My A.R.E. color match with carpet and 12V light inside, slider cab window, and pet screens was $1800. Just got it on.

Love that look, I can't seem to get a quote for under $2300 for the A.R.E Classic. If I could get it around $1800 I would be ordering it now.

I'm interested in a Cap, but have to wait, hoping pricing will come down as they sell more of them.

I am estimating the topper price because it was all quoted together. I got the Cargo Glide installed on the same deal. Cargo Glide price was $1221, so maybe it had a discount . Anyway I checked 5 different ARE dealers within 70 miles of my house and all the rest were $400 to $800 more for same set up.

That is a fantastic set up. I only know of 2 A.R.E. dealers with in 100 miles of me and I think that is hurting my hopes for a good price.

Looks great. Ordered the same one last week with the roof rack on it. I think the front is like that because if you have the soft top you need to be able to get in there to seat the rear window in the channel.
I’m excited to get mine and then get an RTT up top.

Thanks for the pics. Love how clean the lines are. Best looking cap I’ve seen. I’m a bit confused. Do the side windows open?

I just got a new quote from my local dealer...looks like I am going to have to order one. They have it around $1950 after taxes.

gap is much better. Wish the squared up the back.
I was about to rationalize that the leer has the gap to prevent smacking the top... but the ARE gap is way better. Maybe snugtop can combine the better parts of both.

2020 Overland with non-color match Freedom hardtop. Crossed my fingers and set fire to a LARGE bag of cash to get this ARE top. Finish is factory ARE bedliner-ish color/coating option; I've very pleased with how it turned out. Functionality increase make me feel better about the loss of the three-stacked-block profile...

Somebody needs to measure a short-bed Tacoma I bet they are close-ish.
I would really prefer a custom-built old-school aluminum 'camper shell' tho - would look clunky/utilitarian/old man? Bring it on :like:

I see this post has a few months under it and maybe more has come out on toppers. I know there is a tonneau cover for the Gladiator that cross references with the Chevy Colorado. The dimensions and lines are the same . The only "off" thing is where the rear corners are more rounded on the Colorado than how the Gladiator should be or vice-versa.

Hmmm...already discussed.
