  7. Front deck hatch with vent

    Like most of the MY's, I have that forward hatch that has the integrated vent. I really don't like having that thing stick up on the front deck. If I need ventilation, I can open it. I don't need a vent. It's just in the way. It would be better to replace it with a hatch that was solid and...

  19. Solar power 12v & 32v battery charging

    Since the transient season has begun we're out on the hook. The upsides are that the view is excellent and it's pretty quiet.
