Question:
I have a 2024 ram 2500 6.4 bed when using a fifth wheel gooseneck does all the covers need to be folded up for can just 3 be folded. I like not to have the rear window blocked while towing. Do you dimension of the length with the covers in different positions. Mark

Hey Mark,
The cover BAKFlip MX4 Hard Tonneau Cover # BAK48203RB does not have to be folded up against your window when you are driving, you can fold up just three of the panels and it has straps which you can use to secure it in that position. There has not been a measurement of the cover in the different positions, but honestly I'd steer away from a folding tonneau for towing a gooseneck or 5th wheel.
You'd be much better off in regards to how much space you have by using a rolling cover, and you can even get a hard rolling cover for your 2024 Ram 2500 with a 6-1/2' bed, the BAK Revolver X4s Hard Tonneau Cover # BAK64ZR.

Hey Mark, how did things go with the tonneau cover on your Ram 2500 when towing your fifth wheel? Did the rolling cover give you the clearance and visibility you wanted? Your update could make it easier for others setting up a similar rig.
