Run like this usually from some time in May till some time in Sept./Oct. depending on the weather and then the hard top goes back on till the next year.
Bought a soft top from someone and we took my MIC off and her painted off to access some of the parts and found that the painted was slightly heavier but not enough to be that much of a concern. Maybe 5lbs if I was guessing but you definitely tell a difference between the two.
Just my two cents...
Went from an 18 Wrangler JLU Moab to 21 Gladiator Rubicon to a 22 Bronco Badlands (non-sas) to a 24 Bronco Raptor. Each one was better than the last and the Raptor is the best of all!!
Correct the Ford OEM soft top does fit the Raptor perfectly (might need to adjust ur brackets a little)
but not the TrekTop soft top that Ford sells through the accessories website.
