Reply to: RE>Fiberglass bed lids
I've got the fiberglass "Cargo Cover" from Century of Elkhart, Indiana. It
looks sharp and I like it a lot. It's painted the same color as the truck
(Clairet Red) and opens like a big trunk. Really great is the fact that you
can access your gear all the way up in front of the bed without climbing in.
Locks and secures your stuff, and keeps it dry. It is super strong, with the
same honey comb fiberglass construction as their regular caps. The Dakota cap
weighs approximately 65 lbs., so it is easy and quick to remove and store
(total height is about 4 inches). The cap is mounted to a frame, which is
held to the bed with 6 standard cap clamps.
I bought mine from Yankee Custom Caps of Tewksbury, Massachusetts. I paid
$525 installed, plus tax. I'll look for the phone number of Century so you
can locate a dealer near you.
