Sun Shade

[warcat]

Can anyone recommend a good sun shade at a reasonable price? My dealer quoted me $350 for two different ones he carries (both metal). Does that sound about the going rate? I'm definitely going to need one for the hot Texas summer, which will be starting within a month or two...

That price sounds about right, the only regret I had was waiting until the 2nd summer to get mine! I have also added worklights to mine.

$350 is the going rate from what I've seen.

Yep, that sounds about right, if it's a Wells Ag Company canopy or as good as a Wells Ag canopy.

I paid $345 last spring for an aluminum diamond plate canopy. It has a layer of insulation and a rugged steel angle mount that lights attach to real easy. It is hard for limbs to hurt it and there is no paint to fade. It is an AAR canopy. I can ask my dealer where he buys them from if you want one.

Brandi,
Please ask your dealer for the information. I am interested in getting one.
Thanks

That AAR canopy sure does look like a Wells Ag canopy. With the Wells Ag canopy, I was offered the choice of steel painted to match the tractor, or unpainted diamond plate aluminum; same price either way at that time.

Bird,
Morning! I don't know. It might be. I will find out and get back here with more details for WeldingisFun and the rest of us.

Brandi, that's very interesting. Did you notice where the Perry Company is located? Very close to my Kubota dealer in Waco, and they don't say they "made" that canopy; only that they sell them. Wells Ag company, that actually makes canopies, is on the northbound service road of I-35 in Elm Mott, which is just north of Waco. I think I'd bet on the Aardvark canopy being made for them by Wells Ag, but if they're not one and the same, at least I think you'd have a hard time finding a better one than either of those.
