RV TRAVEL
Many don ' t consider how much of the bar can be seen from the driver ' s seat. Yep, I want to be able to see both the left and right hoops just poking above the bonnet line. That gives me a great idea of how close I ' m getting to rocks, logs, and other offroad protrusions, and it helps to avoid ' touch parking ' other vehicles as I reverse park into a tight parking space.
As for colour, I ' d be happy with plain ol ' black, but any bar can be colour-coded if needed, albeit at an extra price. Following on with the colour, the whole bar needs to look good. Obviously, what I think looks good could be different to everyone else, but there are some bars out there that look simply crap, in my opinion.
Then there ' s the almighty price tag. Yep, I know you get what you pay for, but if I can save a few bucks on a decent, quality bar, that would give me more fuel money to get out and explore or more leftover dollars to buy more accessories!
A perch to sit on; absolutely essential!
