Bed cover rails and Fifth Wheel Towing

I'll be towing my fifth wheel trailer with the Reese Goose Box. The bed cover I'm looking at for my TV has a width of 59" between the rails. I'm wondering if this is going to be too restrictive for turning. Any thoughts?

Having never measured between my bed rails, not sure how much you are loosing, but 59" sounds a bit tight.
The rails for my roll-up bed cover sit on top of the pickup bed rails so they are the same width as the bed, just about 1" taller.

ON EDIT: Just measured distance between bed rails at Tailgate 62".
