    depends on the loads. In general, match the roof height to the load.

    And it may vary, but with the International 9400, the 72" condo weighs less than the equivalent 72" midroof with a factory roof fairing. I expected the opposite to be true...

    I'm guessing because of the extra material, which makes sense. I wouldn't use a fairing, maybe a scoop down the road, but meh.
