A little late to the game here. Just been enjoying the new truck. I added WeaterTech floor liners front and rear, Lexus all-weathers third row and cargo area, WeatherTech window trim, and have been treating, religiously, the seats with Lexol leather cream. Interior portions (non-leather) have been cleaned and wiped down w/ Chemical Guy's interior treatments. The outside has a RockGuard treatment covering the full front, 1/4 way up the front quarter panels, door cups, roof half way back to the sunroof, full side mirrors and a-pillars.

I am doing a wheels off resto on my '93 Miata in the Summer so the GX will sit as it is now (minus a detailing) and we will see how it goes. The Miata, of course, will come out of the resto zone in order to have some fun then get back up to finish.

We had a long trip over the weekend and the bugs were just too much. Got some bug spray, washed the truck really good and topped it off with GTechniq C2v3 Liquid Crystal.

Did a little soft roading... wish I had taken a picture of the access road to this area... that was not soft roading at all and had to ride the high side of ruts with rocks or I would be on the frame. Possibly a punched oil pan on a CUV if they weren't careful. I do plan to get additional skids for the bottom and just be extra careful with the running boards for now. Sliders at some point. Some roads still had a lot of snow and are still being used by sleds.

Thanks bbqsoup!! Nice seeing yours as well. Liking the scenery in your pics. I've tried to keep several coats of wax on mine as it is probably going to be more dirty than not.

PS... Thanks for heads up....forgot about adventure thread... I'll post stuff there next time.

Nice pics!!! Wish I could have found a fully decked model like yours. Those were rare in my search. The Wide View monitor for off-roading would have been nice to have. Might have to look at something third party for mine.

I bought some larger ones for closets and kitchen pantry and happy with them. This is the small version I put in the GX. Motion activated and USB rechargeable.

Thanks! I found some other ones since one you linked to was out of stock. I have some of these on another car too.

Yes, I can't find a good place for this in my GX. I mouted it as shown in my MDX but it doesn't work in the GX due to the top sliding piece. I could fit my .380 in there or purchase something else.
