    Found a used MX-Series that I'm considering purchasing on Thursday. I'll be honest, from an aesthetic point of view it's not my favorite looking topper, although sometimes I think it looks cool.

    The used market for toppers is tough out here in Colorado (especially if you're trying to color match), so I kinda have to take what I can get.

    Thanks!

    P.S. - that's just a reference photo for those of you that don't know what it looks like :)

    I have the X-Series (now discontinued) and honestly regret not getting the MX for the additional headroom.

    Nothing major. -3rd Gen OR suspension swap. -Trailer light plug relocation.
    Look at the molding around the bottom edge of the topper. Especially between the cab and the topper and the edges by the door. I bought one new and it started to peel. Otherwise I love the shell, both the look and the extra head room. I installed a platform and can almost sit fully up right inside.

    I like the look of the lower profile.
    I like the room inside much more.
    I've had two shells, both raised and in person vs pics I think they look kool.
