Hey Terry, thanks for reaching out. I see you already got the cover ordered but I wanted to make sure your question was answered.
Yes, you can fold the BAKFlip MX4 Hard Tonneau Cover # BAK24FR halfway and leave it that way while driving. Its designed to do exactly that. If you’re only folding it halfway, you’ll want to use the built-in buckle straps to hold those panels in place. That keeps everything from bouncing around while you’re driving.
What do you usually haul in the bed that needs the cover folded back?

I bought one, and it works perfectly when I use my gooseneck trailer. I fold it halfway and strap the top panel. When I’m done with a gooseneck trailer, I can either cover the whole thing or open it all the way up.
