For the life of me, why would anyone brag about being able to remove a windshield in 39 seconds? Such a nifty thing indeed! Jeez. If the windscreens are so freaking great, why bother removing them? To better pose? And even then, what to do with the dern thing once removed? Oh, I'll lean it up against this Saguaro while I take some photos of Rt. 66. Hum, you can go from touring mode to trolling mode? Troll? Really?

Good video write-up though.



Hehehe! I couldn't agree more, Jim. I recently added a Stratoliner (which I refer to as a Freight Liner) to my modest stable. It, too, has a plethora of 30 second removables - each of which would require a space of its own somewhere on the garage. So, they stay mounted where they were intended to be and for which I bought the damned thing anyway. Another "bonus" aspect of the quick-remove accoutrements is that not being firmly affixed allows for a whole lot of rattle whilst traversing rough pavement. The only real benefit I can think of is cleaning and maintenance can be easier or more effective with all that furniture removed, and removing it is quick.
