Hey Mark, Can't say that's been my experience... I've had quite a few Euro outfitted "world traveler" T3's come through my shop over the years, and those suckers have been heavily modified with more doodads than I can count. Pretty imaginative stuff too. Europeans (especially Germans) love their doodads! Cheers, Jeff

People from the USA/CA seem to largely think their vehicle needs all kinds of extra gadgets and doodads to make a trip of any consequence. People from other places seem more content to set off with only the most basic of equipment and just wing it from there. Somehow they manage just fine. Mark |
