2014+ Truck Bed / Tonneau Covers

dburns050 · February 20, 2017

That's the only picture I've got right now. I'll take a few more later. Waterproofing is pretty good. There's a few drips here and there. Mainly up by the cab, by the tailgate, and along the sides. I've taken it through the automatic car wash and just has a few small puddles of water.

interesting about the leaks up by the cab and along the sides. would expect them at the tailgate first though

Has anyone tried the Undercover Ridgelander yet? Looks like a pretty versatile cover, especially for those who camp

That look's pretty sweet. I've been looking into ditching my Kuat rack for the hitch as its just too long and negates being able to tow a trailer. Look's like a good biking/camping alternative. Interested to see if anyone has one too.

There are some large gaps in the front of these K2 beds. I filled mine with weather stripping and then covered it with a black water proof calk or epoxy.

I had some bad "car wash leaks" after installing my F-A-C G4 Elite. It helped a lot.

Is your peragon cover stock color? How was the install? Do you like it?

dburns050 · February 23, 2017

Yep I just got their black one. Couldn't see spending the extra $$ for the color matched when my truck is dark grey anyway. Install was fairly easy. They have very good install videos on their website. I had help too. I like it so far.

Well, after much research I went with the roll-n-lock A series cover. I installed it yesterday. Easy to install and I'm very happy with it so far. I installed it without the tailgate extrusion because I like to open the tailgate at times with the cover in the closed position. I can always add it later if I decide to. It wasn't a cheap cover but my plan is to keep it for many years so hopefully it will hold up.

By not including the tailgate extrusion, you have only two locking points instead of four locking points.

Picked up and installed my MX4 today, looks good so far but I left the cab bumpers and the bulkhead weather stripping off until I can install in warmer weather.

BAK has a deal on now till March 17 - you can get a $50 rebate (whoopdy doo) or a Husky Gearbox for free, which is $165 for a crew cab. Just an fyi.

Edit: Only applies to MX4 or Revolver X2, and has to be bought from a BAK dealer, not BAK themselves.

Picked up a TonnoPro tri fold this last weekend. Easy install and seems nice for how cheap it was.

Haven't seen anybody mention the Undercover UltraFlex. Obviously its the twin of the MX4 but rails are a slightly different design (brackets too), tonneau is attached to the rails from underneath the cover (I love this over the elevator bolts of the MX4), and its covered in carpet underneath the tonneau.

Oh yeah its got a 5 year warranty over the 3 yr warranty of the MX4

The place I bought my MX4 from had an undercover model (think it was a flex) there as well, wasn't this one because the MX4 was the only one with the universal tailgate seal. Couple things the sales rep mentioned were the undercover's rails don't sit on the truck bed rails at all, so in theory the cover could be pushed down into the bed with enough force - probably unlikely though. The bigger problem to me was that when folded all the way open, the prop rods hold it straight up and down, rather than leaning it against the cab - so it becomes a sail. Dealer said the owner manual for the undercover states speed limits for driving with the cover vertical as well - might have been in the 50-60mph range but I don't remember for sure.

At the end of the day they are almost identical and made by Truck Hero (parent company) anyway... And the Flex and MX4 were the same price.
