Looks pretty nifty. Those tables are nicely done too. You got all the toys. That's traveling in style. Nice looking pooch too! Now where are you off to to use them?

I guess our newest modifications would be a new 3 stage converter and monitor. Have to figure out digital tv tuner.

Nice job. I too added LED running lights. I also converted one of the inside lights to fluorescent. I also just bought a 3 stage charger I plan on installing so I can stop cooking my batteries.

Off this week end to Central Ohio
With the Jet Ski’s -Wife- kid- Dog
Can't go too far spent too much money on the repairs
But hey the tables are nice; I love the front receiver, made a flag pole holder out of spare ball hitch works great.
So all said I am excited about this season,
This fall planning on going out west for 3 weeks
Just have to save up for gas money, probably means I need to stay a way from Vegas.
