Status: offline 		have you looked at the frame for the Gaui 425? it looks like they chopped the front off the 550 and slapped a short boom on it... I really think Gaui dropped the ball on this one. it's almost like they were in a rush to have something...anything that was in the same size market as the trex 500..there is no way I'd ever think about buying one.. I'm going to buy a 550.. it's bigger and cost a lot less..
