    I have had all 3 over the years, Leer ,ARE,Snugtop. You can have issues with any of them. A good dealer/installer is key, good luck.

    +1 on good dealer install. I've had ARE and Leer. You can have problems with both just like any brand. Around $1800 to $2000. I have found that cap dealers don't deal like car dealers. Both ARE and Leer always have coupons on their web site. I got a free headliner which I recommend because the inside is just painted raw fiberglass, rough and dusty.

    Local dealer says that Leer and Century are same thing, same mfg. line, different stickers. ARI seems to have the most quality issues, but I don't have either yet, just what I have gleaned from MANY hours of research. I'm leaning toward a SnugTop or Century, unless I end up with a BakFlip Tonneau cover...so many questions...

    Pulled the trigger on a SnugTop today. I am SO glad I finally made a decision. That was an ordeal, too many choices. I decided against the tonneau cover because when I measured the first two items that had to go in the bed, they were BOTH too high to fit under the thing without leaving some of it out in the world. Easy choice.
