How time-consuming is it to take the st bed cap on and off, and can you leave the tonneau brackets on with the cap?
Too bad there isn't a cap that allows the tonneau to sort of stay on, as I don't need unobstructed vertical space--I'm always hauling paper and small loose objects (in quantity) around, and I can only use the space under the tonneau with the gate up, and sometimes the backseats, so I'm wasting a lot of space and making too many trips
I tried using an Odyssey and an Explorer to carry to stuff, but even though it is bagged/boxed, without the bed to secure it, everything just slides around the cabin so I can't pack as much in their either....and using the People Haulers and friends' rides as junk ferries isn't a good long term solution anyway.
Plus, I've always been curious about a cap.
Never had a truck before the ST, so I don't know much about them. If they're easy to take off, then I can go from SUV with bed to Truck at my leisure, and I'd use the cap enough to justify its use. If I remember correctly, someone here had a cap that put a seal between the cap front window and the ST rear window, making the window still useful and the bed accessible from the cabin, which kills all my anti-cap arguments that I made to myself.
