Gimmick or not?

[SuperBuickGuy]

Okay, let's play a game.... gimmick or not - ever seen a mod that you thought "dumb" but then reconsidered and thought "does that really work?"... well here is the place to play and ask those questions.

so let's start with an example

see the window in the passenger floorboard? gimmick or not?

What about the 8 tires?

 

[SuperBuickGuy]

snow flotation and better side-hill traction.

Passenger window, sick! 8 tires seems unnecessary

If the passenger floor board window is in a center steer vehicle the driver could look through it to see what is going on at the passenger front tires, at least in some instances.

So when is Squeaky getting a floorboard window ?

Interesting idea lol

Yea, he needs 3pl. Stack for better snow flotation.

I personally think 8 tires is unnecessary, just get some balloon tires like they run in Iceland. Seems to work pretty well for them over there.

Get a flat = 3 spares?

this gives you the width without the weight from a taller tire - I'm not sure I agree with the idea, nor do I think it really is any better the simply a set of snow-tracks.... however, it does work and there are some who would consider any dispute fighting words (lol).

I think he is just "flexing" his fabricating skills.

Once you hit the trails the window will be so dirty it will be impossible to see out of it

 

[3Hummers]

No more so than a windshield unless you are mudding.

 

[JPaul]

Just add a little windshield wiper from a rear car hatch or something, along with a windshield cleaner fluid spray nozzle/tube/pump.

 

[RamRod]

Don't even put a window.... it's only your passenger [emoji14]

 

[JPaul]

I've thought it'd be nice to have a video camera system for spotting, though they have those birds eye setups now that seem decent.

Damn...he already put a window in his oil pan. That's going to be tough to top.
