    For those who have tried driving in rain with a canopy - with both the cab rear window and canopy front window open - how wet does it get inside the cab and canopy? Can a pool noodle be squeezed above the windows to reduce most water entry? I’m needing to travel with long items in the rain and figuring out if this is feasible.

    Yes, roof racks exist ... though that’s not my question. Thanks!

    I think I would go with one made for this purpose.

    I used to have the rubber seal that goes around the pass thru that connects the rear window to the shell and it rubbed the paint off after some time. I bought the Tundra used and it was already on there so not sure how long it took to rub the paint off. I would suggest if you do use that rubber seal, put some clear PPF around the exterior of the rear window first. That should protect the paint. Just sharing my experience.
