I have to admit upfront that I typically don't spend this much on tonneau covers. For the last 3 trucks I just bought $250-$300 soft roll-up style tonneau covers, but this time I splurged and went with the BAK Revolver X4s Tonneau Cover. It's almost like a hybrid between soft vs hard and roll-up vs retractable. As promised, here's a link to purchase the BAK Revolver X4s Tonneau Cover (as an affiliate I earn commission from qualifying purchases):

The big question is, does spending more $$ deliver a better tonneau cover in the end? I attempt to answer this question as I install and review the BAK Revolver X4s Tonneau Cover.

  • Danged Beautiful truck, I have a similar color of Grey on my Z71 GMC Sierra but I went with a Leer Topper over a flat cover.
  • Had mine on my 2019 tundra from the start, great cover, secure , kept my gear dry and still looks good after 5 years.

    Just purchased this for a 2023 RAM Rebel 1500 $1300 inc tax and delivery. I am waiting on delivery and installing it and for the money I have serious expectations. With the $$ of a truck these days I was not going with a lesser tonneau this one fitted the bill. I have watched every YouTube on it regardless of truck. I think I have made the right choice considering the 5 year warranty and reviews. Time will tell. Thank you for your review.

    The reason I bought this cover is because of the aluminum construction. My advice is to use where the rubber is underneath so you don't pinch your fingers. The only problem I have had is securing the rubber pieces by the tailgate. They were replaced once by BAK and I now have glued them in place. I now have a 5th wheel and visibility is great. Thanks for reviewing and confirming I made the right purchase.

    I have had the BAK revolver for over a year. Works great. No problems.
  • FYI. I had the same lump on my cover (same truck) and they deemed it defective. Sending me a brand new kit. Reach out to their support.
  • @mikemurray1815
    I like it. I have the bak flip but it has its disadvantages, like completely blocking the rear window when it's open 😊
  • @howardc8438
    Awesome cover. Sturdy and well made. No issue with it. Like the fact that you can simply roll it up, still have your rear view window unblocked and have full access to your bed.

    Thanks for your review. I too have the Truxedo Trucksport Tonneau cover. I have been using it for a few years and put it to the test (two tropical storms and a hurricane). It has never leaked. You are right that it not as secure as the hard cover style but you can't beat the price point IMO...
  • @timfast8306
    I really like mine. I also have minor leaking around the tailgate but thats it.

    Had the same one on my AT4 for a little over a year. No complaints. Getting it on the Carbon Pro bed was a bit more challenging, but it works.
  • Truck looks great. Looking at those as well. I have the hardcover BAK BAKFLIP MX4 hardcover on a shortbed f150. BAk does a nice job with materials and finish. No problems other than a few broken plastic parts that BAK provides a kit to repair. Obviously, others have similar issues when a kit provides the exact parts that break. Despite a few minor issues that don't affect performance, I would buy mine again. It has held up well in the Houston heat and rain these last 3.5 years. I use frequently with partial loads where I find it handy to only unfold one or two panels. Also with a load sticking over the tailgate such as long lumber, you can lay the last panel atop the load. I have found this partial panel use so handy I would not purchase one without that ability. This one was about a grand pre covid and inflation pricing. Same cover is now about 200 more at 1200. Looks like yours has a better water seal and very flush. I also like the ability to see out the rear glass when rolled up...the panels block it.

    Just installed one today in a 2022 F250 8,2bed. It was pretty easy!
  • Sad to see they dont offer one for my 1992 long box f150 😢. Really wanted one

    Great video! I think it’s the best video out there covering the X4s. I’ve been doing my research on which cover is best for my needs, and I’m leaning towards this one. My only concern is the loss of width at the top of the bed rails. I have a 2024 GMC AT4 and tow a 5th wheel. I’m curious if the rails of the cover are going to impede with the pin box of trailer when turning 90 degrees. Do you happen to know the width between the rails of the cover? This measurement would help me tremendously. Thank you in advance
  • @ibegambit
    Great video! I'm waiting on my Bak Revolver X4S to be delivered for my '24 GMC Sierra 1500. What Dewalt tool box are you using? Thanks!

    I had the original Revolver and the X2. Not replacing the X2 with another BAk product. Both leaked. Never leave them open if snow is expected (mine froze solid and I couldn't close it.) I had leaks on both, not bad but for a grand....The rails are thin and the powder coat/paint comes off after 2-3 years. The original had major design flaws X2 improved, but still had issues. I saw the X4 on a friends new Ram. the plastic tabs in the back were missing after 3 weeks and the vinyl looks thinner than before. I see there are now knockoffs for half price.
