Question:
2024 ram 3500 short bed. Looking at the MX4 cover. Have fifth wheel hitch. How far back does the cover sit folded to the last position in the flat travel position? Not raised up vertical against cab. Also what is the height above the bed rail in that folded position?

Hey Jason, so the height above the bed rails that the BAK MX4 tonneau # BAK48203 will be when folded all the way back (but not up) is going to be about 4 inches.
The width of the last panel when folded down would be 20 inches. So there would be 20 inches of the bed covered from the front of the bed back.
Worth mentioning is that you'll want at least 4-6 inches from the top of the folded cover to the bottom of your fifth wheel trailer overhang.
