Best job I’ve seen on a tonneau cover review! Thank you for actually talking about the stuff that matters to a truck owner that uses his truck like a truck!
Great review. I saved money and bought a soft roll up tonneau cover. It never aligned right and always felt my items weren't as secure as they could be with a hard cover. Eventually the soft cover ripped and I looked for a replacement. Saw your video and decided to spend the money and pick up a BAKFlip MX4 three weeks ago. Should of done this from the beginning. The functionality of the cover is so much easier to fold up than my old one. Made in the USA! is a huge plus. 5 year warranty. Great Customer Service.
If you're thinking about getting a cover....this is the one.
A bigger thanks than the one I left after the one-year review. Now I know I made the right decision when I bought mine. A great review of a grear product.
I saw your 1 year video about 9 months ago. Made me buy mine. Love it! Thanks for your videos. They are a great help!
Good customer service is wonderful and makes a world of difference. Thanks for the review!
have had mine for several years now on a very small tacoma and love it.
Thanks for your honesty about this product! I’m sold!
Great Review! Got mine 3 weeks ago and love it. Thanks, T
Thank you for the video. I’m going from a soft cover to this.
Best review I've seen so far, just got one myself. You have to support companies who put out a quality product and stand behind it if you can afford to, it saves money and the stress of dealing with manufacturers who try to wiggle their way out of a warranty. In the end you get what you pay for!
I put a MX4 cover on my F350 based on your 1 year review video. I've had it for about 2 months now and love it. And I've heard nothing but the good things regarding their customer service in handling warranty issues.
Shared on Facebook. Good review. I can't believe you can stand on it without damage. Would be great to have one.
Great video I like that bed cover
Great video. I'm on my 3rd BakFlip cover on my 3rd truck. I think they are the best covers out there.
Good information. Many thanks.
Thanks for the video, I was dismissing the folding covers because I tow goosenecks and didn’t want the back window covered while towing. I didn’t like the idea of buying a plastic roll up for longevity and loosening the front part of my bed. Just order this one and going to give it a shot. Might also try the bakbox to put straps and hitches in when not in use
Great review. I'm sold on it.
I just installed a new MX4 cover on my 22 F350 8ftbed. My cover had latches on all 4 panels. Installed in about an hour and works great. Almost no leaks aftar a 1" rain.
Will definitely take your advice
same deal here. got those brackets broken, bakflip sent them at no charge. great deal and service!
Nice job.
I would agree. Only time I have had trouble with any cover is going thru Wyoming and 40 mph crosswinds. I usually take some gorilla tape and snug the loose areas.
When i started a year ago one of the places i saved money was going with a soft cover with the intent to move to one of those.
I really enjoyed this video, I do have a suggestion for a fix on that second to the last panel, there are wood working clamps that could be attached to the bottom of that panel that could keep it from doing that in the cross wind.
I've had mine for three years. I really do like it, but it's not been perfect. My weatherstripping pieces wore out pretty quick, and the rubber bumpers on the underside that act as cushions (between the segments) have left indentations on the outer surface. Overall, it's been pretty good.
i have same one for 6 years. never stood on mine but its pretty tuff
Top prevent scratching, I recommend checking out the BAK FLIP Fibermax cover. It has Fiberglass covering the aluminum.
I would love to have an on my truck, but when I first started doing this, I got a 91 gallon fuel tank, and it just sits above the bed rails.
Our BakFlip is 3 years old..never once leaked! We love it!
Great update. I've been considering one of these for my 2019 L5P, but the only thing I'm not wild about is when folded up against the cab, it complete blocks the view. As such, I've been considering the X4S, which is a rolling hard cover. Haven't yet pulled the trigger on it. Maybe for a Memorial Day sale.
been thinking about your truck....what have you determined so far?
How long does it take to fully remove it?
Is it good at keeping water out?
How many gallons is your tank in the bed of the truck?
