thanks
Looks like the Bakflip G2 and the F1 are now listed for the '15's. The model number for the '15 F1 is different than that for the '14.

I don't have any experience with any of them, so I have been researching them as well. Based on what I've been learning, it looks like I will be ordering the Peragon.

Anyone have a BAK flip fibermax. I think I may go with that.

I am going with the Peragon as well.

I had the BakFlip F1 on a Raptor and although it was awesome closed, I hated how it blocked the back window when it was folded up.

Just checked out the Peragon website. I like the way the panels drop into the bed and the fact that unlike the Bakflip, you don't have to lift the tonneau in order to close the tailgate. This will be a nice feature with the auto tailgate release.

Only thing I'm not crazy about is that the rails sit up an inch higher than the bed side walls. Wish it was more flush like the Bakflip.

Yeah, I agree with the previous poster... that Peragon is def. nice and makes for a tough choice between that and a bakflip (not sure which model I'd get though.
One thing I don't nec. like by the way it looks... if you have anything in the very front of the bed, how do you open the cover since it folds/flips into that area?
At least with the bakflip it opens entirely above the bed and in turn the bed could be full to the brim and it still open.

I purchased the Bakflip F1 when I ordered my FX4 in 2011 and haven't look back since... LOVE IT. If I had to I would pickup another one.. that's my .02 cents

To close the loop. Orders the BAK flip fibermax yesterday and very happy with decision. Biggest factors were low profile and looks. Pumped about this entire thing! Counting days now!

After hearing about it for the first time on this thread, and doing some research, I am very impressed with the Peragon. That's the route I'm likely going to go on the new truck.
