Horse box and 4 horses Seriously a small 2 wheel 6 x4 wooden trailer Mainly for carrying used it gear about 3/4 times P.A. Already got me a trailer Just researching the best towing equip't
Also some pics on the way soon Having black paintwork can be troublesome Mopped and polished with tcut colourfast Then sealed with tcut colourseal Looks and feels delicious water beads off and the crud doesn't seem to stick so easily Also pro clear applied to front screen ice doesn't set and wipes away with wipers on the 1st swipe Rain disappears anything above 25 mph Bought a battery operated whirling brush(bit like a large orange rotating toothbrush) Did the alloys inside and out jet blasted em off Sealed with armour all. The brake dust and crud just wipes away Hard work from the offset but easier in the long run Regards Col
Congrats on the Prius!! Sounds like you had the same idea as a lot of us - keeping money in our pockets and not the oil companies or governments.
