Gatortrax is an easy install and 99% water tight. Rolls easily as well.

No thoughts yet as it’s in the mail and I don’t get the truck until Tuesday but will let you know. I went with the Vanish because of the height and the weather stripping in the from of the box

Picking up a CPO 19 Limited with 15xxx miles in Ivory white, level 1 group, off road group, 33 gallon tank. Wanted new, but needed the air suspension to get into the parking garages at the hospitals where I work, one in particular is supposedly 6' 5" and new is just wayyyy out of my price range

Is this the right rails parts to install bakflip?

I went with the A.R.E. tonneau for aesthetics, and because I’m not a big hauler. I absolutely love the appearance, because it’s painted to match perfectly, and it‘s wired to work with my key fob, and the passive entry. It’s also lined with the exact material as my Bed Rug liner, and came with L.E.D. lighting that comes on when opened.

Access Vanish. Fit perfect and nice slim look.

Went with the Rough Country hard tri-fold, very minimal on leakage.

I went with WeatherTech alloy tri-fold.

Just installed one yesterday. Had an MX4 on my other truck. I like the Armor Flex much better. I did have to adjust the back of the rails slightly by pushing up on the rails as I tightened the last clamp because the tailgate was hard to shut - the back of the cover was sitting too low because the rails were leaning down/inward too much. Maybe needs a shim. Otherwise the Line-X coating looks great and should be much more scratch & dent resistant, and I like how the cover doesn't lean against the cab in the upward position. Just seems better quality overall than BAK even though they're made by the same parent company.


Truck Alterations (Luke) is the cheapest. $780 OTD for an MX4 right now.

Hi
Your truck with or without ram box ?? Any pic for the cover please

After having it for a bit, do you still like it? I found it's the better "bang for your buck" being that it's "only" $650.
I live in South Louisiana so i get pretty much the same weather. Just seeing how it does with the rain.

I've been looking at both the Gator EFX hard cover tri-fold and the Undercover Ultraflex on Amazon. They both look great, but the Ultraflex is nearly $300 higher than the EFX. Not sure if there would be that much difference in the two...

The ultraflex seems to allow almost the entire bed to be used without being removed. The Gator allows about 80%, but is pretty easily removed from the bed with hand nuts. I love my Gator, but I don't use my entire bed very often so it's perfect for me. I guess it just depends on what you want and will use it for.

I like it, but there are drawbacks. I have had to haul a few things and the panel closest to the rear window does not fold up. It's easy to remove, but I've seen some that fold up to the rear window. Today I added a weatherstrip at the end that meets up with the tailgate. The leakage is minimal, just tried to seal it more. I don't foresee myself doing anymore hauling, just in the process of moving, but I think it's a good deal.4

I installed a Truxedo Sentry CT hard roll up cover on my 2019 1500 Limited with ram boxes. It mounts to the existing ram box adjustable tie down rails for a clean install. It mounts in a slot on the rails over the adjustable tie downs so you don't have to remove the tie downs. Its low profile so you can open the ram box covers all the way. I had an issue with the rails on one side where the cover was sitting high. Had to loosen the bolts holding the rail, push it down and re-tighten, then all was good. It uses sliding mounts at the far end so you can remove the whole cover without tools but using a hammer to tap on the sliders makes it easier to unlock. The tailgate side you pull on a cable to unlock.

I had a hard folding cover on my previous truck and think that the hard rollup is just as good. This cover is expensive compared to others but I think its worth it.
However, before making the final buying decision you need to properly analyze and read the in-depth review about tonneau cover. I have found this tonneau cover list review more informative and useful. Hope it will help you to find the best one.

Lots of good reports And new suppliers to look at. Wondering if anyone has experience with the Leer 650. It’s a 4 panel foldable fiber glass compound for the 6’ 4” bed. It looks great and doesn’t block the tail light 2hen the bed is completely open.

I got the Access Tonnosport, I hade one on my tundra as well, it held up, its easy to use and pretty reasonably priced.

Of course Security Guy would like a rolling tambour door! Nice truck though. ARE Fusion is pretty strong too.
