    Leaning toward these, what do you think? I have stared at all of them and think these look more truck like. Had an even taller cap on my old F-250. Think I like the ARE over the Leer, but not getting response for quote from local dealer through Leer web site. Leer on top.

    It is really personal choice, they are very similar in shape. BTW this is my favorite style, my previous two trucks had the similar Snugtop Highliner that I just loved. The extra headroom as I crawled or stood hunched over made a big difference in comfort. I remember while making up my mind on my last truck, that Leer was seen as 'lower end' but what I am seeing now from them looks much improved. You might want to look at what options they have as that might favor one vs the other. I was bummed when I couldn't get another Highliner on my current truck as it would have been too tall for the work parking structure.

    I looked at both of these. I would like a mid rise in the future. Got an ARE Z used for now. Figure I can get my money back out of it when I am ready to upgrade. I like my Leer dealer better, but ...you can get the ARE with a single handle rather than dual. I like the looks of the Leer a little better as to how it sits on the truck. I think I may prefer the snugtop over both for the rear door looks though I haven't looked at one in person. I guess what I am saying is....seems like there is lots of personal preference in what decision you make. I do like the door hardware better on the ARE also.

    Double handle kills it for me. That’s a royal pain when you go in and out all day
