So, last year we were all just waiting for the fabled "rubber" to arrive at ADV headquarters, on what we all assumed was a slow boat from China...
Now, it sounds like that was never the case at all. I wonder if the original rubber they rejected was from a Chinese manufacturer, so they pivoted to one in the US, and then had to ship that TO China?
Curiouser and curiouser...

I cannot wait for the eventual Netflix Documentary about the ADV Hardtop conspiracy... ;)

Fiberglass companies like Fiberwerx and McNeil Racing are located down in the San Diego area and their products are manufactured across the border in Mexico. That could also be another possibility to add to the conspiracies within this thread.

That's where the Turn Off-Road tops are manufactured. and they have no problem sharing that info with potential customers.

I take your word for it . I can't make anything out.
By the way. If anybody has noticed, my anxiety level has plummeted, another waterfowl season without my hard top and backup lights is in the shitter. I gave up

What a scam!

A Rally Top at $4k isn't looking so bad after all. And it's AVAILABLE. They also re-designed their back window (see pic below) which was a big turn off for many. I'm not saying this is a good top, but it's the cheapest, available, and would work for many who just need a seasonal hard top.

In all honesty, that looks 1000x better than when they first came out or at least how I remembered they looked. In fact, if you are someone who doesn't object to the looks of the MIC (which to me is a deal killer but to each his own) this would be a no brainer.

There is some grainy super 8 movie camera footage going around showing an ADV hardtop sitting on the grassy knoll. That answers alot of questions. :)
