Haha Oh I did Its up in the gas cap area. And I actually went through and cleaned everything out pretty quick. No water damage inside, and cleaned the doors out too.

Alos, I live in FL....the frame rust will occur from our ocean spray before that impacts it lol

I used some rustoleum professional grade coating when I welded my sliders on, that stuff is great for frame coating. Might be a good idea while the frame is new and rust free...

Touche, I will probably knock that out this weekend. If it ever stops raining >_< Already hit my cab mount chop with rustoleum. Ill make sure to do the slider area as well when that time comes. The wife hates that I did the truck like that...but she got to drive it out of that mess so she wasn't too mad

It works great.

On a side note. I did some camping this weekend and we got quite a bit of rain. The RTT kept us nice and dry. Now I'm just waiting for the tent itself to dry.

Friday night I was at the beach getting hit with 20 knot winds. The RTT held up great. My only compliant is the noise from all the zippers shaking around. I had to roll up some tissue and stuff it in my ears so I could fall asleep. Lol.

I set my tent as far back as possible and even with a side flip I can have all my window poles setup

It was too cold to have the windows open

I personally would rather have the weight forward of the axle... not that it's a lot... just effects handling less

How does your setup tow with the enclosed and RTT on the roof? Looking to haul my RZR to the dunes in a month and was curious on how badly the drag affected towing.
