I've hauled the dogs back there for years, winter and summer. Slider windows in the cab of the truck and front of the cap, with a doughnut sealing around them (inflated bicycle inner tube) provides heat in the winter. I also bought adjustable roof vents that opened like air scoops sucking in air going down the road on each corner of the front of the cap roof (cap place sells them), blowing out the open side windows like ram-air conditioning - close them when it rains, snows. The dogs love it. Throw a piece of carpet down in the bed to absorb shocks when they lay down. Works fine. My dogs take care of the place, I try to take care of them. I also think part of the reason they say no riders back there is because folks often just clamp the caps down, instead of drilling and bolting them down. Clamps have a tendency to loosen over time, and need to be adjusted. I've seen caps fly off when just clamped. Too expensive for me to lose, so 6 holes, 6 bolts, no clamps, it stays on the truck.
