i want a topper with a ladder/kayak rack.
one with side doors would also be cool.

the second one looks pretty cool.

I voted #3 and see i'm the only one lol

Less moving parts = less parts that can tear or break.

Plus i'm not a fan of the hidious ladder racks, why bother buying a stylish camper shell if you're only going to ruin it with that crap.

I also vote for #3 I like the fact that the side window is exactly 2 sections each of the same size.

#1, if i had to choose a camper shell it would be one like the one i have now, its got the raised section but its not so tall it would look retarted. actually the one i have now looks alot like #1 awsome for camping

but i hate the blind spots it creates out the back, and its difficult to access the front of the bed (for me at least). so keep that in mind when you buy one. also, i would run the weatherstripping on the cap and not the truck bed, makes it much easyer to take it on and off whenever you want.

i think i saw a universal one in my JCwhitny truck cataloge that looked like it would work... actually would look very cool if you mount some lights off of it over the cab!
