New taco prospect

I'm in the market to buy my first taco 00-04 reg cab 2wd, but I'm trying to find the best deal on a camper shell for it, before I buy one so I can squeeze it all in my budget.

I do traveling maintenance work for medical buildings and need a shell to keep tools secured and dry. But I'm on a budget as well. I'd like to get a color matched she'll for ~$1000 but not sure if that is even reasonable.

Seems like leer, century, ATC, and ARE are the most common brands.

Thanks,
Joshua

 

Welcome to TW , seems you are torn between a 1st gen & a 2nd gen gotta pick one & go from there....

(unless you have the pockets for both)

 

Just a noob mistake 04 or older probably.

 

You can definitely find a good shell for that price, esp if you keep your eyes peeled for a used one...they typically go for much less than new

 

Welcome!

 

Welcome!Time and patience and you'll get the rig you truly want!
