Can BAKFlip F1 Tonneau Fold Up And Allow Fifth Wheel Hitch Access 2025 Chevy Silverado 3500HD
Updated 10/27/2025 | Published 03/25/2025 >
Question:
I have a 2025 Chevy 3500 HD long bed. My question is can I fold the back 3 panels on top of the front next to the cab panel and tow my fifth wheel. I do not want to haul with the panels up. I want to lay them flat for better visibility.

Hey Raymond, with the BAKFlip F1 part # BAK37FR folded up but not up against the back of the rear glass of the truck you will be able to tow your fifth wheel trailer. There would be enough access to the truck bed and hitch since you have a long bed and this is a quad fold and not a tri.
