Another soft cab owner here. Install in the winter, remove in the summer.

Isn't a soft cab as miserable as a Jeep's soft top?
At least with the Jeep there's a glass windshield and wipers.

Granted there is no glass windshield and wipers, never had a need for them. Main use was to keep warm in the winter when moving snow. Snow just blew off but cab kept me out of the wind and snow and I was perfectly warm even on 0 deg days.
This the cab I have for my tractor:

I've got the optional glass windshield for my Original Tractor Cab. I didn't get the wiper but I've never needed it. After 13 years, there are a few scratches on the side and rear plastic windows but not enough to affect visibility. No heater but it cuts the wind and cold enough that I'm comfortable in Carharts.

How do you deal with the condensation?

My M6040 is open station with a canopy. I enjoy the fresh air and ability to hear whats going on when using implements.
I seldom use the tractor if the weather is bad. Being retired usually means most anything can wait.
An example - I use to get up very early to plow snow on my mile long driveway. Not any more.

Also - I don't really mind the heat so much here. When it does get hot - the humidity is always below 15%.
If for some REALLY important reason I might have to go out in the cold and snow. My Eddie Bauer down jacket, pants and gloves are a whole lot less expensive than a cab.
