This one will be a little more boring than the red one but I should still document its progression.

It got terra 45 the other day. Great price of $188 using Amazon prime.

I don't think so, my father purchased this one but is letting me mod it with his wallet. He won't do extreme as it will primarily be a hunting and garden rig.

It won't be lonely though with its two Honda buddies.

That's what they all say! Give it a year and he will have so much done to it you won't even recognize it. Lol

@CumminsPusher, the vehicle name is just for you

I really hate that. I'm doing all I can to get away those statements from people. Haven't heard it in a bit so maybe close lol.

I went down to Oreilly auto parts and picked up a Super Start AGM in their power sports section. It fits nicely. Still got to get a isolator and better get a hold down strap.

This battery was $50 cheaper than the odyssey but it's AH rating is lower. It should be sufficient. They had bigger ones but I was saving a few dollars for the next mod.

Here's some interesting notes about this white one:

1: throttle input seems smoother than the red one with over a 1000 miles

2: the shift solenoids are a lot quieter than the red one

3: engine noise seems to be louder on the white one. But the red one has dynomat everywhere and the bubble wrap under the seat.

5: finally got all the bed and door rattles fixed

6: the front alignment is way off and I still haven't fixed that.

7: we have decided to do the same snorkel as the red one. It will also get all the other vents snorkeled.

8: I found some anti fatigue floor mats at Harbor Freight for $10 and put them in the bed for a bed mat. Not sure how well it will hold up.

9: it's a lot faster than my overweight 5 seater. It's a dramatic difference.

10: not sure where I'll put lights with out the oem bumper.

11: so far, I haven't had to adjust a single cable anywhere!

Ugh, man you got me itching to expand my stable now.... Mama says she wants a blue 3 seater, so I'm waiting for 17 models to hit, I thought I saw something about a blue color being an option. Congrats and happy modding!

I'm just not sure yet. I really like my cubes on the corners by the windshield. I can reach out and aim the driver side while driving and the passenger can aim theirs. Those corner lights wouldn't work with the big light bar. Then there's the snorkel head that will be in the way.

Plus, the white can't out do the red one on lights!

Maybe I'll upgrade my 40" curved to a 5watt version. They are 400 watts vs the 240 I've got now. Then I can use my current 240 watt on the white one.

As for the deluxe wheels and tires, I keep those on most of the time unless I'm going on a ride somewhere. The stockers do good for around the house trails and running down to momma's house.
