I don't do much wildlife photography, so I was super excited to get these shots. They're thought to be nearly extinct. Over-hunting has had the biggest impact on their numbers. They like to travel in packs of 2, 4, 6, 8, and up, so seeing this one out solo says something about how seriously they've been affected. I'm just glad I had my zoom.

Bought some paint on truck bedliner today from the auto parts store and cleaned and painted the inside of the P5 bed and got a few new stainless lag bolts to hold the bed on and some new turnbuckles to hold the frosty adult beverage cooler in. Washed her up again and dried her off. Sprayed her down with Tire Foam to make everything shine. The wife put her up for sale on Facebook for me. It'll be sad to see her go, but theres probably a P700 in my future at some point down the road.

We took it to the sporting clay course. Came home and put a new air filter in and change the headlight bulbs so they will match the off rode lights in color (bright white).View attachment 190169

They match up nice! Can you share the brand of bulb you installed in the headlight buckets?
Thanks,
j

I'm looking forward to your 700 build, if that's the way you go.

Got around to painting my homemade bumper. Pretty happy with how it turned out, just needs a light bar. I plan to start building a kayak/canoe rack soon... If anyone has built one, I'd love to see it. I'd like to be able to remove it easily. 20200305 170103

Truly nice skills, especially if you did McGyver style welding with car batteries and a nickel. That Strongmade design is the best.

You'll love the BH 2.0's. I originally wanted the Ripsaws but the weight concerned me. The BH's with the SS212 wheels seemed about as light as the stock wheels and tires. Night and day difference though.
