    That looks to me, like it is back to far. I like the contrast though.

    Been looking into a Softopper as an option, definitely see the benefits of the versatility in a great product. In looking into options I came across a post via Bestop’s social media. Not sure what this means, so gonna make an inquiry with Bestop to see if they have acquired Softopper. Either way, definitely sold on the Softopper, as feedback regarding use, fit, finish, and durability has been pretty awesome.


    “It’s not official til' its Facebook official.
    From all of us here at Bestop, we would like to officially welcome Softopper to the Bestop Premium Accessories Group family!

    “The light-duty pickup truck market is booming, and Softopper will be a great compliment to Bestop’s Supertop for Truck product line,” says Bestop CEO John Larson.” 7E32E349-1119-45A7-A29D-338DE851AC84.jpg

    I was part of a group buy a while ago, it might have only been free shipping or a small discount.

    He did, but mobtown offroad just released something of a similar concept. If I’m not mistaken the two of them worked together on it.

    I did my research and I found that the Softtopper was probably the best product. I don't much like the look of the besttop either even though I considered it.

    Same here, I took a long look at Bestop’s New Super Top 2, which is an huge improvement over the previous version. At the end of the day the Softopper was still in the lead for the same price point.
