Thanks everyone, I know I'm going to miss my old scout especially on the narrow rock crawls. My raptor of course It rides beautifully on the road. Have not taken off road yet. I'm still getting used to not knowing exactly where my outer wheel well brush guards are when parking. Getting it in my garage is a challenge every time sob far. Have maybe 3 inches on each side with mirrors folded and only 3 inches to play with between the front and rear. Makes me cringe every time I drive it in and out but I beats baking in the intense sun.

Yup that's the one! I've had it out off road up in the white mts a few weeks ago and it was flawless. And the ride on the way up and back was hard to beat. Still have my Scout, looks like I will get it cleaned up this weekend and start thinking about what it could sell for to the right binder brain.

I have one concern so far, looks like my smallish utility trailer (7' wide at wheels) x 11.5' total length is not visible at all from the side mirrors. Would extension mirrors allow the view I'm needing to see? (At least a hint of the tires and sides of the trailer). Backing it up is a chore so far. Thx!
