once you put the rail in place, it automatically likes up with the side rail in the bed to clamp.

Can anyone who has ordered MX4 or Bedrug from Morrie comment on delivery times to East Coast (NY)?

I just ordered an Undercover Armor Flex for mine. It appears to be pretty much like the MX4 but with the tougher exterior panel finish. I paid $845.00 OTD, plus there is a rebate for $100.00 running currently. I'll report back once I receive it and get it installed.

Spoke with morrie on the MX4 and gave me a quote of 849.88.
spoke with Luke from truck alterations and gave me a quote of 755. MX4 has been ordered!!
I also ordered from TruckAlterations last week. Ordered on Monday afternoon and it arrived to my house on Wednesday, in SoCal. Recommended!

Does anybody know if the bed utility rails fit under the mopar folding cover (82215227AB)?
The bed utility rails sit down a few inches and have no problems with the Mopar hard folding tonneau. Conservatively is say you've got 4"-5"of clearance.

Some more Info...
Not much info on the Ram site for the OEM cover, but did a search on the part number 82215227AB and found an installation guide that had a support phone number (833-204-2606)and a truck-hero.com email address ([email protected]). I called the support line and the woman I talked to said she was pretty sure it's the BAKFlip G2 with Mopar/Ram badging. One difference is that the OEM version has a 3yr warranty compared to BAK's 2yr. The other thing I noticed is that the BAK website says "Tailgate: Close w/ Cover Up only"
for the G2. The install guide for the OEM says "The tailgate can be closed with the tail panel opened or closed." Also, if you get the OEM and have issues, you can take it to any DCJR dealership.
I also asked her if the BAKBox 2 would work with the OEM when they start making it to fit the 2019 Ram 1500. She couldn't say for sure, in the past the BAKBox was compatible with the OEM products they make.
Edwards, I've been thinking about the MX4 as well... and I'm still looking, but I've found the OEM cover online at moparfactoryparts.com for $757.78 (total which includes shipping to Cypress, TX).

It's been a while since this post. Has anyone tried the BAKBox 2 with the OEM/Mopar version of the cover? If they are compatible I'd like to get one for under my OEM cover.

I've been looking for a folding tonneau cover for my 2019 Limited. It looks like the OEM offered, BAKFlip and Gator are all the same except for the price. Does anyone else think the same?
Also, are there any RealTruck reps on this Forum?
Thanks in advanced!

A realtruck rep told me Bak makes the Gator....its the same as the G2
