    Are you going to buy a bumper also? seems like a good idea to take her out first.

    I couldn't see out of the softopper. This unhooks from the back bar and angles down for offroading. Nice design, just not sure yet.

    I have no experience with the soft topper or a best top but this would be the reason I'm leaning toward the best top it has more windows. I'm assuming you can remove the sides and rear panel of either and run just the top. After cutting appart the bed bars I aquired a cab basket and designed this configuration



    Now thinking I'll move the cab basket to the roof and get a best top sometime

    More windows are not a good thing. Especially in cold weather. Windows are a weak link in a canvas design.

    Good point. I'm considering just putting everything back in like it was but I can't haul mu trash cans to the dump with the basket in there and everytime I put the bars in I have to use it like a truck and take them back out. I don't want the weight of a hard top either. still considering options

    Once it hits 105+ it gets interesting. But when the morning lows are above 80 and stay there, it's hot. That's when the only real refuge is ac, shade or both....and lots of water. Cold water.
