    I'm a 2013 Civil Engineering grad but I still have to say Roll Tide haha. I grew up an Alabama fan but knew that if I wanted to be a Civil Engineer, there was no better place than Auburn. Heck, I still live here while my wife (also an Alabama fan) finishes Veterinary school. I love this town.

    Paid I think $2800 for my SnugTop Rebel with:
    Reinforced roof for 500lbs load rating (future RTT install)
    Yakima tracks and bars
    Carpeted interior
    Fold down front slider window
    Rear window lock integrated into my trucks key fob
    Dual LED lighting with a switch right by the tailgate

    It sucked parting with that much cash, but the quality of the shell appears great and I can't imagine my truck without it. I had searches going on Craigslist and eBay for months looking for a used shell, but nothing was even a close match and that gets real old after a couple months. I would buy again.

    My labor install was $100

    Awesome pic. Miss San Diego, don't recall that snow.
    Good point on searching craigslist. I got to the point of frustration, which may be a good sign that what you are looking for is high quality and folks are keeping them.

    I appreciate that man! It's all cheap mods as of now (except for the shell). Eventually gonna get around to putting some 5100's and some new coilovers.

    I'm confused by this post as well. I'm an AU grad class of '03 and '07. I think you need to move to Opelika immediately. Can't have alabama fans living in the loveliest village on the plains now. :)

    Ok back to snug tops.

    Picked up my SnugTop SuperSport on CL for $700 and had my friend spray it to match the color. Would have bought a new one if I couldn't find a used one. By far it's the best mod I did to my truck.

    They look great.....I'm having a hard time deciding if I want to get a topper or not. I have a Bakflip Tonneau and I'll be out in AZ here soon, I think I may have to break down and just get one. :)

    Got a SnugTop Rebel...like the looks of a Quicksand with a topper...new style rotary latch, dropdown front window, side sliders with screens, Headliner, dome LED, price was $2022 all inclusive with tax...one thing to mention for you guys is that they remove the front bed "crossbar" and re bed and seal it as this is a leak problem on Tacomas...
