My opinion:
I test drove it; I loved it; I bought it. I don't bother or really care what any of the auto magazines/websites say about what vehicle is best in sales, features, etc. The only opinion that matters to me when I buy something is mine.
I have the BAK Revolver X4S on my Gladiator. It works with the trail rails. If you have trail rails in the bed of your truck, keep in mind that many tonneau covers will not fit with them installed.

Happy to hear that you are ok (for the most part). When dealing with the other insurance company, just remember, YOU did NOTHING wrong! If you aren't happy with what they offer, as much as I hate to say it, talk to an attorney.
I was a little worried at first when I decided on the Heigh 10. I read where quite a few Jeeples that switched to it had problems. I'm guessing they didn't use the right wiring harness. I've had no problems at all with my system. I changed out all the speakers and added 2 amps (with tuners) and...
I've been running mine thru a car wash since I bought it. No problems at all. An occasional water drop or two at the top of the door where the soft top meets the frame, but nothing to complain about.
Same as you, but my warranty ran out because of mileage - 65k+ and it's a 21 Willys. No power locks or windows. Best of all, no mechanical issues, only maintenace. I have kept up with the manufacturer recommended maintenance schedule and because of it, the dealer has given me a lifetime warranty...
I'm a female in the construction industry, so my take will be different from most everyone on here.
