The Fit is actually shorter than the S... from online sources it shows:
Fit = 151.4 inches
S - 162.7 inches
WAY taller and wider though
I wonder if my S car cover would work at all... We have a nasty tree over top the bottom parking space in the driveway that dumps all kinds of crap on whatever car is there.

You stuff looks good
It's such a wonderful feeling to step back and see what you have done
And even after you have had existing landscaping, the work never stops
This spring I got my Walking Stick / Contorted Hazelnut planted and the huge old fallen over Lilac removed
I still am shopping for 3 more white/red Rose of Sharon / Hibiscus Syriacus that have to go in, the last part of fixing where the Lilac was
And, I have 7 new Forsythia bushes that need to go in

I saw the walking stick when I was at the Garden Factory and decided I need to find a way to incorporate one into my landscape in the back of the house. So cool!
I still have so much work to do in the front on the house. I will be building a retaining wall and creating a two-tiered design for the front yard with a flowering pear tree as the focal point. All I need is about a week off from work and a thousand dollars....

I needed something that would not get too tall, would fill in some width, and would not look like a naked bush int he winter
Once The Walking stick gets big it should do all of these nicely
And, should look totally cool in the winter when the real shape of the limbs show
I think it's a great choice for you too as it is sure to become a conversation piece!

Very cool Chris. Now that the drive is done, I'm going to diving headlong into doing yardwork and maintenance.
