I am really debating on this one…have had 2 MX4s and loved them. I do love the CF Lomax as well, so very tempted to maybe go that route. I also like some of these power retractable that integrate into the factory key fob, but I know they will take up a bunch of the bed too….can’t decide!

It's about 11" square, so you do still keep some space underneath. But that is a trade-off with retractable. If you're looking at the Retrax EQ that integrates with the key fob, then that cover also comes with the XR style bed rails so you have the option for additional storage on top of the bed, if you decide to go that route.

I don’t think the eq fits the raptor. When I went to the real truck site it shows only for the f250 or f350

I got the regular Lomax...textured like bed liner. Wanted the CF one, but saw a carbon one that was not new and it looked worn. Mainly the clear stick on rub patches for when the cover is folded open looked yellowed and the edges were coming loose. It also seemed to be flat or faded overall. It just made the whole cover look bad/cheap to me. Try to see one that is a few years old first. I was lucky that the shop I was shopping at had one on an employee truck in the lot. I didn't ask how old it was, one look and I changed my mind.

Does the Lomax fully cover the back window like the Bakflip does when its all the way open? Assuming so.

It does fit. I have multiple customers running them on the Gen 3. The only potential unknown may be the wiring for the 24MY since it does tap the BCM. But if you're interested, I can find out.

My local shop said it did not after calling real truck. I went with the RETRAX PRO XR so I can add side rales. I saw a good option to add the remote to the inside of the truck bed rather than keep on keychain so I think aside from programming to the OEM keyfab its pretty similar.

On the last 6 trucks I've owned (5 F250 diesels and 1 F150), I've installed Retrax Pro/Pro MX - as I believe they are the best money can buy. That said, I'm thinking about a BackFlip MX4 this time to avoid having the "can" at the front of this fairly small truck bed. Anybody have experience with this product or have another you think is better? Thanks.
I ordered the BAK Revolver X4s. Was torn about the flip blocking window and can taking space. It’s pretty awesome. Very easy to quickly roll and unroll with one hand, stays above the bed, and doesn’t block much of the window. Also a great price.
