I may have a solution for you but there is not a tonneau cover that is compatible with a Thule Xsporter Pro # TH500XTB since it uses the insides of the bed rails to mount instead of the tops of the rails.

For a tonneau cover you might be able to use something like the BAK Revolver X4s Hard Tonneau Cover - Roll Up - Aluminum and Vinyl - Matte Black # BAK62VR, which is designed to fit on a 5-3/4 foot long bed of a 2021 GMC Sierra 1500, since it mounts inside the rails and has a flush profile. You would also need a new ladder rack that mounts to the tops of the bed rails like the Thule TracRac SR # TH43002XT-782, which would be compatible with the BAK X4s, since it can be pushed all the way forward to allow the tonneau to roll up.

If you wanted to get a new ladder rack and compatible cover and can let me know what the length of your truck bed is I can come up with some better configurations for you.

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…

If the Truxedo tonneau cover happened to have the Truxedo TS rail kit (we can't get it anymore) then use the Yakima Overhaul HD Ladder Rack part #Y01151-5755 would fit with it. If you do not have those rails though it would not work.
