    Mind me asking what you paid?? This is the one I've been looking at.
    I had the Rebel on my 08 and really like the fit and finish of the Snugtop

    Please more pics. I am seriously looking at that for mine. And if you don't mind, would you measure from bed to inside top of cap?

    Snugtop has the fold down front window, prolock, and the prolock remote "free" until the end of the month.

    Not the best picture but after a year of looking I decided to go with the Leer
    100XQ, it’s a perfect colour match, fit and finish are 100% best I’ve ever had on a truck.
    Not the best picture but there it is.

    If you are cheap like me, you can always look for the $500 craigslist special. Love the aluminum for taking it on and off, sadly it wrecks my gas mileage.

    Also just got the V series. Any thoughts on a good fitting shell roof rack for it?

    I have a V-series A.R.E. shell (the standard cab-high version). Would you say the rack mountain area is too small on this one too?

    I had the Thule tracks in my shell and used a pretty basic Yakima Core Bar setup while I had the truck. It served me well for hauling 2 kayaks or a basket, but not so great for scoring internet envy. I always wanted a prinsu-type setup, but glad I didn't as it would have been overkill for my needs.

    I’m not familiar with that shell but It looks like most cab height ones would work well with the prinsu rack, I guess you’ll just have to measure it out.
