You have read correctly. The best tonneau cover and ladder rack combo for your 2018 Ford F-150 consists of the Thule TracRac SR Sliding Truck Bed Ladder Rack # TH43002XT-501 and the BAK Revolver X2 Hard Tonneau Cover # BAK39327.

With almost every other combination on the market between different covers and racks, there is either interference due to both systems needing the same space on the truck for their mounting hardware or because the cover makes contact with the rack's hardware or posts when rolling or folding up.

The TracRac SR Sliding Ladder Rack sits right on top of the bed rails and the BAK Revolver X2 installs completely inside of them. We have also confirmed that the cover will roll up towards the cab without hitting any part of the TracRac.

Compatibility is certainly a major benefit of this combo but it's far from the only reason that separates these two systems from the alternatives. The Thule TracRac # TH43002XT-501 is an extremely versatile system that uses a T-track base to let you adjust the space between the two crossbars, allowing you to carry different sized cargo items with ease. It also has a robust 1,250 pound weight capacity.

The BAK Revolver X2 # BAK39327 features a unique design as well that provides you with the benefit of a soft roll-up cover that doesn't obstruct your view from the rear cab window when rolled up along with the strength of a hard folding cover with its durable aluminum construction.

I have attached a couple short video demonstrations that you can check out as well.
