Thanks for the pics. So the last panel doesn’t flip up? If you want to use the last foot of the bead what do you do, take it off completely?
Hey I was just talking to my buddy who bought a RAm RHO, he said he got a Rough country soft tonneau for $150 that has 4 crossbars in it, rolls up for full access, and locks, and he said it didn’t leak when they got poured on a few days ago (@superj hes down in corpitos so you can attest to the rain maybe?) so soon as he sends me the link I can post it here or maybe you can find it before then, but that sounds like it checks all your boxes..

I have a Rough Country soft tonneau cover and can confirm everything you were told. I have run my truck through automatic brush car washes and very little water got into the bed. Just a trickle on the drivers side. I don't see any leaks when raining. Also, the aluminum braces are arched and this makes water shed to the side and off the cover quickly. Overall, IMO, it is a very nice cover for what it costs. The link below is for 2024-2025 models. The 2026 models modified the bed rails so if you buy one make sure it fits a 2026.

I got the Gator from Realtruck for about $200 ish and does a decent job when it rains, not perfect but pretty close.Just be careful from Realtruck and get the "extra" shipping thing they offer they some how lost my package and then you have to do a whole process of getting a gift card/credit card credit sent to you to replace it.The whole process from order first time to replace took about a month.
Sorry to hear that it took so long to get your cover delivered. If you ever need anything in the future, you've got access to a dedicated RealTruck support team here in the forum. Anything from planning an upgrade, comparing products, shipping, warranty support, installation, and everything in between- we're here to help!

Feel free to DM me or email me directly at [email protected] anytime! 😉
