I should have my bakflip HD Monday. Anyone else have one installed on a 17 Ford Raptor yet?

I looked at those too, but that's the one where each panel drops down as you "retract" it, yes? Kinda like an accordion? If you had something in the bed that was as high as the panels are long (when they drop to retract) then you wouldn't be able to retract the cover. Looks good though!
The panels only fold up front near the cab. See the pics below - those stainless brackets you see near the cab - that's what causes the retracting panels to change direction and fold down. Yes, if you have big items right up near the cab the panels won't fold, but every where else in the bed, there should be no problem as the panels just slide/retract over the top.

What canister are you using with your RetraxPRO Mx?I installed the Retrax ProMX last week. Haven't really used it much, but so far I like it a lot. The cannister will fit with the box link cleats installed, but you need to have the cleats in before you drop the cannister in the bed, otherwise, you won't be able to get the cleats into the brackets.
The ends of the cleats are just barely exposed with the cannister in. You can get a rope on it, but's largely blocked.
