    Went back to the beach this weekend and brought our daughter and dog along this time. That meant we needed more cargo room, so I hooked up the cargo box and brought it along for the ride. Worked great until I tried to climb uphill through some super deep sand. Didn't get stuck, just stopped making forward progress so had to put her in reverse before I dug in. Felt a healthy "umph" when the box hit the sand after a few feet, didn't do any damage other than to reshape my license plate. Lesson learned for next time.

    Lol... she's a Husky-German Shepherd mix and I think she gets the ears from the latter. You don't know how accurate "radar" is as a description - at full "perk" she can rotate them more than 90 degrees front-to-side, and she can move them independently!

    I can see the outline of her pricked ears, but there also seems to be something that's kind of black & white striped, horizontally, to the right of each ear ....like she's flying flags.......maybe that's movement/blur the camera caught?

    VT - I have a Foxfire and I think your skids are perfect. How could I go about getting a duplicate set? Thnks.

    Rowhard makes and paints the plates. PM him for the pricing and timeframe for production.
    He did mine in a silver color, came out great!

    Hey thanks man, appreciate the compliment! Actually you can find rowhard's ad here, which includes a cost breakdown and how to contact him.

    Take a look at pics 2 and 3 - you can see my sandals from the other angle. And although I am perfectly comfortable in my manhood, no those are not my pink flops.
