Great photos! Thanks for posting them!

Welcome to BMT! Glad to have ya!! Those CL Elites are pretty common here in the States. The gold dog usually means that it has Mack engine, tranny and rears...pedigreed, so to speak! If its rough work you have to do...then the camelbacks are a good choice, (your back and kidneys won't agree) but they are very tough and stable in off road conditions. Hope you enjoy working with your new dog! Keep us posted!
