So I'm in a bit of a dilemma. Currently, I have a nice stainless steel ladder rack and an aluminum tool box on my truck. I just got an aluminum truck cap with a ladder rack built onto it. I am kind of leaning toward keeping the ladder rack and tool box on right now but I wanted to see what everyone else would do. The downside to the ladder rack is that there is a lot of wind noise and it probably hurts my MPG a little. Currently I do not use ladders on a daily basis but I run into using my ladder rack a lot for lumber, furniture and other long things that don't fit in a small truck bed. The cap would be nice for winter coming up to keep my bed clear of snow and I could still use the ladder rack. If I keep the ladder rack and tool box on the truck then I am outfitting the trailer with the cap mounted to it. cap is a little short than the trailer so it doesn't cover it all but I also have a plastic tool box that may split the difference. I just want to see what the preference is out there.
