METAL ROOFING, how to find/get the best but not pay more than for asphalt shingles.?

Question by x: METAL ROOFING, how to find/get the best but not pay more than for asphalt shingles.?
A lot of shingles that are architectural rated, cost out of the wazoo. I was wondering if I could get someone (and are commercial builders the best) to put on a metal roof for about the same cost as a good asphalt roof? I hear it takes less skill, and less time, and the materials don't really cost that much more...that it's just that metal is "in" now that is making it so much more costly.

Transporting water equipment like canoes or kayaks while on a holiday is not an easy task. Kayak racks and canoe racks offer cost effective way to carry boats with a car, van, wagon or SUV. For carrying boats the only requirement is a base rack system. Using sport racks on the roof of the car is a better option than pulling a sport trailer with the car.
