Comfortable and drives nice and smooth. Fun to take offroad. Taking the roof off in summer is nice. In 4 years we've never taken the doors off.

Ya. You folks have take the wind out of my sails. I've heard wind noise is an issues but I did not detect on Stoney but maybe in Strathmore or GP would be different. My field foreman absolutely loves his to put his guns and fishin poles in.

I wouldn't discourage you. It's a fun vehicle. The noise is at its worst on a windy day on something like hwy 2 out on the bald prairie (going 120). We took it to Kelowna last summer and it was great on hwy 3 through the mountains.
