Thanks for sharing your experience. Truck looks good with the wrap. Looks like you had some fun out there and using it for what it is meant to do!

Haha! All the pics got uploaded in multiples for some reason. We went just west of Cedar City over south west of Three Peaks and the mines.
Cedar superchargers are pretty super! Sometimes I have to use Kyle from Out of Spec's trick of damp microfiber cloth on the handle to get the full 250kW. Occasionally when below 20% I get 254kW!

And they are never full!

That sounds amazing. Love the photos!

That dirt road seemed fairly smooth tho compared to some, but a couple of the vacation rentals I manage are on dirt roads and the Y suspension sucks (my one complaint about the car) and can't wait for the huge difference with the CT!

Nice. I need to try Baja mode next time I go off pavement. Did you experience any vault dust infiltration?
The vault can get very dusty.

I bought an electric air compressor to plug into the CT that I spray the dust out with. And then I spray it down with water after getting back to civilization.

Where/how mount the winch? Curious.

Also how dusty does the vault get just tooling around the Valley...

-from the Tuke
This is the model I purchased. It isn’t physically mounted, but could be hooked up to either the front or the rear (tow hooks on front or trailer hitch on rear). It runs on 110 volt, so the CT is it’s power provider. I also bought the “rigging” kit with bag to store it. It fits in the frunk or sub-bed. It only has a 15 foot lead, so I’m going to add a longer tow st

I used a plug-in 1 gallon air compressor with a spray attachment to blow the dust out of the vault after getting back from 4x4ing on forest roads at the north rim of the Grand Canyon. The vault was REALLY dusty but blew out easily.

I’m gonna see if there is a space below the bed to add addition air compression tanks so that I can fill them and have them ready so that I don’t need to wait on my air compressor to refill my 1 gallon air tank.

I off-roaded at the North Rim of the Grand. Canyon and filled the vault with dust. But I’d brought an air compressor with sma spray nozzle and sprayed it out. I still have dust around the liner to the sun-bed storage, but that will wash out easily. The vault drains from both the tailgate and the cab ends. Makes it nice when spraying out the bed with water, as it doesn’t accumulate near the cab.