I got a switch blade cover and 3 aluminum blades fell off and I cannot close all the way. Not very happy with my cover. Shopping for a better quality cover now.
How big of property you got?
First, a question and then my experience with the MX4. What do you have on top of your B&W 5th Wheel hitch top plate? It looks like a red protective cover. Ok, on to my experience...My experience hasn't been as good as yours. My MX4 cover was bought and installed in August 2020, so about 2 1/2 years old. I parked under a tree and chestnuts fell and dented the cover in several places. That's just a cosmetic issue but you would think it could handle a nut dropping 15 feet. I also had to buy a Buckle Strap Top Side Replacement Kit after one year because they wouldn't honor the warranty when one of the plastic clips broke that you use to secure the cover down when opened and the rubber bumpers that stick on to protect the cover from itself when folded won't stay. Still a good cover but they don't stand behind them. At least they didn't with me.
Man, I'm sorry to hear that. I appriciate you taking the time to leave your experience and in a courteous and helpful manner. The pink lube plate was on the fifth wheel when i bought it. I've got so many questions about it and have tried to find a replacement with no luck. It has held up good but no idea where to get that one
@@CFarmer If you ever find something similar, please let me know. My 5th Wheel has the Reese Airborne Sidewinder king pin. It pivots 22" further back so it doesn't turn on the hitch itself. It utilizes a wedge to keep it stationary I can't use a standard lube plate because of the wedge so I use grease to lube the top plate as well as the underside of the king pin area. I'd like to get away from having to use grease!

The MX4 is an aluminum cover and aluminum is a soft metal so yes acorns falling on the cover will cause small dents. BAKFlip states that the MX4 being aluminum will gets small dents from hail and other falling objects. If you need a cover that protects against hail and other falling objects then the F1 cover is composite fiberglass but if you don't keep the panels maintained with a good quality wax they are known to soak water into the panels making the panels heavier. I have owned three MX4 covers and have a forth MX4 on order for my new Tacoma and the other three have been trouble free.
This is very helpful. I wouldn't have even considered hail damage and small falling objects making dents. My cover on my last truck was a Diamondback. Indestructible. I haven't bought that one again because I need access for a fifth wheel.
Off topic, what size fuel tank do you have in the bed?
69 gallon RDS auxilary tank
How dry is it under it.. I have yet to find a leakproof cover..
We have had our BakFlip for 3 years..no leaks..ever.
Thank you for the long term review! I have a BAK Revolver on my old truck--it has been great and I agree the customer service from BAK is excellent. They replaced my bed cover because a friend rolled mine and damaged it to where it wouldnt lay flat anymore--BAK replaced it after just a couple questions and I had the replacement less than a week later. My only complaint against the Revolver is I live in Canada where we get a lot of snow, sometimes rain and then freezing temperatures and this makes it nearly impossible to roll the cover up--it must thaw out first. So my new truck is going to get either the BAK MX4 or F1 cover--but I am definitely staying with BAK because their product and customer service are both excellent!
Totally of subject, however, do you use def at the pump or "jug" def?
I have always bought it at pump from ta and petro truck stops
@@CFarmer I've never really heard you talk about it, but was wandering. I was thinking if you can get it at a relatively high volume the pump def should be perfectly fine, and with your mileage I figured you know what works best.
Hope to see you back on the road soon, and Thanks
If your tailgate freezes up in 10 degree weather...get a Toyota Tundra 💪. You proved my point why Chevy sucks 💩. Nice bed cover review though 👍.
Thank you! Over 500k miles with no serious issues other than the tailgate freezing up and a couple of sensors towing heavy cross country every day... i don't think the tundra would make it sir. Trucks done me well for over half million miles. Think I'll hang on to it. Thank you for your comment, opinion and compliment on the review. I appriciate it
Nobody wants the Toyotas now. They are duds and overpriced.
I will take one no problem!@@trumptookthevaccine1679
