Most every pickup cap on the market is a rectangular-shaped box. Then there’s the Aero X from Michigan Vehicle Solutions. Clearly designed more for style than practicality, the molded composite top has glass side windows plus a lockable louvered rear window that opens wide for loading and unloading cargo. Aero X also provides protection from the sun while ensuring an unobstructed rear view. It’s available for 2015 and newer Ford F-150 and Ram pickups with 5.5- or 6.5-foot beds, however the company says it will soon add heavy-duty and midsize Ford trucks (Ranger) as well as Chevrolet, GMC and Toyota pickups. Pricing starts at $3,500, including matched paint finishes. Get full details at www.mivehiclesolutions.com.
