Well im going to work this morning and a guy i see every day that has the same truck as me same color and all but differnt year pulls up to the light accross from me and has a new can back top on his truck but it was Black...now the funny thing is while i was out on a job today i saw another ranger (green) with with on too and i thought to my self wow 2 trucks that have a top like mine in one day thats weird.... well as im leavein work i saw another ranger yea number 3 it was also green but had a tan can back top on....What is going on? to see 3 trucks in one day with a can back top. Must be getting populair thing to have now...to this day i have never seen them on but 2 trucks besides mine....just thought it was really weird!

almost like a tent, deviousfred has one on his truck, looks pretty.

they became popular after a episode of TRUCKS, like many parts have, when they threw it on a fullsoze truck, along with many other things.

The wheels are PS but the Can Back is not. That was take from GE where is asking about wheels, that is actually his truck. I saw it a few days ago.

Yea, there pretty sweet, except for the fact that it would take atleast 3 months to get one.

Can-Back is rumored to be redoing their manufactoring process...

I thought of getting one at one point, but decided against it.
