    My canopy leaks where it meets the tray and the back of the cab, its been off and several times and always resealed yet still leaks. So no way would I sleep in the back in the rain.

    If you've resealed the main canopy/well body seal a few times, its likely something else leaking. Look around the windows. Park it on a hill in the rain, what stays wet/dry can give you some clues. That said, leaks, know how to travel.

    My Crown canopy leaks by the little sliding window in the middle, between the canopy and cab. Water runs down the window and comes in through the bottom of that fuzzy seal.

    It helps if I park on a slight incline, nose pointing down.
