Have any of you guys with the new tailgates put a bed cover on your truck? Does the new tailgate pose any problems? I haven't seen any special designation when ordering a cover for a 2019 or 2020 with new tailgate.... just the RAMBOX option. Please let me know what you guys have installed as my truck is due in soon. Thanks
 
nothing is out there yet except maybe the gator hybrid i hear that is compatible..

The Gator Hybrid works with the MFT. I have one and it works great.

Is that a hard cover or soft? Would prefer a hard flip back

It looks like a soft cover, but has hard protective panels underneath, hence the term "hybrid". I wouldn't stand on it, but no one's gonna cut thru it for sure.

I’m also wondering if there are any hard flip covers available with the multifunctional tailgate. My truck has these brackets in the box that I feel would be a problem installing a cover. Here is a pic. I gave ten bakflip g2 for my 17 ram and I’m thinking it won’t work so I’m needing a new one before the winter hits.

The Gator cover I posted above IS a hard cover, it just has the appearance of a soft one. It's not as thick as the OEM Mopar hard flip, but I definitely wouldn't lump it in with the soft covers.

When I bought mine, I called them to place my order and they actually told me I could try it, and if I didn't like it, return it. The other manufacturer's return policies forbid returns once the product was installed, even if it was just to check fitment.

Did you have to do anything to the corner brackets to install the Gator Hybrid??
