I used E.R.V. to tear up some weeds/grass on the circle drive and run the perimeter trail on our property.

I also put him to work moving a little rock, he did OK getting the rock up on the steel plate being used as a skid and even dragged it half way to the spot I wanted the rock before digging 4 holes going up the loose sandy/gravel driveway hill, had to pull out the big gun, our chevy express AWD van which pulled the rock with ease but it was to big to get the rock where I needed it so back to E.R.V. which easily pulled it to its final resting place.

After all that I hooked up this lame driveway box I made to grade the driveway and putted around in circles on the driveway leveling out the ruts E.R.V. left earlier.

Pictures to come later if anyone is interested, my hot spot is just to slow to up load anything from here in the woods.

Stripped all the hardware off the P5 's trailer today. I've put off getting it Line X'd for too long so I'm taking it in to finally finish it. @100Acre lit a fire under my ass in another thread so I plan to take it out over Labor Day and use it. Hope it doesn't get me stuck.

Got the trailer all put back together after having it Line X'd. After adding the back window panel and hitching this up, I noticed that the old stuff was looking pretty dingy. Worked my ass off trying to make it pop again and I was surprised how well it cleaned up. Figured I'd get some pics because after the amount of scrubbing it took, it may never look this clean again.

What did they charge to mount the tires? My dealer told me $5 per tire. When the new tires came in, didn't have time to go to the dealer so had a local tire chain mount them and the bill was $66!! $15 per tire! I was not happy and let them know I won't be back for any more goods or services from them ever again.

I’m not sure exactly. He said $50NZD to change a set. I was quoted $850 installed. They had to order them in. I went to pay bill and it only came to like $785. So i didn’t complain . We get ripped here in NZ but I do think my dealer is looking after me somewhat. They are good guys but sure they could lexus go cheaper .

Dug out an old aluminum tool box that came with a semi I bought back in 2004. Nice diamond plate aluminum but never had anywhere to use it. Fitted it to the Pioneer rack and I think it will be perfect to bring along all my stuff. Not sure if I'll polish it up to a bright aluminum finish or just spray it with a black bed coating. Probably the bed coating. Would like to mount a shovel and axe on the lid and a rotopak to the side.

I think the box will be perfect; just need to attach it in a secure and non-permanent way so I can keep my cargo area modular. Trying to figure out how much room to leave between it and the ROPS so I can mount a couple of rifle cases there.
