I agree with these comments plus it is a PITA to put up. Bought one with the car and have only had it on three times, one of those times was just to familiarize myself with how to put it on. Otherwise I have never used it. For cold I just put on more layers. For rain, just drive faster to send the rain over your head! Side curtains do greatly decrease the wind buffet and also help a little with the cold.
