We could be a "focus group." Mmmm, free cookies.
Loved the trip log (and Pip's wise observations). I was very fond of my old Sidekick. It was crude, but it was also tough, reliable, cheap to run and maintain, and amazingly roomy for its tiny footprint (mine was a four-door), and surprisingly comfortable on a long trip. Nothing like the X-Trail, but a great and versatile ride for the money.
I would have laughed at that dog-ramp idea, if it weren't for the sad last days of Bud, my big old Lab-shepherd, who was too weak to jump aboard the Sidekick and too heavy to lift without suffering a hernia. All three dogs are plenty spry enough to jump aboard now, and so far, no toenail damage.
Here's to road trips and big yella dogs.
