So I have a dumb question. I am browsing tonneau covers and am curious if there are any that retains the factory bed rails system? I am getting conflicting information and just trying to get some clarity on what type/brand allows me to keep the bed rails for versatility when the cover is open.

The Extang Solid Fold ALX I have does a good job of only using minor amounts of the factory tracks.

Easy to install, and really easy to remove if you need the whole bed.

See https://realtruck.com/p/extang-solid-fold-alx-tonneau-cover/v/toyota/tacoma/2024/?z=1739416072802

I took some photos after I installed it if needed.

Factory Toyota cover retains full use of rails by using mounting brackets behind the rails leaving the rails in front for full access. Most other covers I have seen have brackets that use the rails to anchor the top down. The space used is minimal by the mounting brackets.

My Bakflip F1 leaves plenty of access to the tie downs on my rails. The last version required relocating the rails which wasn’t too big of a deal.

My Pace Edward’s retractable tonneau uses the bed rails as the anchor to the truck. I still use an OEM bed divider on the rails, though had to modify it slightly to avoid interference with the tonneau.
