Thanks for reaching out!

I recommend using the BAKFlip MX4 Hard Tonneau Cover # BAK76FR for the 5-1/2' bed on your 2023 Ford F-150. I really like this cover because it has an aluminum construction with a matte black finish so it's going to be very durable, have superior corrosion resistance, and it will match any black trim on your truck really well.

The rails mount on the inside of the bed sides so there is room to install a ladder rack as long as the rack is designed to work with tonneau covers. If you don't already have a ladder rack in mind then I recommend checking out the Adarac Pro Series Custom Truck Bed Ladder Rack # A86RR which mounts on top of the side rails for your truck bed and uses legs that stand upright as opposed to slanted inwards, which means your folding tonneau won't be making any contact with it.
