Hi Mic.
I had loads of fun trying to manoeuvre my crusader super storm with a short wheelbase Patrol up front. You definitely will have some serious fun with a combo of that length!

Well, if you are ever unlucky enough to lose your house - there's a spare one on the drive!

That is big. What's the interior layout on these?

Cheers,

It looks really nice inside there.
