It is getting near time for a new roof. I have a medium blown color

What is a good long lasting brand of fiberglass/asphalt shingle? Do
roofers typically charge more for a roof with a steeper slope (45
deg).

GAF has 40 year rated reflective shingles, intended to reduce heat
load. Google "GAF cool color". Not cheap though, at least not around
here.
