You don’t have a garage? I wouldn’t trust a soft top in a Michigan winter lol.

1.3 inches.

That’s not what I asked, always a gotta be that smart ass.
Lol I don’t think he was being a smartass. I think he was legitimately asking because there’s a big difference between a few inches before it’s moved inside and a 3’ blizzard lol.

There is snow and then there is snow. This last winter here in southern new england there were only a few real accumulations, but those that did come down were that real wet heavy damaging snow.

I wouldn't expect the soft top to hold up for too many outside winters getting hammered with that stuff

Just how much snow do you plan to let accumulate on your Bronco?

My concern is overnight Wet snow if left outside during the winter months in Mi.

I have a soft tonneau cover on my truck. It’s been 4 years of Colorado weather (parked outside) and other than a little sun fade it has held up great. The soft top is heavier material and the supports are more robust than my tonneau. I don’t think it’s an issue if you brush the snow off.

If we get heavy snow here I brush it off before I go to bed and then again when I wake up. No issues, no sag. Michigan snow might be different.
