Which Tri-fold hard Tonneau cover is best?

[kap]

Trying to decide which to go with for my 2022 Gladiator.

a. Rugged Ridge, Armis Hard Folding with Line-X Bed Cover
b. Mopar, Tonneau Cover, Hard Tri-Fold
c. MX4 Hard Folding Truck Bed Tonneau Cover

Or, are there better options or alternatives?

Thanks!

my first post btw

I went with the Mopar cover mainly because I was able to order it as part of the purchase price with the dealer installing it as part of the deal. Now if it will just come in.

I have the rugged ridge line-x. It's been a couple of years now and I like it. The line-x still looks brand new. I put 303 on the rubber and aluminum. It has two prop rods that will hold it up, and you can strap it down half way folded... You can use the clips for the straps (for halfway folding) at the top where you can rig up a trail trash bag. That worked great for me at the Rubicon Trail, and the line-x is tough and rough, so, there was no movement. I would buy it again. Here is a few pics:

Thanks for sharing this. This looks incredible. I think I'll go with it.

True, I should have probably purchased it when I got the car so they could add it to my payments. Would love to see how it looks. Can you share pics when it arrives? Tough to find pics online.

We have the mopar and I do not like it.

What do you want to see on the pictures?

Also I hate that the last fold does not secure in the upright, so when driving the last segment has to be always down.

How come?

Ours seems a bit wobbly where it is attached to the bed. Also it does leak in some locations, not a lot but it does and collects stuff in the rails.

It opens so so. I open it most of the time on the opposite side of were the pull tab is because it works better.

If you like to see specifics, happy to go out and take pics

The Mopar one was on my rig when I bought it.

Function and sealing are great.

The only knock is that it does not have any type of prop rod to hold when all sections are folded up. It would essentially lean against the back of the roof.

Sounds like yours needs to be adjusted. Mine came from the factory perfect with no leaks and great fitment.
Then I got the bed line-x'ed and they had to remove the cover and put it back on. They put it back on so bad my tailgate would hardly latch and it leaked like a sieve.
I adjusted it once and it fit damn near perfect again. I need to adjust it slightly again to get back to perfect but it is so close it's low priority.

The rugged ridge is damn near identical except for the prop rods which I do wish I had with the Mopar. I've actually been looking at trying to replicate it.

Will do.

the ability to stand the last section on end allowing for full length use of the bed is the only functionality I don't have but really miss.
purchased the rough country tri fold and should have purchased the Rugged ridge Armis

I have the undercover flex with line-x. Probably the same as the rugged ridge, and it's already falling apart after a year. I'd probably just go for a cheap roll up if I could go back.

I will try to see what I can adjust.

If you do replicate the rods please do share and give us a knock

I bought the Gator trifold tonneau cover and I'm very happy with it. Amazon $209...
