List, Out here, any new equipment is better than no passenger equipment. Personnally, I would like to see a smooth-side version, unless the fluting keeps the sides cleaner or has some possitive effect on fuel economy (which I doubt). I also have a somewhat funny but true story of testing newer designs for crashes, but it is not specifically EL related. It might apply to the shovel-nose of this unit. And I think a somewhat re-arranged paint scheme could improve these units. HHAINES ------------------------------
