I couldn't agree more...for the routine day to day operations of it..depending on where and how far we are going and the weather conditions.. I roll the hannibal cover up and leave it at the back of the tent i the cavity between the tool box and the tent, the 2 inch height raise alows me to place it where it doesn't interfere with anything.. I had the missus make up a cover out of some sunbrella material I have been using for other stuff and this cover while not as waterproof as the hannibal cover is much easier to put on as it wraps over the side rails and secures with snaps and velcro...if we start heading into nasty weather and I need the tent a bit more waterproof and still intend on using it I can still use the factory one as it goes right over the one we have made.. I thought about taking the sides of the rack off but then I have no rigidity in my front lighting bar...I hate it when lights vibrate as you are using them...and the front limb risers would have no real strength either..I really thought about going back to the smaller one but I think I will enjoy the extra space of this one...hopefully it outweighs the PITA bit with the cover...
