 New ARE MX = Big Disappointment = It Leaks!
MX Series : Toyota Tacoma

January 05, 2024    Posted by: Roger
I am very disappointed in the quality of this new camper shell and the dealer's service. It leaks in multiple places, and I bought it to camp in. Went back to dealer and left it there for 4 hours to be fixed. Went back to pick it up and they said it was fixed. Next rainstorm and it still leaked in multiple places. I believe at least 3 places possibly 4. Called dealer and he said he would get back to me the same afternoon - that was 3 days ago. BTW: The leaks occurred while it was parked and sitting outside during a moderate rainstorm. I can only imagine how bad it will leak going 55 MPH down the highway in a heavy rainstorm. I wish I had not bought an ARE camper shell. I paid a lot of money for a big headache. A terrible product.

 A.R.E. Cap #2
V Series : Toyota Tacoma

December 23, 2023    Posted by: Bill
I bought an A.R.E. cap for my 2005 Tacoma many years ago and got great service from it. I shopped around some for a cap for my new 2023 Tacoma, but A.R.E. still ended up being my choice based on best price, proven durability, and great looks. The cap arrived even sooner than promised and Trux Outfitters of Ithaca got it installed quickly and professionally.

 ARE cap makes my Tacoma complete
V Series : Toyota Tacoma

November 20, 2023    Posted by: Bearcat
I went with the V Series as I liked the simple, clean lines and went with sliders rather than windoors. The shape fits well and really like the single latch on the back window. The truck is much quieter while driving and I believe the carpeted interior helps deaden any outside sound. The windows slide almost too tight and the inside frame has fasteners that appear to have been screwed to the point of distorting the frame. There are some very sharp aluminum edges I will probably file down smooth so it doesn’t catch on anything. Overall very pleased with the look and function of the topper. I also got the Bed Rug and that makes the floor much nicer to move on.
