A motorized standup utility vehicle having a golf bag mounting system to mount a golf bag. The golf bag mounting system enables the golf bag to swivel in multiple positions (left, right, center) and rotate and tilt between a range of 90 degrees (vertical) to 30 degrees (horizontal) positions. The golf bag mounting system comprises an upper bag support assembly, a lower bag support assembly, a swivel mounting plate, a cradle bracket, a bushing plate and a cylindrical tube which are all connected by connecting bolts. Further bungee cords are used to secure a golf bag to the golf bag mounting system.

Embodiments provide an aerodynamic toolbox assembly comprising a toolbox coupled to a tractor trailer and an aerodynamic fairing assembly coupled to the toolbox. At least one fairing component extends beyond a selected surface of the toolbox to facilitate aerodynamic air flow past the toolbox during normal operation of the trailer.

A rear seat latch release device is easily installed to a portion of a rear seat holding mechanism so the rear seat can be released and more effectively folded down. The rear seat latch release device is specifically designed to surround the factory latch, and allow a pull strap to be added, which can more easily and effectively operate the rear seat latch. Components of the rear seat latch release device are designed to easily cooperate with several variations in the factory latch, thereby allowing installation in many different situations.
