Survey Contest Winners!!

CONGRATULATIONS FROM STOWAWAY2

It's an annual tradition here at StowAway2: a $100 prize to a randomly-drawn StowAway2 owner who takes the time to fill out our customer satisfaction survey. Drumroll, please...

And the Winner Is:

Daryl Winn from Boulder, CO!

Daryl and his wife travel regularly by RV, traipsing the North American continent with StowAway2 in tow.

This year, for the first time, we also conducted a StowAway2 photo contest, also with a top prize of $100. The results were amazing, with pictures sent in from Alaska to Florida, and everywhere in between.

And First Place goes to:

Howard Rogers of Roswell, Georgia!

Again, congratulations from all of us here at StowAway2. Check out a few of Howard's prize-winning flicks:



These pictures will also be featured prominently on the brand-new StowAway2.com. We thank Howard for letting us use his shots. We might have mentioned this before, but the original StowAway2 Cargo Carrier was designed by a team of duck hunters, like Howard and company. Check out the history here.

Check back soon for some results from our customer survey. Thanks to everyone who took the time to send in their feedback!

Memorial Day Greetings

I know we're a little late, but Happy Memorial Day! We hope everyone had a great weekend. We know a lot of you probably broke out the barbeques over the past few days. Have you considered a StowAway2 Tailgate Station, the best way to take your party on the road?

In other news, a great web resource came across our desks this morning: Automotive Total. Automotive Total is a full-fledged online Automotive Web Directory, with information and links to products, services, companies, and auto information. A handy one-stop shop! Definitely worth bookmarking.

Stay tuned: StowAway2 contest winners will be announced this week!

Secondly, there's some even better news: winners of the StowAway2 Survey and Photo Contests will be announced shortly. Keep checking this page to see if you're one of the lucky StowAway2 owners that will be receiving a $100 check in the mail!

Toyota Sienna Field Report

This just came across our desks today, a great owner's report straight from the field. If you're interested in one man's experience with placing a StowAway2 on his Toyota Sienna minivan (with pictures), go here.



Here's our favorite quote:

"All in all, it's a pretty cool device. well suited for the purpose. I prefer this to a rooftop carrier, not just because there's no climbing, but because the squarish shape is more useful and easier to pack. Rooftop carriers create lots of aero drag and have a bad reputation for getting crushed in low clearance situations and flying open (or worse, completely off) on the freeway. This thing is rock solid."

Thank you, sir, for the kind words!

Top of the Line

Happy Monday! There's nothing like some StowAway2 Owner-submitted pictures to get the week off to a great start. Check out the Black MAX on a 2006 Range Rover HSE: it doesn't get much better than this.

Special thanks to Dr. R from California for these wonderful pictures. Have any pictures of your StowAway2 and vehicle? Send them in!
