RealTruck, a leading American manufacturer of aftermarket truck accessories, has expanded its BAKFlip MX4 tonneau cover lineup with the introduction of the BAKFlip MX4 EZ-Lift — a folding truck bed cover engineered with a first-of-its-kind oversized paddle handle and a patented auto-latch system.
The BAKFlip MX4 EZ-Lift is equipped with various high-performance design elements. The auto-latch system, for one, reduces the lifting force required to open the cover to just 10.5 pounds compared to nearly 30 pounds on conventional models. The folding truck bed cover builds upon the proven MX4 platform, which is already known for its premium-grade multi-layer aluminum construction, high-density core, and advanced edge-to-edge sealing.
The BAKFlip MX4 EZ-Lift joins the existing MX4 and MX4 TS variants to offer truck owners more options depending on whether they prioritize rack compatibility or enhanced ease of use.
