my kite instructor likes them so much he has two of them. one of them is for our crew and our gear(its smelly and gritty) and the other is nice and clean for driving the out-of-towner, tourist clients back and forth to the beach for their $100 per hour lessons.

nice move, probly WAY more fuel efficient than my ride!!! You should check out some Husky Liners for your floorboards and maybe save a little wear and tear. I don't see how you guys do it with cars/suv. I love having a truck with a lid. No matter how much funk is on your gear, you throw it in the back and shut the lid. It's locked up, safe and the funk is contained!!! Don't get me wrong dude, not bashing your ride, I just like the option of hose-ing out the back and having a funk barrier!!! However, 10mpg requiring 93 octane adds up to the price of a new kite REALLY fast

Welcome to the club Bryan! Can't wait to check it out. A few words of advice. Apparently with the rubber floors, if you have any sand on the floor and turn the air or heat on, the sand gets blown around (nothing to stick to) and supposedly clings to the "lube" on the wheels that run the heating and air system and it can jam. I didn't believe the dealer when i brought it in,(they said i wasn't the first one with this problem) but they showed me, and sure enough.... sand sticks really well to lube.
Maybe that's why the backside is so popular? LOL! Anyway, they suggested i get cheapo floormats for the front. I told them i hadn't been driving thru a sandstorm or on the beach, but apparently a little sand on the ground is all you need. Other than that, I love it. I was even able to fit Toby inside with no sunroof!! I think we need "team elemental" stickers. Ebone? Chris? Ha ha. Its definitely a GREAT kite vehicle. Hope to see you soon....its been FOREVER!
