Yeah I suppose that is a fair assessment, I've never been closterphoblic so a non popping hightop is enough for me. Besides I rarely sleep up top anyway. I do see how you get the beifit of the westy top in terms of room (which I have always liked on the rar ocassions I am up there) and an inside fixed, covered, dry and permanent storage area. The venelation is likely better than an adventurewagen. I did a lot of camping in the summer last summer and one of the reasons I like the idea of permanent up top storage is I hated the evening ritual of moving all the clutter up to the pop top to sleep, and the morning ritual of taking it down again so you could drive somewhere. This top would solve that, but so does my AW top...
