Looking for a hard tonneau, or retractable tonneau. Any recs? I don’t want a Bac since my last one fell apart and I think the Gator EFX is the same one for cheaper. Thanks for your help.

Undercover flex was a decent cover. Not impressed at all withe Bakflip I have now. If I was doing it again I would look at the extang solid fold.

Love my trifold from weather tech. So far it’s good. I love their product. Plus this has 3 yrs warranty vs 2yrs from other brands.

I want to go Retrax route, but I have MFT - and I **DONT** want to remove factory support brackets with the aftermarket fabricated ones - dont want to loose warranty.

Like u I really wanted a retractable or hard shell, no folder or roller. I settled on this Pace Edwards Switchblade. If u can operate a blind, it's that simple & as cheap as any of the higher folder/rollers. Got it off ebay, [pic of seller below]. I literally had the item 2 business days after I ordered it. DONT get it from realtruck.com. I can get pictures of mine if u want.

Also, if u can stomach it...for $400 more u can get the Metal Switchblade which is a step up. Which is worth it imo...just not my wife's

I have a Diamondback SE on a short bed with MFT. It may not be for everyone, but I think it is great!

Nearly perfect waterproofing, works with the MFT in all directions, very well built, easy install.

Limited options if you want to retain the MFT corner brackets. And I can’t use a cover that has any part hang off the bed rails into the box, this one sits on top, so perfect for me.

Had a Fold-a-Cover on the last pickup, that one was very good, opened up more, sat on top, less sturdy, but not compatible with MFT. Although their customer service was great in 2015, not so much in 2019...

I’d recommend both.

Love my Peragon cover. Comes completely off in a couple minutes to give you full use of he entire bed when you need it. I'm on my second one, first was used on 2 1500s.

Love my Bak RevolverX4

Been looking at this one as well. How's it at keeping water out (yes, I know none are perfect). Does it fit RamBoxes and MFT? Any more input or information would be much appreciated. Have been torn between this one and the hard tri-fold BakFlip.

WeatherTech tri-Gold here as well. I like that it is metal, not afraid to put things on top or even strap item on it (I have bullrings on the corners for tie down)

I did a lot of research. Last week I finally ordered a Diamondback HD in smooth black.
