Insulating Roof

What is the move with these wall vents, all I can find online is the attic plastic baffles which has lead me down a rabbit hole on how to install those. Are plastic baffles and then insulation really what needs to be done here?

I’m in the PNW so humidity isn’t really an issue.

I’m assuming I’d want to put a vent cover on these before we drywall but I’m not finding a premade solution online.

$20K to switch to a Hardtop?

So my Wildtrak is at the Dealer getting serviced right now, just hit 33K miles. The soft top has a rear quarter panel that is starting to splay out at the seam looking right into the rig, and while talking to the service team and checking a couple other boxes including recalls and general maintenance I asked if he could quote me out on just replacing the soft top with an OEM gloss black hard top.

I will add this is one of the more reputable dealers in town, they are Roush certified and will be performing my ProCal tune here at under $650 so I know they aren't just trying to gouge on price. Long story short the service tech just called me back said they are still looking into whether they need to warranty the soft top or repair it but that if I wanted to switch to a hard top it would be $20K with parts and labor. He said the structure of how the soft tops are set up out the door are missing pieces to make a hard top compatible.

Has anyone else experienced this astronomical of a price? Is 3rd party truly just the best way to go at this point?

Towing a Camper?

Hey Fellow Bronco Owners!

I'm looking at towing a camper trailer for roughly 800 mile trip this summer through Oregon. I've been weighing the pro's and con's of using my Bronco or just renting a drivable RV. To my knowledge my Bronco (22 Wildtrak) only has a 3,500 lb towing capacity. Curious if anyone else on the SUB has towed closer to 4K pounds and experienced any issues? Photos for attention.
