Aluminum cap for Titans?

[DeerMobile]

I will be in the market very shortly for a cap for my Crew Titan. I know Leer and ARE already make fiberglass caps specifically for the Titan. Now I know that a glass cap would really "set my truck off" and "make it look like an SUV" (which I could care less about!). I'll be FREQUENTLY taking the cap off so the much lighter weight of an aluminum model is preferred as I'll usually have to take it off myself. Has anyone run across an aluminum cap for the Titan? I'm curious to see how the cap makers will deal with the non-straight top of the tailgate and how the rear glass lift lid will seal. The ones I've seen so far merely sweep down on top of the plastic cover on the top of the tailgate.

do you have a garage that the titan fits into?

If so, I say get a nice fiberglass cap (Because they're so much nicer than aluminum, anyway) and rig up a hoist system in the garage so it's easy to remove, replace, and store the cap.

Look at the DCU series ARE. You can customize to almost anything. Even
spec out the thickness of the aluminum on the sides. Don't know anything
about the tailgate issues as I removed the gate and use the double doors
of the canopy.

ltsportcover.com They make an aluminum cover and they will supposedly have one for the Titan any day now. I popped them an email yesterday to ask how long but i havent heard anything back from them yet. I will post as soon as i do. It's a really light cover, easy to take off , it's strong and i think it looks good too.
