Herb-

Re: "to finalize my order...etc., etc.," You, of course were right! In code-speak, that "finalization" cost me about 15 grand. You would think that after 62 years a guy would learn, but obviously not me!!! Oh, well, you can't take it with you. However, I was planning on spending some of "it" on fuel!

Just tell yourself that if the $15K makes your stay in a location more enjoyable, you won't be compelled to drive somewhere else, and therefore you're saving fuel. Sounds downright environmental, and should probably qualify you for some carbon-offsets!

A carbon negative SMB! Why didn't I think of that?

Yeah dish! What did you order?

The carbon impact- at my local Sunflower Market they put up "Hybrid and low emissions vehicle only" signs across the whole front of the store. I've so far resisted the urge to park my SMB across 5 spots and leave it idling, but it did occur to me that the Hybrids should be the ones tooling around the parking lot searching for a spot while the guzzlers should get reserved parking, thus saving the planet.

Ray-

You're welcome.
We ordered a short 4X4 with floating axle, Dynatrac hubs, no propane or stove, ( I'm probably going to install a Wallas stove/heater as I had one on my last boat and they are for me, the perfect set-up). Also an extra water tank, electric PH, Aluminess bumpers, winch, leather interior (we have a couple of Labradors, and velour and yellow dog hair aren't compatible). Compressor (two actually, one for the front ARB). We're putting the switches above the visor and getting a Kenwood stereo with backup camera and I-pod hook-up, and probably alot of other stuff that I'm too shell shocked to remember. RB 50 BTW
Bill
