The P5 held her own this week MT elk hunting! The only side x side in the group. My buds were very impressed how it performed on the 50” trails with their Ranchers and Foremans! They all wanted to ride it all week :).

I ran my P520 this morning while doing some chores. It was the coldest day that I have run it so far: ~40 degrees. When I started to shift it through the gears, I thought it wasn't shifting. I had to look at the dash board display to make sure it was...and in fact it was. It has never shifted so smoothly. I am assuming it has something to do with the cooler temps. But the hard shifting was gone. It was smooth as silk and practically unnoticeable. I have a whopping 65 miles on my 520, and I bought it in April.

Today I moved my dad’s hunting blind into the woods. Two years ago a Suzuki 400 King Quad could just move it. Last year a Yamaha 600 Grizzly move it with no problems. This year the p520 move the blind just as good as the Grizzly. I was surprised the p520 did as good as the Yamaha with the p520 engine being about 80cc less.

Finally put the Pioneer to work hauling firewood I cut months ago from a tree that got struck by lightning this summer out of the woods. Did about 10 loads like this. Too bad it sat on the ground so long…

Nice job. Need to organize mine wiring since the original 2016 effort. Lots of excellent examples shown since that time.
I may have to move my breakers to somewhere else. When we got back from the PC ride they where covered in mud, and though I've sprayed them off a couple of times, they still have sand in them and don't want to work properly. I've had a heck of a time getting all the sand from there rinsed out of everything.

This is where I put mine. It stayed clean there.

So far I haven't had any problems with the fuse box. It's the breakers that I mounted by the second battery (under driver's seat) that I'm going to have to do something about. I kinda figured I might have a problem when I mounted them where I did.
