Changed the oil/filter and the rear diff fluid this morning. Not too bad, but it will be easier next time around. Appreciate all the tips and insights, made it a breeze.
After I changed the fluids I went for a ride with my youngest boy. Beautiful day in TN! I went on some local trails that I have ridden on with my old Honda 300. Wow what difference! I feel like I get the best of both worlds, the maneuverability and the size of a large four wheeler with the comfort of a side-by-side. This thing is a little goat.
We’ve had tons of rain this year, As a result the mud holes are the size of a small swimming pool. I was able to maneuver around the mud holes with ease, I don’t think that would’ve been possible with a 60 inch machine. The stock rig did well, I didn’t want to push my luck without a winch. The maneuverability really impressed me, I was able to cut between two trees that were 55 inches apart to spare myself from going through a deep hole.The little pioneer, never missed a beat. I really appreciate the paddle shifting, very intuitive and natural.
My only negative was I wish I had a little more power. But truthfully that would probably get me in trouble. I think the pioneer has adequate power, especially in the trails.Now I need to do some mods, I think I’ll get a winch first.
