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

For those with soft tops, do they trailer OK at highway speeds?

I trailer it in an enclosed trailer Mudder

Thanks @fuimus, looking at enclosed trailers too but overall height is 75 with OEM hard roof and 27 in. tires. Also big brown truck dropped of the multi hitch, looks solid, thanks to others for sharing the product.

Clearance on my trailer is 74 inches

When I originally bought my Bimini top, I was told to remove it.

A blessing of friends. A couple of my buddies came over to help get me up to speed on the P5. I'm leaving in a couple of weeks and wanted much of the P5 done for now. We attached the side mirrors, finished installing the winch, the Hi-Lift Jack, horn, turn signals, tidied up all the wiring, painted the rear rack board and placed the big black tool box not nailed down yet..., mounted the license plate holder with illuminated light and there is still more to come. For some reason, the license plate illuminating light stays on, so we installed a toggle switch in front of the drivers cup holder that controls the horn, turn signals and plate light illuminator. I also installed the winch control switch on top of the steering column between the two paddle shifters. The external control for the hand held winch control we mounted just below the A in Honda. Had to shave a little of the grill, but its a nice fit. The turn signal lights and horn toggle are mounted in the dash.
Waiting for more pictures to upload...

I love Montana! I used to live in Libby back in 1995 and west Yellowstone and Bozeman. I was working an archaeological dig in Lower Geyser Basin near Madison on an old soldier fort that burned down around 1902. I've been going to Montana every year for the past 8 looking for retreat areas.

Cool concept Solrus. I'm wondering if those carbides will dig enough to turn with two tracks pushing you?

 

[solrus]

I think it would, I made bigger 1 inch wide keel from uhmw plastic that should help to steer in the snow. If I go on snow packed road, not sure how this double row carbide will behave.

Can't wait to see it, very cool!

So because I had the issue of needing to install a isolator switch to shut off the Tusk license plate illuminator, we just re-installed a switch that illuminates itself in a blue hue. I also got the Erickson Wheel Chocks mounted on the trailer. The air here is thick like salty warm Jell-O. Perfect if you're a crusty prehistoric dinosaur. I'm not that old....

Took the chocks off and repainted to match...then mounted with stainless steel hardware. Got the other Jerry can holders and will be mounting all four soon. Two red cans for gas, one tan for water if I need to carry extra beyond my 20 gallon tank in the camper and one black one for my grey water collection.

Morning Ride at Tall Pines ATV Park. It's a little muddy but the trails are awesome. I'm going places the bigger SXS's can't go. So happy with my decision to get the P500.

Installed power steering on my P 500 today, best money spent so far.

 

[Mudder]

@trigger , more peer pressure for power steering! LOL

Spent Sunday doing tree work at my sportsmen's club. The P500 sure makes that work a lot easier, much better than trying to use the truck in the woods. Being able to drag trees and limbs out to work on them easier or to get rid of really cuts the work load down.

Sunday we put about 60 miles through this. Great time!!
