    Looks like it is in good shape. High for a used shell, but more than very fair for a new one.

    That's a good deal, jump. A new one is going to run you $2K +.

    I paid $700 for mine. I've seen them go for $500 recently. I think it's a bit high.

    If in good shape take it! You know how long I hunted for a long bed white topper? Months. Check window functions, door latches, etc.

    Paid $2.4k for a new one!

    Seems like a lot for that shell. No carpet inside would be a no go for me. I bought my current ARE CX for 485 and it came carpeted and with a Yakima roof rack. I'm actually picking up another one because it's color matched, same make and options minus rack for 300. Obviously it depends on the area but I would keep looking.

    Yes
    You need to find out if it is off of a double cab or access cab vs a single cab. The back of your single cab has a different shape than a D.C. or AC...it will fit on your bed but the curve against the back of the cab will not match if it is from a D.C. Or AC

    Thanks for the feed back all y'all. I have verified it came off a regular cab Tacoma so it's a match for me. Seller mentioned he'd take a reasonable offer and has another interested person looking tomorrow. I'm going to shoot for less and hopefully a fair price can be agreed
