I bought the net for mine, I took the tailgate off once. We had some rainy weather so it had to go back on, that tailgate will NEVER be removed again, that is a pain in the a$$. I was outside in the rain with my tailgate hanging from my cherry picker. You really find out who your friends are in that scenario. It was cool but not worth the work, I thought taking off the roof and putting it back on was a pain in the butt.
