Hopefully, now that SMS has done this, they can do it more quickly. There was a big delay involved because of a wrong color that was sent once (Saddle-ish, I think) and Tim headed it off before it ever got to me and sent it back to SMS to correct. SMS folks did say that they were thinking of going into production on this cover (and I assume all 4 highlander covers) as they've had a lot of requests. That sure would be nice.

I've purchased this cover and an olive custom cloth cover from Tim, he's who I plan to buy any covers from in the future - very satisfied. It can take a lot of time for a special order like this, so hopefully SMS will get into the biz of producing them.

As for cost, I believe I had about $650-700 in the cover by the time it was all said and done. NOT cheap, but that is primarily because it was a special order. Still, expensive when you consider the Cheyenne Super cover I ordered was in the $250-300 range, if I recall correctly. But they just don't make these (right now), so kinda had to bite the bullet. Saved the pennies for a while to get it done.

How is yours coming along? Wish I had a big block like you!! Your interior would look about identical, wouldn't it?
Thanks for the info. My truck will look just like yours but green. I am going to run this original cover until I can afford a new one. I have made no progress on the truck but I did just put a new motor in the burb. I have been thinking of putting a highlander interior in the burb as well.
