2019 Ford F-250 Super Duty Tonneau Cover Recommendation for 5th Wheel Hitch Clearance

Question

Question:

looking for a new cover for our 2019 F250 69inch bed. we have a fifth wheel that we tow. I am looking at the E73DR flip cover. who makes this unit. what is important is the distance from the bed wall to the end of the cover when it is flipped. we do not want to cover the window as we drive. this model says it has a distance of less than 23, I cant be over 23 due to my handle on my hitch. are there other models that might be 23 or less? right now we have one that rolls up. also we live in florissant and can we pickup if you have in stock? thanks

Hey Keith, thanks for reaching out!

We actually created the etrailer Hard Tonneau Cover # e73DR in-house so it's our own product. When it's folded up it's sitting right about 24" so since you're needing 23" or less this cover won't work for you.

Since your concerns are about 5th wheel clearance and rear window visibility I recommend checking out the Pace Edwards Switchblade # PE46QJ. I know it's a bit pricier, but the canister one sits 9-3/4" deep and it's inside your truck bed so it takes care of both things you brought up.

We no longer have an on-site pickup, but I still have some helpful options for you on that front. We've recently launched a dealer/installer locator so if you click on that link down below you can input your zip code and see what shops are in your area that you can schedule to pic it up from, OR we don't have a video of the Pace Edwards installed on a 2019 Super Duty yet so you could reach out to our customer service team at 1-800-940-8924 and they can look into having our team install it for you directly!

How are you feeling about the Pace Edwards cover?

Hey Dave, thanks for reaching out! The panels for the etrailer Hard Tonneau Cover #e73DR are about 21" wide, and when folded up in your 2024 Ford F-350 Super Duty they will take up about 2' when you include the other parts of the cover.

Hello Wade, good question. Trailer tires are pretty durable, and generally they will need to be replaced due to age rather than getting worn down. Generally, trailer tires should be replaced every 5-6 years regardless of mileage and use. The sun is a…

Hey Cody. Congrats on your new truck. Demco does not make an underbed system for your truck. The only underbed system available for a 2025 Ford F-250 without the OEM prep package are gooseneck hitches like the B&W item #BW73FR. There's no way…

Out of the tonneau covers that we offer for your 2017 Ford F-350 the BAK Revolver X2 #BAK39331 is my favorite. It combines the sleek look of a soft roll up cover with the strength of a hard top. It is actually strong enough to hold up to 400 lbs of…

The weight of the Pace Edwards Switchblade #PE66QJ is 68 pounds. As far as as your question about the height of the cover installed on the side rails, it sits just shy of 1/8 of an inch. With this measurement, it truly depends on the height of your…
