    Best lighting for your money...

    I run with a pair of VisionX LED's that have 4 10watt lenses each, and I tucked them inside the bumper cutout. I bought a VisionX dimmer switch which allows me to run with them on the road all the time. Total investment - about $800.00

    ADD Bumper in Winter Weather

    Strafe (Adam) has the same ADD bumper powder coated from them, and it only took 6 months for it to show signs of rust here with our abundance of salt coated roads. I agree with Gord, get it done locally (either powder or Linex) to deal with the conditions you have on a regular basis.

    Common problems with Raptor?

    My dealer gave me $45k when I traded my 2010 in for my 2012 - and that was with 60k (km) hard driving. The differences in the truck, as mentioned above, are more luxury but the core can still take a good pounding off-road. I`m not a huge fan of the Torsion front diff at high speeds, but with...

    Rigid or Vision-X fog light kit

    I put the VisionX Xmitter lights in my bumper and bought their dimmer switch to drive on the street with them. There are two switches - one's a push button and the other is a dial you can set. I'd recommend the dial switch as I have had quite a few people high-beam me lately even when it's set...

    Review Of China 2x2 Cubes & 30" Bar

    I'm running a pair of VisionX lights in the lower bumper with their dimmer switch. It allows me to run all the time with the lights on at 50% and when I need the boost at night I just flick a switch.

    Mud Puddle

    Well where I grew up there was no sand - only rocks and lots of mud, so my roots are playing in the slippery stuff. The sunroof allowed great ventilation, and all the mud that came in went on her side so it wasn't too bad!

    Mud Puddle

    Yeah, I played around for over 30 min trying to find a way out. But it was fun for the few people out with us that hadn't seen that kind of wheeling before!

    Mud Puddle

    AARG September 22 run in Edmonton - lots of trails were impassible due to trucks running 44's digging it out all season, but we found a few places to play... https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10151937730834283&set=o.123542591151484&type=2&theater...
