Am pondering buying our first 5th wheel.
A concern is whether or not I would have to remove my "BakFlip G2" tonneau cover to accommodate the 5th wheel hitch in the 6' p/u bed. The BakFlip has 4 approx 18" sections that fold back on themselves and the last section nearest the truck folds up against the back window and anchors with a bracket on each side.
Wondering if others have kept their folding tonneau cover on their trucks by folding it out of the way successfully or if they just removed it because it was a hassle. I want to have my cover when we are camped and doing our day trips to be able to store stuff safely and out of the weather.
I have the exact same cover on my 2008 Super Duty and I fold the back 2 sections to expose the hitch and everything hooks up fine. Nothing rubs or interferes with hitch operation or articulation.
