This seemed like a good place to stop! I had to try, but without a second vehicle or a lot of spare parts, I played it safe and the score ended up being Steel Pass - 1, SUV - 0.
I'm going to post a few photos showing some of the places I've traveled while working on my pending book on landscape photography locations in California from Yosemite to San Diego. This is near the town of Mojave, California.
I've invested over 3 years of my life in this project. If I don't mention the specific place, please have the courtesy to allow me to disclose it in the book.
The HTS Ultra-Rack Hand Truck Sentry System is fastest, easiest and safest hand truck rack! HTS Systems / B&P Manufacturing / Working together and creating new delivery solutions for our fleet customers.
The HTS Ultra-Rack saves a route driver a minute or more per delivery stop, that's about 2.5 hours per week! It simple; save a minute per stop X 30 stops per day = 600 mins. per month or 120 hours per year X $10 per hour = $1,200 dollars in annual savings! For one delivery vehicle over a 4 year time period = $4,800 dollars in labor + $400 in fuel savings + $300 in hand truck replacements = $5,500 dollars! Include additional payload cargo area, less freight claims damage, less driver injuries, reduced liability and insurance costs = $2,000 per year or about $8,000 dollars in a four year time period! Prevent a workmen's compensation injury claim or an expensive liability lawsuit and well... you get the point! The HTS is a hand truck safety rack that's safer, faster, easier, a one-handed method; a patented solution that pays for itself over and over again! What other investment could you possibly make in your company and truck fleet that will give you that large of a return and that type of protection?
Any driver who rushes back (off-route) in a hurry to retrieve their forgotten hand truck is no longer a safe driver, they instantly become a liability! The ancient hand truck carrier racks of the past eventually fail and it usually occurs when the delivery truck is traveling. Often these types of failures result in catastrophic highway accidents, severe injuries and costly lawsuits and legal settlements.
The HTS Tilt Mount Ultra-Rack Hand Truck Sentry System offers many advantages over the older out-dated factory OEM hasp-bar and unsafe rubber strap carrier racks. The Hand Truck Sentry System eliminates the possibility of the driver leaving the hand truck miles behind; saving route time and fuel. The front OEM hasp-bar racks are not designed to accommodate hand truck models equipped with stair climbers or a nose plate extension. OEM hand truck racks allow hand trucks to tilt and lean outward and shift during vehicle movement. The Hand Truck Sentry System does not require padlocks to prevent theft or bungee cords to prevent leaning, vibration or movement. OEM and Aftermarket hand truck racks require two hands to off-load and reload the hand truck. You need only one hand to operate the HTS Ultra-Rack Hand Truck Sentry! Having an extra free hand to hold your paperwork or to allow the driver to firmly brace himself on slippery, ice or snow covered ground surfaces is extremely beneficial.

"The HTS significantly improves the productivity and performance of our route operations and our hand trucks always come home!"
MICHAEL MAY - FLEET OPERATIONS MANAGER - LT VERRASTRO COORS DISTRIBUTING - APRIL 2007 - customer 3 years
How the HTS Ultra-Rack works:
The vehicle arrives at the delivery location and the driver determines the hand truck is required. Prior to turning off the vehicle’s ignition, the driver activates the HTS release switch located in or under the interior cab dash. This action opens the HTS Ultra-Rack and releases the hand truck. The driver exits the vehicle, walks up to the HTS unit, moves the hand truck to the upright position and then pulls the lower section of the hand truck out, removing it from the HTS Ultra-Rack receiving chute.
After the delivery or pick-up, the driver fully inserts the hand truck into the HTS receiving chute and moves the hand truck forward contacting the HTS Push-Bar. The driver then rocks the hand truck forward firmly to a complete locked position for safe travel.
If the hand truck is not loaded aboard the vehicle or the HTS Ultra-Rack is not properly locked, the LED indicator light and alarm will sound when the truck is started. The HTS warns the driver before departure eliminating lost, forgotten and stolen hand trucks and retrieval time. The HTS saves fuel and time! The HTS Ultra-Rack Hand Truck Sentry System also allows for more cargo capacity and eliminates hand truck contact, preventing damage and freight claims.
The HTS Ultra-Rack saves a route driver a minute or more per delivery stop, that's about 2.5 hours per week! It simple; save a minute per stop X 30 stops per day = 600 mins. per month or 120 hours per year X $10 per hour = $1,200 dollars in annual savings! For one delivery vehicle over a 4 year time period = $4,800 dollars in labor + $400 in fuel savings + $300 in hand truck replacements = $5,500 dollars! Include additional payload cargo area, less freight claims damage, less driver injuries, reduced DOT fines, reduced liability and insurance costs = $2,000 every 4 years! Add it up, $5,500 dollars + $2,000 = $7,500 dollars per delivery vehicle over a 4 year time period! Save approximately $1,875 dollars every year, per delivery vehicle! Prevent a workmen's compensation injury claim or an expensive liability lawsuit and well... you get the point! Any driver who rushes back (off-route) in a hurry to retrieve their forgotten hand truck is no longer a safe driver, they instantly become a liability!

