SMB pic on Yakima site.

SMB pic on Yakima site home page. Thought that was pretty cool. Seems like everything is on the wrong side of the SMB though.

Wouldn't that be a marvellous way to convert my TARDIS/smb to right hand drive for Australia, just snap your fingers, save AUD$40k?

It looks great though, full conversion, including the side doors to the left.

Now, to find a state in Australia to license it without and inspection?

Buy a Chevy. They make em.

I love the press on Yakima's site here, albeit backwards, but you would think if they were gonna advertise one of their products they would make it a little more visible, or pronounced? All I see is a small Yakima rack on a big SMB in the dark shrouded by trees. Just seems a little weird to me, a little small

Those Wheels! What a ride.

Somebody's Photoshop license needs to be revoked.

Re: SMB pic on Yakima site.

That is an absolutely horrible photograph. Did that company actually use it in an ad? Even worse, someone got paid to make it!

Not anymore. It was only available on the 1500.

Transit has a driver side mid-door option. Only on the cargo van though, but you can order the cargo van with full windows and interior trim and HVAC.
