    I have to shake my head every time I read a post about why the Moomba doesn't have this or that feature that someone saw on a Supra, MC, Malibu, etc. Remember, we bought the Honda equivalent in the car world so we shouldn't expect it to have all the bells and whistles that the Acura, Lexus, Mercedes have.
    Al, I understand that Moomba is a price point boat. There are differnt bells and whistels that a Moomba does not have and I agree with. There are some other things that Moomba is behind the times with. I know that Malibu's old price point boat before the Axis has dual fuel points. I have not seen an Axit so I do not know if they also have dual fuel points.

    Yeah, it's a tough call for the guys deciding what bells and whistles to add and what not too. The guy making these decisions at Moomba and at Malibu obviously have differing opinions. I bet that if you look hard enough, there will be something the Moomba has that the Malibu pricepoint boat does not. The hydraulic wakeplate for example is one significant feature that Moomba includes that another manufacturer might not.

    All you folks are just driving the wrong vehicles imo. My Touareg has the cap on the right side just like the LSV. Just fill it up on the lake. It was only a smoooooth 4.83 on Lanier Wednesday.

    Seems like a lot of work over something pretty simple as putting gas in the tow rig before hooking your boat up and heading to lake. I may be spoiled in the fact thou that my ramp is less than 5 mins away and I pass 2 gas stations on the way. 3 if you count the marina gas
