I originally purchased first ARE canopy for my 2014 Toyota Tundra. This review is for my second ARE canopy on my 2017 GMC Sierra 2500HD Denali. I have found the fit of this ARE canopy to be fairly accurate. The roof line feels a little short, but the installation of a rack I intend to connect to my Yakima tracks should even out the visual. The paint on this canopy is very poorly done. I have debris trapped in the paint as well as severe polishing cuts into the paint. The aluminum frame is not touched up well from the factory, so lots of exposed shiny ends on the black. Additionally, the carpet has cuts on it down to the fiberglass. ARE has been made aware of the issues and is requesting that I come back to retail location and have the top removed, crates and sent back to them for a 4-week turn around repair. Overall, I am disappointed with the purchase, but confident that ARE will make the repairs. Unfortunately, these issues are consistent with my first ARE canopy on my Tundra. That all said, I don’t think any other manufacturer would produce a higher quality product. I would likely buy another canopy again from ARE if they were the predominant manufacturer in the area, but I would also have no issue with trying another manufacturer.

Great fit. Great color matching. We got ours with the sliding rear glass with screens, Yakima roof rack, and sliding drop down cab window. Plenty of room to move around if you scoot on your butt. I can sit up with 6 inches to spare. Standing is not really possible, but this is a low profile top on a small truck. We got a rubber mat which makes moving around nicer than on the factory spray on bed liner. If you have the factory cargo management rails and tailgate extension, then be pleased to know that you have enough clearance with the cap on to move and remove the cleats and extension without problems. Overall a great accessory.

 Overland Review
A.R.E. Overland Series
OVERLAND Series : Chevy/GMC Silverado/Sierra
May 08, 2017    Posted by: Josh
I purchased the Overland for my 2500HD. My options included a Yakima roof rack with core bars, fabric liner, and an led light strip. It looks fantastic and so far I have not noticed any leaks. The paint match was dead on. The only negative part is I had my dealer order 70" cross bars to better accommodate my kayaks. However, A.R.E. sent 60" bars. It''s a pretty long drive to the dealer and I have yet to hear back about whether or not they will ship them to me.
