I generally don't drive my Blazers in the rain. In the odd circumstance I do get caught in the rain with the bed exposed I am 61 years old. How much time do I have left? I doubt I will be alive if and when it rusts out. Someone else's problem when I am gone.
I appreciate your response...too often people take offence to a comment that's not meant to be offensive.
I thought it was likely for ease of removal/install.
I have a soft top for my '72 and yes it's kinda noisy but with the heater on high, it's tolerable even in cold weather....but....
I live in Tennessee so "cold" is a relative term....
BTW....I'm 66 so struggling with the factory top can be, let's say "challenging"....
I carry a tarp in my '70...just in case...
