Question:

I currently have a trifold soft tonneau cover made by Lund, the Lund Genesis Tri-Fold Tonneau Cover I am trying to find a ladder rack to transport canoes and kayaks that can be installed while the tonneau cover is on as well. Can you tell me if a rack exists that would be compatible with this cover? If not, are there racks that are compatible with different tonneau covers folding, not roll up tonneau. If so, what are the racks and the folding tonneau covers that fit together? Thanks in advance!

I do have an option for you but the Lund Genesis Tri-Fold Tonneau Cover that you referenced mounts on top of the bed rails so there would be nowhere for a ladder rack to mount. However, we do have a few tri-fold tonneau covers that will work with the Adarac Aluminum Series Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack part # A4000963 for 5-1/2' bed or part # A4000948 for 6-1/2' bed which is the only ladder rack that will work with a tri-fold cover because it not only mounts atop the bed rails but also has vertical uprights to clear the panels.

For this, I recommend the Access TonnoSport Soft, Roll-Up Tonneau Cover part # A22020319 for 5-1/2' bed or part # A22020329 for 6-1/2' bed which is a soft top, tri-fold cover just like your Lund Genesis Tri-Fold Tonneau Cover. The Access TonnoSport Soft, Roll-Up Tonneau Cover is made in the USA and comes with a two year warranty.
