Another Cool Mod on my Ranger Raptor, Power tonneau cover

[jonathanh]

I am very glad to have another cool mod on my RR. It's the electric-powered tonneau cover, with lock. It's super easy to use and it won't open after locking the car. I can control it by button, remote control, or APP on my phone. Super easy to use and runs smoothly. love it! Will install another seal for the lift gate to make it clean inside.

Nice just wouldn't work up here when there is snow or ice on it.

I agree. Manual said need remove snow before use. Good thing is California should be good lol

That is awesome, but it would totally be a problem in New England with snow and ice. I was trying to figure out why Ford didn’t release the Ford factory one to us sold in different markets overseas, in Australia. Just realize it’s obviously because of snow and weather in some parts of the US.

Please give us details how and when you seal the tailgate to make the system dust and water somewhat sealed.

The powered tonneau cover for my RR is due next week. I have not talked with the installer how they propose to seal the tailgate.

I will. I ask shop to make a tailgate seal
Kit for me. I am still waiting for that now.

Didn't Ford make a factory power tonneau for the Australian market? They had a switch for it next to the in-bed power. I wonder if you can buy that for the US?

Are those T-channels on the rails for mounting racks and other accessories? I can't quite tell from the video or the pictures on the website. Looks good though!

Yes it is. I will install a rack later. Will
Keep post it.

I have the EGR Rolltrac (manual version) on order (backordered), but this seems like a really good alternative. I plan to mount the Kuat Ibex to it using the t-channel system. I think I still prefer how the EGR sits inboard of the rails and lower/more flush, but this seems like it would be more supportive of things mounted in the t-channels as it is more directly supported by the bed rails. which rack are you planning to install?

 

[GigaRaptor]

Could you post some pictures? Specifically of how it sits relative to the bed rails?
