Mike,
I'd say this thing fits the genre of CS in terms of PODs. I like the
compact design (even if only the visor has room to flip) and the grips and
arms. The shape makes me think of a Gonk droid. If Gonk isn't trademarked
(which I bet it is), I wonder if there's a good meaning you could give the
acronym GONK??
(BTW, I also like your redesign of the Island Extreme truck.)
