A lot of hard covers make you choose between protection and space, but the BAKFlip MX4 gives you both. Its quad-fold panels flip open in sections so you can access part of the bed or fold it all the way up for full use when hauling lumber, ATVs, or camping gear. Prop rods hold the cover upright so you can drive with the bed completely open. The panels are 1/2" thick aluminum, strong yet light, and the cover itself weighs about 71 lbs for easy handling.
Keeping gear dry and secure is easy with this setup. The MX4 uses automatically latching panels that lock when the tailgate is closed, forming a solid barrier against theft or shifting cargo. Matte black rubber seals and a built-in drainage system channel water away from the bed, while a rear seal lets you open or close the tailgate whether the cover is up or down. It’s not just about looks—it’s functional weather control that works through storms and car washes alike.
You can load up on top without worry. The rustproof, aircraft-grade aluminum panels are rated to hold up to 400 lbs of evenly distributed weight. A premium-density foam core adds strength without extra bulk, and the matte black finish resists scratches, scuffs, and UV rays so it stays clean and sharp after years in the sun.
Mounted inside the bed rails, the MX4 keeps its profile flush with the truck body for a sleek appearance while leaving stake pockets open for racks or tie-downs. The aircraft-grade rails clamp to the inside of your bed—no drilling required—and are finished in black powder coat for long-term durability. It’s also compatible with accessories like the BAKBox2 toolbox if you want to add secure storage under the cover.

the bedcover finally came in.
Few pictures of it installed.
I replace a camper shell with the tonneau cover because it is easier to remove when I want to put my pickup camper on the pickup. I am very happy with the cover and am glad I made the switch.
Excellent product! Wait time was crazy but manufacturer is to blame on that one!
I am a huge fan of the BAKFlip. The installation was pretty straight forward and easy. Anybody with moderate mechanical ability can install. I think it took less than 2 hours. I live in a heavy snow area and had more than 24” of snow on it at one point and the product performed flawlessly.
Bought it used.. I asked if it was complete undamaged.. It arrived complete including a scratch on the inside cover.. I'm glad it wasn't on the outside cover. Shipping was quick. Installation was fairly straight forward
The cover functions ok. The tailgate leaks quite a bit. The manufactured edges that where cut were sharp and not painted or treated. The weather strip along the edges has already discolored/faded. Disappointed in the fading and less than ideal sharp edges. Somewhat expected leaks, but not this much. Average at best rating, especially for the price.
I installed the BAKFlip MX4 in my RAM 2500 Crewcab has the 6' 1/2 short bed, drived 300 miles now. good product, open and close the tailgate without lifting up the cover
Great tonneau cover. Fits as it should.
I have been using this cover for almost a year now, and am very pleased with it. It looks and fits great, and it is secure and keeps most of the bed dry in the rain. A couple of rubber trip bits have needed some improved securing, and I used a little RTV so it was easy. I drove it across the country round trip last summer and it was perfect. I would recommend this cover for a great-looking and pretty secure cover. Finally, it is easy to fold forward when it is time to haul loads taller than the bed rails.
So after a year I am still loving this bed cover. Had the fiberglass version for my 2013 F-150 and loved it as well, that's why I purchased this one for my 2019 Super Duty, it was also the first accessory I purchased for it because I was so used to my other one and knew I couldn't live without it. I never installed the drain tubes on either covers and still haven't had water get it my bed. Also the folks at etrailer are always awesome! Thanks again!
Purchased this BAKFlip for my new 22 RAM Classic 1500. Installation went well, instructions were good to follow, and it fit perfectly. One of the plastic hold down clips had a manufacturer defect with excess plastic mold residue inside the clip that prevented it from properly working. I sent an online warranty claim explaining the problem, and a new clip was sent to me in a reasonable amount of time, and it worked fine. After one year of using the cover, I am very happy with it. Everything functions as it should, and it is very versatile. While it is not 100% watertight, I mostly notice a small amount of leakage around the tailgate seal after washing the truck. Under normal rainy weather, there is no leakage, and we get plenty of rain in the PNW. My four-star rating rather than a 5 star is only because of the manufacturer defect and the curling of one of the rubber cushions on the underside of one of the panels where the adhesive holding it on the edges has not held up under the hot weather (with the black color, when the sun beats down on the cover it gets pretty toasty inside the truck bed with the cover closed). I am thinking that should be an easy fix by applying some good adhesive and taping in place until the adhesive cures. Just haven't gotten around to doing it. Again, really like this cover. Would recommend it to others, and if I ever have a need for one in the future, would definitely not hesitate getting another BAKflip.
Overall, I am very pleased with my BAKFlip MX4. It has held up well after 1 year. It works well and looks good. It matches my matte black accessories and trim. It was fairly easy to assemble but I did have some tight fitment issues near the cab where the cover connects to the rail. I really like the security of the hardtop and access through the tailgate. Water is generally kept out, but sometimes there are water drips near the tailgate depending on the angle parked. So this cover keeps the bed *mostly* dry.
etrailer was very fast to deliver my cover, and it came in good condition.
BAKFlip MX4 is a great addition to any pickup. It allows for secure transport of material, keeping it dry in bad weather and yet readily accessible with the flip of a panel. It also keeps the weather away from your 5th wheel hitch. Can be left on when towing.
Ordered the BAKFlip MX4 for my son on 12/15 after calling to verify the tonneau would arrive by Christmas. Then received an email that said "Your order has been forwarded to one of our partners for direct shipment to you" and never received another shipping update or any tracking info. Finally on 12/22 I emailed Etrailer.com who told me they didn't know when I would get it. The Tonneau finally arrived on 12/29, 3 days after my son returned to California (he drove his truck, 2100 miles). He won't be back till next Christmas so I have to figure out how to return this product. I had several other buying options to get this here by Christmas, but went with Etrailer because of their reputation. This will be my last purchase from Etrailer.com.
I love how this tonneau cover works. because it allows use of almost the entire bed of the truck when it's fully open. I was a little disappointed with the clamps for installing the side rails, as they didn't seem as robust as the clamps in the cover I bought for my last truck. However, I am happy with its operation, and the fact that the truck bed is a locked compartment when I lock the tailgate.
The best truck cover I’ve ever had.
I love the cover, very sturdy and has held up very nice for 1 year. The one issue is, I have a long bed Ram and when I fold it up against the cab, it covers the camera for the bed. This is a design flaw and if you use the bed camera when you have a load in the bed and the cover is folded all the way up, you can't use it.
This cover has held up well. I would buy this again if needed.
No water leaks around the cab area or the sides. Have a one inch gap at the tailgate. I have sedan expansion foam strip to help seal off the tailgate. Does well at the car wash. The sides have a water or rain gutter that diverts water out the back of the truck.
I like the tonneau cover a lot! It's sturdy and helps keep belongings out of sight, out of mind. I had to cut the rail as it was about an inch too long for my truck but besides that the install was easy.
Great fit on a Ram 2500 long bed. Everything stays dry on the inside.
The bed cover has been great so far. Followed the instructions and took my time adjusting it and it has been working well. Keeps the bed dry and looks good. I did have to order an extra kit to get enough rail clamps. Once I put the extra clamps on it feels much more secure. For 8ft beds they need atleast 8 to 10 clamps, not 6. The cover has been working in that I don’t have to uncover the whole bed to use it. I just need to open up as much as I need at the time.
Do you have a question about this Tonneau Cover?

I reached out to the manufacturer and they said if you install the rails with the tailgate closed then the rails would sit on top of the tailgate, which is correct.
