Does indeed, if it was mine and funds allowed I'd seriously consider a matching colour Truckman top for the rear bed. Very Happy ____\We|Will|Win/___

I know that people choose different tops and different colours for many reasons and preferences, but it is perhaps worth bearing in mind that an unpainted Ifor Williams canopy (such as I have) is very good indeed if you ever need to transport animals in the back (as I do) since it stays astonishingly cool even in the hottest sun. It is much cooler than a coloured canopy.


(Before anyone asks or a flame war begins, no, I never leave dogs etc in the back in the sun! I do, however, of necessity, very occasionally have to transport animals on hot days.)

Oh the Ifor is heavy duty and very purposeful but can be a bit too heavy duty / agricultural for some.
Not that anything is wrong with that, far from it but I say it depends on intended use.
We used to have similar on a Navara D40 a Snugtop to be precise and it was ideal for our dogs what ever weather.
But it did have sliding windows in it for good ventilation. No good otherwise of course..... ____\We|Will|Win/___
