About to order a CX Classic in Black with the following options

  • Aluminum Framed Half Slider Side Windows
  • Aluminum Framed Single T Door Rear Door
  • Dark Gray Headliner Interior Carpet
  • 12V LED Dome Light & Dual Rope Lights Interior Light Option
  • Prop Switch For 12V LED Dome Light & Dual Rope Lights Prop Switch
  • Roof rack tracks

Stuck on the Front Cap Option as I was going to stick with the keep it simple version of the
Aluminum Framed Picture Window option due to all my kids and the nonsense they create, but the dealer mentioned that it is a tight fit and there was no easy way to clean the Gladiator's Back Window or the Front Cap's window unless I went with the fold down window option.

Any input from experience?

Just picked up mine yesterday. Took about 3 weeks from the time I ordered until delivery/install. Got the non-slider side window/doors. Can reach anywhere in the bed without having to climb in through the back. Love it.

What options did you get and if you don't mind what was the final cost.
Thanks

For anyone reading this this late in the game, the gull wing side windows are very nice to have. Allowing full access to the bed.

The light that comes in them is a worthless piece of garbage, you're going to want to upgrade that.

I added lighting and a 2/3 deck in mine as well as a 17 gallon fuel tank

Looks GREAT! My Gladiator is the same colors. I have been holding off ordering, because I was hoping to match the color AND the texture of the black top. Which option did you go with for Topper Color? It looks really close. I saw one with the OTR, but it looked gray on my truck. Matte Black paint is another option. Also, do you have any other pics, like side view? Thanks

Is that the OTR finish? Looks great on your truck.

Just ordered mine- Gobi color matched, single led strip with the prop switch, outdoorsman windows, sliding front window, dual locks in the rear. Pretty excited, but I hope it doesn’t take the 12 weeks they projected

It was almost a dealbreaker for me- one of the vendors I was going through insisted that ARE would not build that size cap (5’3” gladiator bed) with the outdoorsman windows. I was calling off the purchase and looking at other caps, but decided to call another vendor the next state over. They assured me by calling ARE themselves, and confirming what you all already knew.

I really wonder what source gave the first vendor that information, but I’m glad it wasn’t true. I won’t be letting them know their error
