After a week of this mundane driving to and from work and two weeks of rain here in NC. I felt compelled to tackle some light mods to my 2015TEP. I started blacking out the grey valances that I hate and stock rack. Valances are plastidiped and rack is truck bed rhino lined.
I did some light trail riding at first because I haven't ever driven the runner offroading had to test her legs. Picked up a hitch hiker who I now believe lives in my garage some where. (Don't tell my wife)
I found some local trails I wanted to tackle but first had to stretch the dogs legs and mine.
Fast forward weeks later. The weather broke and I had some time off. Did some parts shopping online and found what I wanted for my runner. 5100's all around on hankook dynapro 265/70/17s. All great prices on Amazon. I also have another project I am working out on in the garage. 2010 370Z 40th anniversary edition. https://vimeo.com/142267190
I installed a k&n cai and Armytrix valvatronic exhaust system. But back to the runner.
Time to adventure in the woods and get lost and muddy. (Note: the hood glare issue is easy resolved cheaply if you get it dirty).
Every great story
Had to try my best to flex the suspension without sliding down the muddy trails haha or so I told myself haha.
Most challenging spot I found. Walked it, not very steep but deep channels and large pot holes from others getting stuck and digging in. It was wet muddy and washed out. Couldn't ask for a better spot to test out crawl control and terrain settings. Well the runner made light work of it. I was expecting more resistance and challenge but found east with Kdss crawl and terrain controls engaged. Truly need to find a location to test the runners strengths and weaknesses.
For hours later of trail adventure realizing it was later than I thought I had to stop and let the dogs stretch there legs again found an awesome field to do just that.
Some where in these picture are two very happy dogs playing tag haha. One hour later it was time to get lost further in the woods haha.
And then this happen. A cross road with five options. Don't you hate when this happens. I wanted to chose them all but I saved the adventure for another day. It's now noon and time to feed the doggies. Homeward bound till next time.
More to come in the up coming weeks. Stay tuned. Next time I'll remember to charge and pack my actual camera equipment. Sorry for the cellphone pics.
The end result of my four plus hour venture into the unknown. Just found out about image limitation at the end of the post sorry pics won't follow story any longer as I have to remove and resubmit.
