So FIONA is finally done, well done enough anyway, i have plans to develop something new for interior and exterior rear doors but time is short right now and rather just finally use her. Fiona is the result of a fairly extensive build for us with 1750 hours into her, but still follows our belief of simplicity in design and systems. Took way longer than i wanted on this one since i had several other projects in the mean time that pulled me away for several months. Made for longer term travel with 2 humans and 2 dogs with storage for all the toys. You know, this Colorado boy REALLY needs to escape Quebec for a while--looooong while.
