Very nice
Do you have the factory ramps?
If so were u able to keep them in the bed with that installation?

I only purchased the cover. UTV ramps, toolboxes, window guards, etc are options I didn’t get.

It is nice to be able to walk on it, set full coolers, etc on top with no fear of damage.

No
I meant the Ramps from Ford that mount to the sides of the bed
I’m thinking that would prevent me from getting a Diamondback because it looks to me like it won’t fit

I looked at the ramps on Ford website and believe you are correct. Ramps probably block the Diamondback mounting point

It should work well for you in SoFlo. It’s a very nice design as well. Very minimalist and low maintenance.

None are “completely waterproof” over time. You get enough of a deluge, there’s gonna be some moisture. Absolute must is to do a very good job on your tailgate sealer. The Raptor has major gaps in tailgate closure that lets in tons of moisture. I used the ESI Ultimate tailgate sealer. I added Pliobond in the gap/edge of where sealer hits truck and then applied pressure with 1x6’s for a few hours to get them really adherent. Zero moisture penetration and in NW Montana with snow, slush, rain, mud (I live 10 miles off pavement), that’s saying something. I’ve got the Bakflip MX4 too and am very satisfied from price/looks/performance standpoint.

Different one that hasn’t been mentioned is the Pace Edwards Brand. I live in Oregon so deal with rain/snow. Downside is its pricey and takes up room in the front of bed for cover roll. Upside is drain tubes built into cover and they do a fantastic job. Stays totally dry even through car wash where mine goes 3 times a week. I got the ultra grove so I could mount my rear deck. Gives a ton of functionality having space above the bed and secure in bed storage. It’s aluminum and has been flawless.

I’m loving the price on that vs the comparable Retrax. Especially having the options for above bed expansion just like the more expensive Retrax.

I’m curious what car wash fits your raptor?
