    Retaining the middle seat with two Stratos seats

    In Gait's thread there's a picture and comment on the two Stratos suspension seats with what appears to be the middle part of the original double seat still in place. Can anyone tell me how that is accomplished? I'd like to do that in my truck eventually.

    Pop-ups and wind

    I've got a Texson(Northstar)T1000 on my Fuso FG. We were camped on the rim of the Purgatoire River last week with very high winds, probably 60-70mph gusts. The whole truck was being buffeted by the winds, it was like being in a boat on the high seas. It raised my curiosity about the...

    Old Town Scout

    Picked up an Old Town Scout from Craigslist for a friend last night for $200. Needs a deck and one gunwale was cracked. Spliced in a piece of aluminum angle today and got the gunwale repaired. I'll have to call Old Town for a deck. I've seen lots of cross linked polyethylene boats before but...

    FG cold weather starting

    It got down to about 12 below zero F last night and since my FG was sitting outside my house instead of in the storage lot, I thought I'd see how well it started in cold temperatures. It was probably around 5 degrees F when I started it at mid-morning. It has summer fuel and I hadn't added any...
