Thank you , it performs suprisingly well for a hardbody. Its a light body to begin with, so its nowhere near as heavy as the 4-door JK hardbody.

When his backed has been turned I've been able to wheel it a bit and it does very well!

Thanks! ...and yep thats a Coperhaed alright! We saw two of them in the water and then a ringneck snake up in dry rocks. All this snake sunbathining began around 1:00PM so we left then seeing that it was only getting worse and we were there since 10:30AM.
