John, Thanks for the reply a few days ago. My bed cover sits on top of the bed. I like it but not married to it. Let me know what you think Jon.

As long as the tonneau cover on your 2018 Ford F-150 6-1/2' bed has rails that mount inside your bed you have a few ladder rack options. For one that will for sure work we have the Thule TracRac SR Sliding Truck Bed Ladder Rack # TH43002XT-501. This has rails that mount on top of your truck bed sides and then the uprights can be adjusted back and forth to accommodate a wide variety of applications. This ladder rack uses a T-Track system that is also compatible with track-mount accessories like the Thule Hull-A-Port Aero Kayak Carrier w/ Tie-Downs # TH849000.
If are unsure of how your tonneau cover mounts go ahead and send me some photos of the cover and the rails used to install it on your truck so I can get a better idea of what we're dealing with. Attached is an installation video of the TracRac SR on a 2019 F-150 for you to check out.
