[QuadList] OT: How to move a VPR-80 in a sidecar cabinetwithout a truck or trailer--AVR 2 Next??

[Ted Langdell]

Hi, Bill...

That's a good idea.

The Sprinter is one of the vehicles I've done some on-line research  
about. I need to take a test drive with a fully-loaded vehicle.

  Do you regularly drive one?

The tall version would be fine for the Vario's height... but I'd miss  
not being able to park in a lot of hotel and institutional parking  
garages which are vertically limited.  As it is, I sometimes duck when  
driving the Mountaineer =:O)
