For what I can see so far we're looking at like $3K for a stupid cap! When did they get so expensive! damn
I gotta find one without windows. That link you gave me, Biker has nice stuff but they're all with windows. I need to keep prying eyes from seeing so much expensive equipment. Bands get their shit stolen all the time. I have seen caps around here on trucks with matching paint, so I have to see if I can get one of them to stop and talk to me when I see them. Find out where he / they got it.

They got expensive for sure. Double walled, insulated, carpeted. Decent mat in the bad, and away you go. I used to do that for camping, just pull up, sleep in the back of the truck.
This model says you can get it with solid sides http://www.snugtop.com/product/rebel
Probably have to black out the back window really well.
Then there are ones like https://www.4are.com/product/commercial_aluminum/gallery.php More of a workingmans type

Straight cab height aluminum cap and is available with a no window option and metal covered rear door option.

SHE'S HERE! She's gorgeous and for once she's all Matt's!
The thing is a rocket. Gorgeous and the ONLY disappointment is the back seat. Seats flip up instead of folding into a flat platform like the old truck. ONE side (passenger) folds down to access the garbage scissor jack they provide.
Shark fin on top needs to go and I'll remedy that toot-sweet.
Didn't have time last night to set up all the goodies inside and I'll be utterly enjoying the seat memory. I am able to turn off that insane auto on/off feature where the engine cuts off when you're stopped.
I have not driven it yet. Today will be the day for that as it's rainy and I need to hit DMV today.
OH and it does have a proper cold air intake! Thank you Ford.
