P500 What did you do to/with your Pioneer 500 today?

[100Acre]

Today I relearned to fly. I even got up on one and two tires at full tilt.
Drifting like a Tornado. Fixing the Fix. Fixing to Fly.
Making tracks in the mud
I was relearning the high!

Homage to the mighty P5

Oh P500, you are always ready for action.
Your price and size are your greatest attraction.
But the slightest bump puts my back into traction.

I didn't buy you for speed.
You top out at forty-three.
That exceeds my usual need.

You can practically climb a tree.
But breaking backs is your creed.
And oh how I miss my kidney.

When I step hard on the gas
You really bounce my fat ass
While the other SxS's all pass

Despite all that I smile
Because you go on for miles
Even if my chiropracter is on speed dial

Are we a little bored today?
Couldn’t help but smile, thanks.

Just NTC shenanigans spilling over. 🤣
Enjoy your hump day!

Installed some tunes today! It’s just the radio and a pair of 4” speakers for now. I do have a pair of 8’s and several subs and amps laying around the garage for a future project!

Installed a front bumper and winch.

What brand bumper is that? Looks sweet!

Thanks! EMP makes it.

Gave mine a bath in Craig's Creek near Covington, VA and then enjoyed a beer while cooling off. Not my favorite IPA but it got the job done.

I really like that! Your pic looks better than the ones on their website IMO. My fan comes on more with my big bore kit so I'm nervous about blocking any of the radiator. But I'm contemplating!

Just work

Perhaps add a Spall fan....🤔

That’s the cool thing about the P5. Of all the SXS’s, I think it’s the most worked...very versatile...👍

I thought I saw a better aftermarket fan somewhere thanks Monte! And I might put it on a SPDT switch for Manual/Auto. Just when I go slow and work it hard the fan kicks on/off in 10 second intervals. Just like to leave it on for a minute or so. The thermostat opens around 180F but the fan doesn't kick on till like 210F (still 2 bars). Running down the road she'll hold 180-185 but I just don't like working it a long time at 205-215. (Never hit 3 bars since installed gauge so no idea what temp that is) One of those things it's probably just fine but since I can watch the numbers I gotta control them better LOL!

You inspired this Haiku:

Won't go sixty but who cares
Belts are for dummys

Excellent job @JeremieBaker, when I make up poems my wife just says "why is always about sex?"

Had that problem on my previous built rig. Paid way too much attention to that nice temp gauge I put in. I got my monies worth lookin at it. Everyone just keep your radiators clean....

I know this is an older post but this came in real handy. My club car seat arrived today and I was figuring out how I would approach mounting it. I found several pics of mounted rear seats but none showing how exactly it was mounted. Great job & thank you!
