best truck cap/shell maker?

Looks nice but I'm trying to avoid fiberglass. It off-gasses... and I pity the people who make those things, the chemicals are really nasty.

"Wump" sez:

Well, about the only thing left is Gemtop ... but they're kinda fugly.

AGreed. Snugtop is top notch!

Buy one already made. This should make you feel better.

If you buy aluminum, all those folks at the aluminum smelter will have to breath off gasses and all the displaced earthworms whos home were destroyed digging for aluminum! Actually, the only off gassing is...

Do they off gass?

If it's a Fiberglass shell, the shell will off-gas a little until the poleyester resins and the paint finishes curing, a month or two at the outside. Just leave the shell's windows cracked open for ventilation, and don't camp in the back for the first couple months, and there should be no health hazard to worry about.

Unless you have multiple sensitivity disease of course, in which case you're going to have to build a Ted Shack (I'm not even going to guess at the spelling of his last name - the Unabomber guy) in rural Nebraska and live an ascetic lifestyle - EVERYTHING we make or use in our modern society outgasses something, at least for a while... But GemTop's big thing is welded steel and aluminum framed and skinned shells, no outgassing except for the paint. A lot stronger, a little more secure, and a lot more expensive.
