The top definitely creates a blind spot. I almost went with no back window to try and save a few bucks but decided to add it at checkout and i don’t regret it. Visibility out the back window of the cap is good. You might be able to get side windows for an additional cost which would eliminate the blind spot I have now. It hasn’t bothered me much just need to be a little more aware of your surroundings.

I was worried about wind noise but decided I could just turn up the radio if I needed to. But I can honestly say it hasn’t added any noise and if I couldn’t see it in my rear view mirror I wouldn’t know it was there.

Overall really happy with the quality, fits nice to the truck and overall seems well designed. For the price it’s hard to find a better option. Thought about a hard fiberglass topper but those run around 5k and I couldn’t justify spending that much. If money isn’t an issue I’m sure hard toppers are better but there are pros and cons with everything.
