Can you tow and keep the cover in place while folded flat and not folded up against the cab? What is the panel dimensions when folded? Thanks...

The added height above the truck's bed rails would most likely cause clearance issues plus the front of the pin box would possibly interfere too. I have a great solution though. The Pace Edwards SwitchBlade part # 311-SWD7833 fits your 2018 Ram 2500 short bed without the Rambox and since it pulls the cover down into a canister it does not cause any interference at all.
