    I’d agree, when I started the prep and paint on my panels it seemed to take forever. Definitely the longest part of the job…ok in the end but a beast of work. Some of the mechanical was easy by comparison. Your coming on though. 👍

    We often go driving for the whole day on laning or scenic drive trips, I don't find it a problem. They are a bit of an assault on your senses though compared to a normal car.