Every month large companies will spend millions of dollars marketing their products, advertising and protecting their brand's positioning, identity and reputation. Just one accident resulting in a serious injury or death caused by negligence can damage the reputation and inadvertently change the confidence and opinion of the buyer towards the brand's name. This consumer perception may take years to overcome, even if the company is later found not negligent or liable for a highway accident! Adverse media exposure that focuses on a brand name vehicle can have dire consequences.
When we visit with our HTS customers and their route drivers we discovered that most beverage distributors and food service employees are very protective as they proudly express their loyalty and the quality of their company's products and brands. Companies have long known that employee professionalism, attitude and appearance are extremely important to protect the brand's image. Providing new technology or equipment that allows route drivers to accomplish their tasks safer, faster and easier reduces daily stress and dramatically improves a driver's confidence and attitude.

In the commercial van market for companies that deliver parcels, documents, paper and janitorial products, food vending and medical supplies there are no ideal methods to safely transport a hand truck, without tossing it into the vehicle. Current methods take-up valuable cargo space and decrease payload storage, damage product and require greater physical effort to stow the hand truck. Parcel drivers constantly handle and shuffle their hand trucks within the van to gain access and to reach their cargo shelves and packages. A standard aluminum commercial hand truck transported inside the delivery van will use up approximately 12' -15' cubic feet of valuable cargo space. When a hand truck is transported inside a delivery van 5 days a week it translates to a payload loss of 240-300 cubic feet per month. Most parcel drivers move their hand truck out of their way continuously, actually handling it more than they use it for customer deliveries! It is dangerous and a DOT safety violation to transport a loose hand truck within the cab or cargo area, all equipment must be secured. The HTS Ultra-Rack is the most advanced hand truck securement system for commercial delivery vehicles in transit. The HTS-20S Swing Mount unit is designed for the rear of most delivery vans. The HTS-20S Swing Mount can solve nearly every issue associated with smaller delivery vans that transport hand trucks, saving our customers time, fuel, cargo space and profits! Maximize your cargo capacity and route productivity, reduce freight damage and prevent floor corrosion.
Why purchase the safest and best delivery equipment for your company? Because if it's the safest method, it will quickly pay for itself and because it's the best known product available, then you're not using something that's second rate and an inferior method.

I passed a bunch of logs in the sand, apparently where someone had gotten bogged down and had to use their firewood for traction.
I like to surf wikipedia. You know how it goes, you go to look at one thing and then you click a link on that page and then a link on the next page, eventually you end up on something completely unrelated. Well I stumbled on to the page for my car, a 2nd gen Honda Civic. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_Civic_(second_generation) . I am very proud of my car. I love it. I noticed the page doesn't have my year civic on the page. Mine is a facelift 1983. Pre-facelift models have round headlights where mine has rectangle. Anyways, I took the roof rack I usually have installed off and took some pictures to put on the wikipedia page.

This car is so much more comfortable now with the '98 civic seats we swapped in.
Update 12/12: now has a 1500 engine and a 5 speed :D
