    How do the windows in the side help with getting things in and out at night?

    I believe he was attempting to make 2 separate points on that one. 1) getting stuff in and out because they are easily opened or removed and 2) driving at night. Difference between driving a panel van or a church van at night. Having the windows makes it a lot easier to see around, especially in traffic.

    I think #2 is only really an issue on the regular cab. The double canband access cab have back side windows. I can't turn my head backward enough to see out of a window on the side my topper.

    I guess that shows different driving styles, because I feel like I am constantly looking out mine. But I sm pretty much sitting in the back seat while I driving so I guess they act as the rear doors would for most people. Hadn't really given it much thought.

    One of the things i hated about my cap, was that the windows were so tinted, couldn't really see anything behind me at night unless i used my side mirrors. And if it was raining hard, fahgetaboutit

    I thought we were comparing the Softopper without windows to a Bestop Supertop with windows. You can still roll up the side of the Softopper to let more light in.

    I've actually stopped at a stop sign and caught myself looking both ways out of the rear windows. Then realizing that I should probably lean forward a bit.

    I don't think anyone else even took that option. I know I didn't. I was solely comparing windows in to sides down... hmmm.

    The Softopper still has a front and back window to see out of.

    No gangsta lean for me. And the kid sits behind the passenger seat. Only way he is fitting.
