Question:

When its folded up, will it clear a 5th wheel or gooseneck hitch when towing?

Hey Jake,

When folded up the cover, since it is a tri-fold, is going to cover around 1/3 of your bed. Whether you are gooseneck towing or 5th wheel towing you will need to measure and make sure you have that much clearance. I recommend measuring from the front bed rail back, and make sure the 5th wheel or gooseneck does not come within 27" of the front bed rails. If they do you will have to remove the cover to tow, which is a very simple install/removal for this cover.

What year make and model are you towing with? If you have a 5th wheel what hitch are you using?
