A folding tonneau cover is likely to interfere with your B&W Patriot # BWRVK3270, but there is a tonneau that will work for your 2021 Ram 2500 with a 6'4" bed that will give you exactly what you need, which is the Revolver from BAKFlip. The correct fit for your truck is the following:
- BAK Revolver X4s Hard Tonneau Cover # BAK64ZR
The Revolver X4s # BAK64ZR is a hybrid cover which means it is a hard cover with aluminum slats, but also rolls up so you get the convenience of being able to use it with a 5th wheel hitch.
This tonneau will sit just even with your bed rails, so you'll want to ensure that the Patriot does not extend above them, though based on my research of the Patriot's lowest hitch height (17 inches) and your Ram's bed rail height (20.2 inches) the hitch sits below the rails, but I do recommend verifying just to be certain.
