Question:
We have a 2016 F150 XL. We are looking for a hard cover that allows for an elevated rack for surf and SUP boards. I think a TracRac would work but I’m not sure there is a suggested hard cover for our make/model. Any suggestions?! Thanks!!!

If you wanted to use the Thule TracRac SR Sliding Truck Bed Ladder Rack on your 2016 Ford F-150 then your only option for a tonneau cover is the BAK Revolver X2 Hard Tonneau Cover as the uprights on the TracRac SR won't allow for a folding hard tonneau cover. However, if you want to use a folding hard tonneau cover like the BAKFlip F1 Hard Tonneau Cover then I do still have an option for you in the Adarac Pro Series Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack which has straight uprights so you can fold the panels on the tonneau cover. I didn't see a bed size mentioned so I have a attached a list of part numbers for you below based on bed size. Please note the TracRac SR and Adarac Pro Series both mount on top of the bed rail which is why they are able to be used with a tonneau cover that mounts inside the bed rails.
