ARE Revo canopy/Desert Tan RR

[Buellsox]

Installed yesterday and love how it turned out. Went with the exact same model I had on my previous ‘19 F-150 which served me well. A.R.E. Revo with the curved back glass (no plastic duck bill out over the tailgate), front slider, and solid non-opening side windows. Some will hate the non-opening side windows, but for what I do (city living) I like the clean look of the large pane of solid tinted glass. Kind of that suv look some might say, but I dig it. Some may dislike and that’s fine. Liked it on my 150 so I knew I’d like it here on the RR.

Figured I’d post a few shots as I had a helluva time before hand finding any pics of a desert tan RR with a color matched ARE, much less anything besides a black Smartcap or similar, which I did consider. But now….im glad I returned back to my gut and went with the slick, clean look of the color matched.

SUV.... you mean the Ford Everest? lol

oddly the way the trim on the C pillar is for the Everest, I think the slider windows on my A.R.E. CX Classic look more SUV like

Hell yeah! Both look good!
Too bad they haven’t brought the Everest to the States…..Now THAT’S a good looking SUV! Nothing against the Explorer but that rig has it beat….in spades. If that were available here that’s what the wife would be driving, Period!

Nice! I like that a lot.

That's the dirtiest white truck I've ever seen though...

I love looks of the ARE REVO .
Did mine with the windows that open , in case i want to take my dogs with me I can open them up and give them some fresh air , but overall i really do like the clean I piece glass look on yours, very sharp.

It’s the frameless curved back glass on both the ARE models that really sets off this brand! You just don’t see a lot of canopies with that feature or style. Really cleans up the look from the rear where most canopies really underwhelm in the looks dept. It’s also why I like the single side panes, the frameless look is a winner to my eye. We do have a 95lb. Doberman and I thought about the side venting but the frameless windows look kinda odd with the recessed portal window that ARE offers. The framed slider style like your model looks better if a slider was a must. But we got by with our Dobie back there with just the front slider doing the work on my previous 150 so I went with the same set up and up here in the PNW we just don’t get all that hot.

BOTH look killer! Can’t go wrong with an ARE in my opinion, hence why it’s my 3rd one, plus made here in Ohio so that’s a plus!

Ohh I'd have a Everest if it was available here for sure. Ranger and Everest next to each other lol

Yeah that stupid curve in the tailgate really puts the flat glass of my old are mx on my old old 08 and my current cx classic out of place. But I paid just shy of 5g canadian tax included, and installed. the revo started at like 6500 canadian. plus the options I had, plus install. was looking at like 8g installed

Whoa! That’s salty for just for over the border pricing. It came to a tick under $3.9K out the door (installed with the keyless key fob option and an extra set of clamps for good measure) and I’m in WA State on the western side where we run at nearly 10.5% sales tax. Even at 4K usd that should equate to just over 5.6K cad.
Seems like a lot for shipping & import fees.

That kind of savings it’d be worth coming back into the US and getting the canopy and then scooting back across with it on the truck.
I actually considered doing that when I was looking hard at a color matched tan ARB Ascent canopy which isn’t available here in The States, but in The Canadian market. (It’s now available for pre-order, but only in 3 colors) I was talking back & forth with a canopy shop in British Columbia about doing just such a thing, but it came down to pricing. It was going to be just to damn expensive all said & done especially with driving up into Canada and a possible overnight. So I ultimately chose what was already familiar to me with the ARE.

Except I'm 24 hours drive from the closest boarder in Houlton Maine/ Woodstock NB. I'd have to take either an 8/9hr ferry, or a 16hr ferry then hotels, gas, etc. what I would save in going down there, I'd loose in travel. it was $3988.01 plus install, and 15% tax.
