Just one thing for us to consider is make sure you mount a stainless eyebolt on these mounts, that way you can chain your German shepard or Rottweiler to the motor. I park mine near the kennel and am glad that the neighbors don't mind the barking at night. Most of the times just a raccoon, but I always look out the bedroom window just in case.
Had a friend who was ripped off about two monthes ago, and he and I went to Radio shack and they have these inexpensive devices that sound off when beams or trip wires are set.
Thieves beware!
