    I vote hard shell as well. If it's a decent one a lot less water, dirt, and crud to clean out compared to the soft ones. Can haul stuff on the roof without getting a rack set up bigger than you have already. You can haul pretty much with it, I agree get a trailer if you have to take it off or rig up something in a garage or carport to take it off easily (folks do the latter)

    Yeah the soft toppers are appealing but I see the function of a hard shell to fit me more because I can haul things on top. Just saw a soft topper for $500 obo on CL and thought about it.

    If you're willing to spend that much you could totally get a hard shell!

    edit: You should try and buy this guys shell

    There are some hardshells floating around as well. There was a guy on here selling a snugtop from SC a couple months back don't think he sold it yet.

    Maybe he will give it to me for a decent price. I texted him to see if he’d separate.

    Yeah I’ve been floating around CL and FB the past week and a half and only seem to find long bed stuff. Never anything for SBs.

    You think there'd still be snow there? I'm over snow right now, and want some damn traction.

    someone mentioned 5"-11" a few days ago, but I have no idea where they got their numbers. I've been keeping an eye on it and most I saw was maybe 1". I hope it's not bad this trip

    Looking at weatherunderground and the history the past few days, it never dipped below freezing. I think people are :crazy:

    NE PA got over a foot. @steele-taco posted a picture. My parents said they had 8" of heavy wet snow by 10am yesterday.

    Looking at this snow map of the past 3 days, it confirms my thoughts that Rausch didn't get anything. They're the little yellow dot.

    Ouch but the cars don't look like they got smashed too terribly bad. I would be out there already had taken photos, phoned the ins. companies and then started cutting that thing up.
