Unfortunately there's no need for something for me yet Toasty... but I'm sure at some point in the future there will be a 2nd Montero in my driveway again.
Plus since my front frame horns were modified, you'd need my rig there in order to build a front bumper that would fit it. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />
On a semi related note,
We were at the Overland Expo this weekend and we saw an array of aftermarket for building and outfitting your rig to take wheeling and camping. All of these great products had one thing in common and that was the price. With the exception of things like tie down straps, pocket knives, string, canteens and things like that none of it was affordable to us (they had lemonade for $5 per 16oz cup). Aside from our small Mitsu group it seemed like everyone else there had a more disposable income, the vehicles and setups there were unreal. I kept thinking "what if i couldn't fabricate my own stuff" i'd never be able to build up a Montero. So even if there was a healthy aftermarket for Montero's it probably wouldn't do me any good because it would mostly be priced out of my reach.
$5 is obscene price for lemonade as is most of the prices paid by buyers at that event. That said, I can't knock those willing to pay that cost for a product, so long as that means eventually prices will drop low enough that it makes sense for me to purchase them later on down the line. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
I honestly don't think we'd have any of the cheap products we have now if it wasn't for the small number of 3%'ers who were willing to pay $$$$ for them when they first hit the market. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
