Agreed, Bob, full sizers on every car. Well, maybe not the Miata.  "It won't fit" is a poor excuse. It fits fine in my Legacy L. The Outback doesn't fit? Fix it. Redesign the spare tire well. The 4Runner set up is my fave. The glass powers down, and the whole thing lifts up for rain shelter. Plus lift over is easy. -juice |

Agreed, poor execucion, great concept.  -mike |

One nasty looking Wrangler pickup conversion! Reminds me of the original Jeep pickups from the 1950s. This is a vehicle you can order. Also, check out some of the other vehicles they offer.

The LWB ones are cool. Looks like they sort of did a limo Wrangler. -juice |

I had my OBS on the beach about 12-14 times in deep sand in NJ. Not once did I wish I had a full size spare. I guess because there were always plenty of folks around to tow you in case you got into trouble. Now that I think about it, I believe that beach (Island Beach State Park) now requires a full size spare. I know the beaches in Cape Cod require it. -Dennis |

I bet all of them do, they just never check. But it would be one clean-sweep way to keep all Bajas and Outbacks off the beach, even though they are perfectly capable there. -juice |

Since the weather forecast for this weekend was calling for rain, I decided to go out and blow the leaves this afternoon instead. However, I needed to make up some new 2-stroke juice first. So, I get a gallon of gas, mix in the 2-stroke oil, and off I go... It turns out I needed roughly a gallon to do my yard, as my yard was full of leaves (and I did the yard just 5 days ago too!). That means my Echo PB4500 backpack blower gets about one acre per gallon (1 apg)! YIKES! Doesn't make my Explorer seem so bad anymore... Bob |

One must then ask, is the problem with the efficiency of the machine, or it's user..... Steve |

I raked the leaves on Saturday, by Sunday you couldn't tell. But you kind of need to keep up with them, or they get too heavy for a blower to move. Mine's electric, though. The cord is a pain, and it's not that powerful. Sounds like electric cars - limited range, limited power. 2 cycles pollute like crazy, but they make great power. Every rotation has a power stroke. -juice |

Well, I had it floored (so to speak)... Since I finished at sundown, now I have to haul them off to the landfill. Everything in the backyard got blown into the woods. Everything up front goes to the dump. I'm guessing 3 - 4 trailer loads this time. Bob |
