Well, if you have started something I'll second that emotion.

The Shady Boy works well under most Pacific Northwest conditions, mounts
securely and you can't even tell it's there while driving.

I'm mounting a Fiamma 45i for someone else and it's a beautiful piece of
equipment BUT very heavy.  The special Fiamma mounting system appears to
work but I have another someone who says his Fiamma 45i wobbles around while
driving.  (I didn't install it and haven't seen the install yet).  Cost may
be a factor for some at $900 to $1000 bucks with shipping.

Man the Battle Stations! ;-)
