SvenS, I liked the rear-positioned control housing, and easy-to-do with two holes and a spring clip.
I didn't care for the small TID display pod, but it sure worked out to be used to make their microMAX series.
You're right, the Toltec II in the Cortes or DeLeon configuration would have been better ... and even better than those two models as well.
I always looked for any 'hot' Tesoro specimen, and periodically we found them.
