Bosun11 537 Posted August 29, 2007 Report Share Posted August 29, 2007 Had one the same Mike, though in hind sight I wish I'd have held on for a manual box'd one, much better when the going gets tough! Don't get me wrong, had some fun in the big 'ol bus and their comfy 'ol things to drive. Down sides for the dog game, the back...... get a dog guard and if ya can, a full liner in it. Is it the model with the spare on the back? Can be a right pain shifting it to get the dogs out quick.....BUT dropping that back window can come in very handy whilst bumping over the rough stuff whilst sommat is in sight (just make sure the dogs are held back wilst its goin down or it'll shatter!!) Watch out for drivin with it down in the rain though, to much water and the motor can seize (a feckin nightmare 3 hours from home). All in all Mike, loved mine......wish you well Cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
