    Old friend of mine had a Boston and that was the coolest damn dog ever. She was a sweetheart but such a big personality lol.

    I’ve got the little dogs too. A 12 year old female pug and a 2 year old male pug. Also big personalities and pretty damn good alert dogs for when someone gets close to the house. Otherwise, absolutely useless

    I Just took some rough measurements and it looks like a 315 is going To cover mine. won’t really know till i get it on. If so I guess I’ll have to cut the bars and move it over a few inches. I guess I could take one of my tires off and see. That way I could go ahead and get that out of the way before I actually
    Get another tire. Can’t be riding dirty with one tail light covered. :rofl:

    @KILLINTIME if it's this easy to get to me buy something by just saying your truck would look good with it, tell me to ls swap it please...I love this freaking thing better than my old snug top.

    Haaaaa!! But foreal, I love my softopper more and more everyday. It’s so versatile! And it looks better than your hard shell too.

    I have the know how and facility to perform the swap but I keep seeing that the a750 trans wont bolt up to an ls. Bell housing is detachable so maybe someone makes one. I have been seriously been toying around with the idea and with my engine approaching 225k I couldnt justify a supercharger at that milage.

    You can always justify a supercharger.

    just to be clear

    Not going to lie I'm really liking the look of the soft topper. If it wasn't for my rtt I'd probably try one.
