Hey all, first post here but I have a 2020 ram 1500 limited with ram box and multifunction tailgate coming in on Monday. I’m having a hard time finding a bed cover for my truck with these options. Ideas on a place to look?

I don’t believe the multi function tailgate is an issue. The Ram Box however is. There are very few options available. I specifically passed on a Ram Box in 2017 b/c I couldn’t find a tonneau I thought would work for my particular use. I didn’t even consider a RB when I was looking for my 2019. The only guarantee I got from anybody in regards to a tonneau for the RB was that it was guaranteed to leak water.

if there is one out there now that doesn’t leak I’d like to know about it b/c I’d really like my next truck to have the Ram Box.

That’s what I assumed but on weathertech I think it said the bed cover won’t fit on a multifunction tailgate. I think I might call dodge and see if there’s any size differences between tailgates

Check Pace-Edwards Jackrabbit. I have Roll-n-lock on my 2011 RAM/Rambox, but do not see they have one for 5th gen.

Just installed a Retrax Pro MX on my 2019 with RAM box and MFT. Purchased from TonneauCovered.com. So far so good. No problems at all using the MFT.

The MFT is not an issue, when it comes to bed covers if you have the rambox option. The MFT requires extra bracing in the non-rambox bed, which isn't necessary for trucks with the rambox. This extra bracing interferes with mounting provisions on many of the bed covers out there. You only need to find a cover which works with the 5th gen rambox beds.

I just purchased a 2020 Ram without the ram box, I do have the MFT I tried to move my leer 700 over from my 2019 without the MFT, it would not fix. The dealer tried to contact Leer, however, none at leer had any idea when they or even if they would start to build to fit the Multi-function tailgate. I've found a few cheap and cheap-looking covers that will fit.

I may go with a leer cap ..... it's frustrating for something this simple.

I have a roll n lock as well, but it latches onto the tailgate so that would exclude it as the multifunction can swing open. Any of the ones that only attach to the rails should work, but it's so new it may not be tested yet. As far as I've seen the tailgate lines up pretty close to the same.
