So, I'm leaving Des Moines soon with a new RCSB.

Anyone know of a shell warehouse/outlet mall I should hit on my way back to VA?

I see Leer factory in Indiana - do they retail?

 

The chances of them having a cap the model and color you want are virtually zero.

You have to order what you want. I just went through this with my Leer 100XR I got for my 2023. And went through this with my 2015 and 2005 trucks too.

If you want your new truck to look like crap and have a mismatched top, or your truck is white, then you might get lucky and find one.

The only inventory of any kind dealers usually have is demos for the showroom and used caps people sell back or trade in. You won't likely find one for a 2021+ truck even used.

 

I thought I wanted a cap, but needed something real quick. We had Son 2.0 to move, in-law stuff to move 1000 miles all within the first month.

So I bought a cheap roll up tonneau, and haven't yet ordered the cap. No regrets. YMMV.

 

Even special order Leer Oxford White for Ford trucks is a terrible match, just a heads up if you're picky..

 

I had both a Leer 100XR and the Century equivalent of 100XR for my last two trucks (2005/2015), both were oxford white and color was a great match for both.

My current truck is Atlas Blue and I was REALLY worried about color match. And it came out great.

BUT... I found after I got it home there's a paint bubble / blister and in order to fix it, they have to send it back and completely re-paint it. Which they will do for free, but i'm going to have about a month of not having it, which kind of sucks for what I use the truck for. And i'm worried about them re-painting it the color somehow not matching the second time.

My dad's last truck was Stone Grey and he sent his Leer back twice because the color match was awful, they ended up giving him some money back because he was so unhappy with the color.

 

yeah I should have said that was my experience ordering on the west coast my wait was about a month for 2020. Ford has two different numbers for Oxford white I don't know if that had anything to do with it but definitely a mismatch on my truck.

 

The paint code is on the doorjam sticker, did you give them the paint code or just the color name? Maybe that's what did it.

I'm a little pissed that my remedy for my paint defect (the bubble/blister) is to have to send it back to them to repaint, vs sending me a new one. So I will be without the topper for a month.
