Getting my future TOAD ready. Cargo Glide will make access to everything in bed really nice. A.R.E. Topper fit and finish is awesome. Very happy!

Cargo Glide and a topper look like what I'm looking for. My truck will start out as my wife's grocery getter for a few years before I get it. That setup is practical without going overboard with overlanding and offroad gear that I won't use much for a while. Would you mind sharing how much the Cargo Glide cost? What are the capacities of the regular and HD?

Did not get a breakdown on prices. Total cost was $3000 plus tax. I got the pet screens, front slider window, 12V LED light, and carpet interior. I figure it was about $1200 for CargoGlide and $1800 for Cap. Installation was included and took them a whole day. My Capacity was 1000#. You could get a 1200# and 1500# one also. You will never have that much in the bed. Biggest plus on the HD is it comes out 100% from the bed. My 1000# comes out only 70%. Not a big deal. You can still reach pretty easily. Price on the HD almost doubles too.

I think that this is an awesome setup- I’ve never had a truck with a topper before but could really use the space from time to time. Do you think it is realistic to install a hoist in the garage and take this on and off periodically- or would that be more of a pain than it is worth? Also- does the hardtop still come off easily? Thanks!

You could take it off with hoist. Would need to make a quick disconnect for the 12V light, and would need help. It's 130 pounds. I never have my hardtop off, but yes you could remove it still.

How are you liking the Cargoglide after a couple months? I’m thinking about going that route.

It's great. I wouldn't own a topper without one. Easy access to the entire bed contents is key for me. Very solid construction. Definitely recommend.

Sweet set-up! Do you know if the CX topper works with a soft top?
