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

With nerfs you don't even need an engine, it just knows where to go and will coast you up the mountain. 😏

with sled dogs you don't need an engine.

Don't laugh. One of these days you will get the video.

I don’t doubt it for a moment

I took out the white plastic gas neck that is inside of the fuel tank and I now have added another 1/2 gallon of gas. I also inserted my cable camera into it to look at the float and fuel pump.

I washed the mud from last Saturday off of it. There was mud everywhere. Are they allowed to be clean or do I have to go out and get it dirty again?

Clean is a relative term for off road toys.

So you think there is still some mud stuck somewhere on it?

Maybe I better go do some more washing before the military white glove inspection.

I was thinking more the other direction…if you can get in and drive it without getting an obvious sign of dirt on ya….it’s clean enough.

but my wife is less tolerant of dirt than I am.

Like I said…clean is relative. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Clean it to showroom condition. That’s my recommendation

I may never have time to ride it if I do that.

Dirt is a right of passage. Wife's know this is a must for anyone driving a sxs. It's like going on a date all cleaned up before the date hot and sweaty while out dancing. 😇🤠😆

I put on a KFI products winch mount and universal receiver hitch for Bambi hauling. I was tired of the deer getting muddy and it would bottom out once in a while. High quality and made in the U.S.A. $102 total.

Getting prepped for deer camp 🙂
Removed windshield and rear panel to reduce wind resistance/ stone chips.

OK here is is for all of you who didn't believe we really do it. A short clip from our run at the corn maze yesterday afternoon.

Since it looks like no one us using their P5 any more I guess I will tell you what I have been doing with mine. Nothing real exciting but anytime it is cool enough I've been running the sled dogs. Trying to schedule it to not mess it up for the guys I let hunt on the farm. Today it is in the 40s so it is warm enough I didn't do long runs. Took 10 dogs our for 4 miles. 3 groups of 2 and one of 4 dogs. Will soon be taking the full team out at once. Been too warm to get in the conditioning we really need. Just like with humans you don't go from the couch to a marathon over night. Well, maybe you guys do but most of us don't.
Get your buggies out of the shed and go do something exciting. I need entertainment.

Got the Dingo stuck out back today, buried to the frame in sand and topsoil that I was spreading. Used the P5 to get it out. Tried just hooking up a strap and pulling it out first but ended up using the winch. Glad I didn't switch it over to the plow strap yet. No pics but, unfortunately, it happened.
Oh yeah, also got some new rear lights. The other ones took a crap, they were cheap Amazon ones. Changed the relay, switch, fuse... screw it. These are supposed to be brighter and they look black.

Nothing hugely exciting here, other than the daily use of the P5 for getting to the horse barn. However, for the last 3 weeks I have used the P5 to pull out and push in my fuel tank replacement project - my '91 GMC Jimmy plow truck rusted a hole in the fuel tank and since I still have not organized the crap in my barn good enough to make a work space, I have to pull the tractor and P5 out of the barn to have a work area. So when the week-end is over, have to take the project back out to put the tractor and P5 back in for the week.
