+1 for Bak MX4. Works great with auto open/close tailgate.

Paregon covers work flawlessly. Why would anyone purchase a cover without... #1 research if the cover worked with their truck's tail gate, and #2 refer to #1, and #3 refer to #1. ??? Then complain on the internet when the cover doesn't work...

I have a BakFlip m4 that the auto tailgait works well.

I had a Bak Revolver x4s on my Ram 2500 and the tailgait open and closed well but you couldn't close it without opening the tailgait.

Both leak water around the tailgait with direct blow from a pressure washer or hard rain while sitting.

Best for keeping things dry were a Diamondback HD and a fiberglass tonneau.

I have the Ford low profile hard tri-fold (rebranded Bakflip I believe), and it works with the power tailgate no problem.

Same for me on my longbox - the Ford low profile hard tri-fold works with my auto tailgate

Anybody try Weathertech's soft or trifold covers with the auto tailgate?

My Truxedo LoPro QT doesn't interfere with the tailgate. For a soft cover it's great. Fits tight with a low profile and I can remove it completely in a minute or two and it also rolls up completely out of the way.

Same as someone else mentioned, I have the Leer soft/roll up cover w/ the auto up/down tailgate and no issues.

Side note - have had hard/trifold covers and soft roll ups, I prefer the soft roll ups. W/ the hard cover you either lose a third of the bed or you have to flip it up against your back windshield. W/ the roll up you get the entire bed if needed, in my case at least it keeps the water out just as well and, from a safety standpoint, if someone is aggressive enough to cut their way into it I'm sure they'd be able to pry into most hard covers anyway...

I have the ACCESS® LORADO® ROLL-UP COVER. I bought it originally for my 2015 Platinum, then transferred it to my 2019 Platinum and just last month transferred to my 2024 King Ranch. It is easy to open, stays closed when needed, and keeps the water/snow/dust out. I also installed a tailgate seal kit and nothing gets in the back when driving. Picture is from my 2019 Platinum, haven't taken a picture with it on the new KR. To transfer to each truck, I only had to buy a new seal strip that goes across the front of the box behind the cab. Installs easy as any other roll-up cover. I had a roll-up cover on my 2003 Platinum that sealed along the sides with snaps, which was a bitch to close sometimes, especially in cold weather. This cover has Velcro closure on each side and I have had no problem with it. The auto tailgate works just fine. In fact, after I installed the tailgate seal kit, I crawled inside and closed the tailgate on my self to look for any potential light to make sure I had formed a good seal around the tailgate as well as the tonneau cover. I assume the cover will perform just as it did on my prior two trucks, time will tell on the tailgate seal.
