It's not bad, but I think I would move as many of those roof vents to the back side as you can. Cut em' down a bit too, 2' of abs sticking outta the roof is rediculous.

Sorry, wish I could move or trim them, but they are not ABS. Some sort of brittle clay/fiber combination (Track home built in the fifties).

I spend all my home improvement money on Hobie cats for the family.

Google Street View's photo of my house was originally taken while my H18SX was parked in front, then Google updated the photos while I was renovating the house and now there's a photo of my house with a blue porta-potty (aka my half bath) in front. From glory to the gutter.

Nice feature on Google earth that most people don't know about is that if you click on the clock in the toolbar you can go back and look at the older views. They tell you exactly when they took the pictures, too.

Also, they don't always default to the most recent view, but the most recent/most clear view.
