Look forward to your findings. I love the look but wondering about efficiency. I've been going toward the soft sided route thinking I will save space in my 2dr being able to cram into every nook.

I have so far a tool roll bag, molle mount soft sided first aid kit, a recovery kit in a small backpack, a small duffle for my flyfishing gear, a larger duffle for clothes, and another duffle for kitchen/utensils, etc. (still in work).
It’s definitely a journey. I built my own security box because I couldn’t find anything close to what I wanted. I am able to fit one large pelican case underneath for recovery gear, a smaller Harbor Freight case for survival gear, and my first aid go bag. My recovery boards and Hi-Lift Jack mount on top. My soft top windows and fabric door window tops fit between the backseat and my security box.

Ya, trees are no joke. Although, we just had a really weird storm event here called a Derecho a couple weeks ago. It literally felled 6 foot wide trees like they were saplings. Like completely broke in half or just torn from the ground with root balls. I have never seen weather like that in my life. It was basically a 100km wide tornado. Lol. Im sure the people in Tornado Alley are like "meh, suck it up" but for us up here it was a big deal. No power for like a week, 100s of hydro poles snapped right in half, a few deaths. Trees 100m from my house trashed, meanwhile, my BBQ moved 8 feet, cover got removed and gently placed beside it, lol. It was so weird.
yep, tornadoes are weird things. Grew up in Oklahoma, seemed like there was a tornado somewhere every day, lol.

Lol, mine look brand new sitting the spot made for them in the since the first time I took them off. Do people that yank their doors regularly actually put the screws back in?
i ran for the first year without them. after that i started to notice my passenger door was rattling and knocking around. reinstalled the torque nut and it went away. I now spend the extra 30 seconds taking them on an off each time

Installed the missing cup holders in the back. Not a whole lot, but I have no clue why they don't include these with the leather seats. Now to detail and get rid of all the GSD fur. Except it's 32ÂşC heading to 35ÂşC and feeling like 45.

Really? I put the Delrin inserts and have been running like this well over a year with zero rattle. That includes taking hinges off doors to get them LineX'd and then put back. Lol.

Ya, we've had a couple of those in the past few years as well. A Derecho is a completely different beast though.
Here is a video of a Derecho coming through Colorado 2 years ago. I had no idea at the time I was almost taken out by my outdoor sofa!

Lol, nice moves!
My BBQ got moved like 8 feet. Don't worry though, the gas line saved it. Lol.
