Re: soft top. ON or OFF in summer ? what do you do ?
Also... I just noticed something... the cover I have is the Bestop version.
It's not actually called a Cab Cover... that's another brand. I think the
Bestop version is a "Trail Cover" or something like that. It's made of
pretty heavy material and doesn't allow water in at all. The Cab Cover
seems to be made of a lighter weight material that is "water resistant".

Re: soft top. ON or OFF in summer ? what do you do ?
I had planned to put the soft-top on for the summer today since the weather
is great ... then heard the forecast -- they say 20-30 cm (8-12 inches)
overnight with blizzard conditions. I guess I will wait another week.

Re: soft top. ON or OFF in summer ? what do you do ?

overnight with blizzard conditions. I guess I will wait another week.
