Any thoughts or ideas of how hard will it be to take off the hard top on the Gladiator?

So easy compared to a wrangler Limited. Storage is still an issue.

Rear section isn't heavy at all, just big and awkward. With a tonneau cover I just unbolted, flipped it backwards onto the cover and lifted it off. Surprisingly easy. Did it in reverse to put it back.

It's quite easy - I have my teenage daughter help me remove it after I've taken all the bolts out first. Tip - use a power drill to remove the bolts; MUCH quicker.

I still think Jeep could have made freedom panels for the rear too. I mean, how hard would that have been to do?

I am a left arm amputee and its harder to remove a freedom panel than it is to remove the hardtop for me. A lift helps though.
