MX4, disappointed

Looking at yours, it almost seems like it's too far forward. Virtually no overlap on the tailgate and the outter weatherstripping at the bulkhead goes almost all the way to the front edge of the bed.

Yeah, thinking the same, but the bed never gets wet washing or driving through downpours.

I've had no problems with my MX4 so far. I bought it locally and the installation was included. It has the bakflip logo if it makes any difference. The alighnment seems right and all the latches work. I also have an old backflip G2 installed on my dually since around 2013. A couple of years ago the rail holding the latches fell of and it was a pain trying to source the type of rivets the factory used to secure it to the cover from underneath. I manage to repair it using similar type of rivets and it still working fine. The new MX4 does seem more plasticky compared to the old one. I remember getting the old bakflip aligned was quite simple last time I took it off but I don't know about the MX4.

Quality control has gone to hell since realtruck owns just about every bed cover out there now. I run a truck accessory business and deal with real truck on a daily basis and it is a joke to say the least. I have always done undercover armor flex folding cover since they dont have to lean against the cab in the vertical position. I have a retraxpro xr on my rho.

Lomax tri-fold is made in USA and has served me well on my Raptors. Works like a charm on my RHO, too.

Wish I would have gone lomax. Last truck, was between these two. Went MX4 and was happy for many years. Shame on me for not researching more.

Realtruck has been acquiring alot of brands lately, yes. Slowly they will all say Realtruck rather then the independent brands. The are aware of the QC issues they've been facing as well...which is nice for them to admit.

For the money, I really like the Rough Country version of this cover, for almost half the price it does the job great. MX4 is still a very popular cover for us but everyone likes to save a few bucks so that RC cover gives it a run for the money. Grant it it does come up a little high when flipped up, but we aren't running into that daily.

Really putting this down for future people coming across this.
