Default Truck Boot

Keeping our hunting companions warm and dry can pose some difficulty in extreme weather. I've always put a cap on my truck, so that keeps the rain and wind off the dogs when traveling. I've also been using a truck boot , which is an inflatable clear rectangular inner tube that fits between the back slider window of my truck cab and the slider opening of the cap. put it in place and inflate it, and it effectively seals the cap and cab . Heat/air conditioning can pass thru and warm the cap significantly. I keep a digital thermometer in my cap to monitor the temp there. It was 24 degrees outside and in the cap when I loaded the dogs up Thursday, and when getting to the hunting area , was almost 50 degrees in the cap from the heat flowing back into the cap. No big investment either, around $30, just google truck boot.
