I really like the concept of a topper to keep my collection of toolboxes dry, particularly for those sudden summertime thunderstorms. But I also intend to use this truck regularly with a gooseneck trailer. I'm just wondering if it will be feasible to remove/reinstall the topper on a weekly basis.
I would think my aluminum cap is well under 100 lbs. it is real easy with two people and i would think it would be manageably by yourself.
