CX Classic Color match was off. GM Frost Tri Coat A lot of yellow compared to truck Not happy. Pet screen has large bulges on both windows due to improper installation, resulting in a terrible fit and eye sore. Save your $. After owning Thule racks, Yakima has a lot to be desired. Complicated just to remove or adjust load bars. Tailgate cap is sturdy and secured well to shell. Inside of cap is unpainted fiberglass and the outside is painted black with real rough texture. Only drawback is if you wash it, do not rub a towel across the surface to remove water. Lint from towel sticks all over cover and very difficult to remove. Wish it were a smooth finish. I ordered two handle door and am happy with the quality of handles and latches. Keys for locks are HUGE. Bottom paint to match rubber trim piece along bottom of shell is missing. Website says and shell for 2013 or newer, included. Not with mine. Overall, I am pleased with my purchase. Just wish the color was a closer match. I will take to body shop and pay to have it painted to match....

 Leaks!
CX Classic : Toyota Tacoma

I recently purchased the A.R.E. CX Classic truck 'cap' for my 2017 TRD OR. I got 'windoors' on both sides (one with a slider and one without) and the front folding/removable window. Very disappointed in the product. It leaks so much that I can't build out a permanent camper bed like I had planned. Water leaks from all the rails, and the window weepers (soaked the carpet and all my gear). I spent extra to get the Linex coating (OTR version). I really like the look, but the topper doesn't quite fit my rig. It appears the topper shifted about 1 1/2 inches back and in the process stripped the paint right off my truck bed. I tried re-adjusting it myself, but it still isn't quite right. Now the tailgate scrapes the side of the topper. Also, no quick disconnect for the lights, so I have to remove the hardwire if I ever want to remove the truck cap. WTH!

I had this custom order from a local dealer which was excellent and they called A.R.E. for me while I was a the store and we placed the order together. I only had it for a few days, but so far so good. I love the look as well and I ordered the racks at the time I ordered the Cap. I added several options to the cap as well. It wasn't cheap, but I think it adds value to my truck, versatility of use, so I am very pleased. My only regret is that I didn't order the auto lock that ties into my keys. But, otherwise, very pleased.
